The Man's Reaction to Pregnancy

So far since being pregnant Wes and I have had several weddings and parties to go to.  I've encountered 3 reactions from men when revealing that I'm pregnant.

Here's what I've come across so far.

# 1. The Runner

"The Runner" is that guys who strikes up a conversation with a nice girl.  Conversation is going great.  Then somehow the, "what are you drinking?" question pops up and I have to confess my fake gin and tonic is just a sprite with a lime because I'm pregnant.  Immediately "The Runners" face changes to a slightly sour look as if a black cloud just appeared over my head.  He ends the conversation and when I turn around for 1 second he's gone.

# 2. Total Uncle Creepy

"Total Uncle Creepy" is that ease dropper while you are having that conversation with "The Runner" and as soon as he hears the words "I'm Pregnant" it appear that "Uncle Creepy" picks up the scent of my extra hormonal state and starts drooling!!  A bit flattering at first since you just got dissed by "The Runner" but then "Uncle Creepy" tells you how sexy you are while staring at your boobs like a big piece of steak.  Quickly find your husband or the nearest exist.

#3. The Care Bear

This one is my personal favorite.  "The Care Bear" is that guy who finds out you're pregnant and instantly asks if you need anything or wants to know how you are feeling.  Every time he goes to the bar he comes back with a water or ginger ale.  If there is something on "The Care Bears" plate that you've been eyeballing for 20 min. he takes notice and gladly hands it over.  When at a wedding "The Care Bear" makes sure you have a piece of both the Grooms chocolate cake and the Brides yellow cake.   It truly is amazing at how this group of men reacts to a woman who is preggos.

This weekend Wes and I are heading to another fun wedding!!  Wish me luck that I find lots of "Care Bears" and that I am able to avoid "Uncle Creepys" and "Runners"

Busy, Busy, Busy!!!!

Hello World!!

I apologize for not blogging for the last week and a half.  I'm so tired and I'm not sure if it's from my sweet baby draining the life out of me or if it's because I've been working so much I haven't been home before 7pm in ages!!

I'm not sure what to blog about because for the last 2 weeks I've been thinking about nothing but  one of our new projects at work.  So i just figured I'd share that with the world.

We just started the Interior Concept of a Yacht Club....

Here are a couple of "before" photos and the "after" interior concept renderings.

My boss did the renderings and I come up with the overall theme and color scheme.  Now you have a feel for what I do.  I'm just trying to make the world Beautiful one job at a time.

Just Call Me "Diablo" AKA Devil!!!

Well I'm pretty much going thru all the emotional phases while being pregnant that I've read about.

#1. Being Excited - CHECK
#2. Starting to Worry - CHECK
#3. Having a Total Emotional Breakdown - CHECK
#4. Being Really Excited Again - CHECK
#5. The Devil Phase - Currently In

In the past (3) days I have caught myself just staring at my poor husband and thinking, I wish he would just get the hell out of here!!!  I have the most wonderful, loving husband in the world.  And he's really funny and has been super sweet since I found out I was pregnant.  So I feel just awful.  But just seeing him, sitting there on the sofa, watching the Golf Channel makes me want to Scream!

I also put both of my animals on the back porch yesterday, just hoping they would run away, cause they were getting on my nerves too!  (totally just kidding about the hoping they would run away part, sort of)

I'm too tired to Cook.  I'm too tired to Clean.  And I just don't want to do a damn thing.
Hopefully this phase will end soon.  In the meantime, if you have any easy crock pot recipes or easy recipes in general, that would help with the cooking part.  Send them my way please.

Baby Update!!

We just had our 2nd doctors appointment!!! I now know everything there is to know about having a baby.  I love the Doctor that we are seeing and I love the whole office full of nice people.

We had our 2nd ultrasound and baby Mathis is now 2" long and has a nice healthy heart beat.  See for yourself how beautiful our baby is.....

Ha Ha Ha!!! For real here is Baby Mathis (can you guess what that arrow might be pointing to in the second picture?!)......

So we DO NOT officially know what we are having but the Doctor and Nurse both said there is a 75% chance that our baby has a PENIS!!!!  Tune in next appointment for a confirmation.
