Oh my I wish I could stop making these lists in my head, I just thought of another list I need to make and it is driving me absolutely nuts. I now can not wait for my little one even more, just to get these damn lists out of my head. Usually when I write my lists down on paper, I feel much better. But now I’m thinking “oh no what did I forget?”… no Pamela you just want more and more to do! I think I’m just trying to keep my mind off the fact that I’ll have a baby squeezing out of my body soon, I can’t wait for my little man but at the same time I am scared out of my mind. Fine I’ve admitted it, I’m getting a bit scared. The scariest thing though? Not knowing when he’ll be laying in my arms…he decides that not me & well that’s not fun at all.

I still haven’t finished the little ones room just yet. I still need some home lighting for his room, something so that I can go into his room at night and not light up the whole house. I still need to buy the chocolate wall border, it’s just a plain chocolate strip but much easier then trying to paint a straight line & not getting paint on the ceiling. :p At first we thought about putting up crown molding but there is LARGE molding on the bottom so we weren’t really sure how that would look, but oh my gosh just look at all the pretty crown molding!! :LOL: See the picture above? I really wish that’s how our hardwood floors were, they are so nice & bright looking. I’d love that room in a chocolate brown instead of pink too…. yum!! Oh my I can’t help it but when I go onto decorating sites, I spend waaaaay too long day dreaming about all the wonderful things that could be done to this place. 

Why does something as simple as new sheets make me happy? Oh man I just love new sheets but hadn’t gotten any new ones in a year!! For me that seems like a lifetime, I’ve been such a good girl at not buying tons of duvets, sheets & comforters this year. But now I’m contemplating get the duvet for the sheets I got…but I can’t decide on matching with chocolate or going with the water blue duvet. What do you think? By the way have I mentioned I love overstock.com? Because I really, really do!! Hahah and they aren’t paying me to say this but if they’d like to send some giftcards over that would be rad Oh and overstock was kind enough to give me a partial credit to my account when a Christmas gift for my in-laws wouldn’t make it here on Christmas Eve like it was suppose to. How super is that??

Help me!! Chocolate or Water Blue duvet?!?!

yes tired, tired, tired and can’t sleep because baby boy wants to do flips in my big ole belly to keep me awake. I think in maybe a hour or so I’ll be dead tired where I can finally wander into bed and just pass out. I didn’t get to take my nap because I was afraid to leave my cats alone, one of them was in a foul mood & I didn’t want him picking on the smaller one so I stayed awake and kept an eye out on them.

So I put up a new theme today, it’s soooo clean looking. I’m in total love with it. And the picture I added into the header just makes me very happy because that’s just goofy us…being goofy    Ohhh and I added a captcha to the site so now when you leave a comment you will need to fill that out, sorry I know it’s a pain in the butt but this morning after going through 80 or so spam comments something just had to be done. I am still screening comments but this will help I’m sure!! I’ve already noticed a difference, since I installed it not ONE spam comment. *dies from wonderfulness*  It’s soooo wonderful

One thing that also keeps me up is the lists in my head… of all the things I need to do. Adding things, changing things, oh man the lists in my head are just about to drive me insane. Lists, lists, lists, lists!!  :whine: Do the laundry, put away the dishes, buy bamboo blinds, do the baby laundry, pack hospital bag, get Repliva refilled, print out 8x10s for new frames, don’t forget biooil twice a day, did i take my pills?, refill ice trays, do extra work to be ahead, break down boxes from baby’s crib & bassinet, stop making lists. Okey randomness. I’ve already done everything major, my house is clean & I have hardly any work on my plate right now…. I think it’s time I try to go to bed… I really want to go to bed.  :uhm:

I forgot I wanted to post these!! But seriously I love these pictures, they are way too sweet for words

I had a doctor’s appointment at 9:45am this morning but I didn’t wake up until 9:20am! Whoops, actually I woke up around 8am but I stayed in bed playing with one of my cats and just ended up falling asleep. I luckily made it to my doctor’s appointment at around 9:50am but I just really hate being late even if they never call my name until 15 minutes after my appointment is set for (annoying!). Everything is looking good & the doctor estimated the baby to be around 7.5-8 lbs right now, let’s just hope he’s not dead on because I still have a month left!

Right now I’m putting together things so for 2009 I can grow photography into a full-time money maker for myself. I see this having a long to-do list, I also want to finally get another idea off the ground which JP is also apart of. Has anyone heard about working capital?

So I get up & finally get JP to stop looking at sports so I can check my email and work on a few things. As I go through my email, I see one from my grandma. This is all the email is:

I couldn’t help but laugh because it is the easiest “recipe” ever. I put recipe in quotations because it is that darn easy and tastes sooooooooo good!! I found the recipe on a message board I am apart of and after seeing sooo many raves about it I thought it would be nice to just make some for when I went to my grandmas house. And OH MY GOODNESS. I wish I would have bought enough for another batch for me! *puts that on grocery list* So here is the super simple but super delicious recipe. Oh and I used semi-sweet chocolate chips but you could use any kind to make all kinds of different fudges. Mmm the delicious possibilities ike mint chocolate chips, peanut butter chocolate chips orrr maybe even some white chocolate chips??? :q Onto the recipe, I hope you try this and enjoy it!! Maybe take some wherever you are going for New Year’s Eve?

Easy Fudge

one pan
wax paper
1/2 stick of butter
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
3 cups of chocolate chips
1/2 cup walnuts (optional)

Melt the butter, sweetened condensed milk & chocolate chips in the microwave for 90 seconds, stir, then microwave for another 60 seconds. Mix in the walnuts if you are going to be using them. Pour into a wax paper lined pan, have the wax paper WHEREVER the fudge will touch on the pan. USE the wax paper, if you don’t use the wax paper, you are really going to regret it. Refrigerate for a couple of hours and then cut!

Do you do any after Christmas deals?? I REALLY wish I could get out and about but with my iron levels being so low & CVS messing up my prescription so I can’t refill, that means I just don’t want to deal with getting light headed and such. But if I wasn’t all huge & getting dizzy often I would defiantly hit up Bath & Body works, Target & the much hated Wal-mart. Ohhh and Sephora is having some pretty decent deals!! Any make-up & body product crazed person might want to check it out because they have up to 75% off!! I am totally beat…think I’m gonna have some food & then go relax in bed So tell me all about your good after Christmas deals (pictures would be nice too ) since I probably won’t be doing too many myself

I am totally beyond tired, Christmas was great but very tiring. Being so close to the end of my pregnancy means I get totally wiped out in just about no time. Christmas Eve was spent at the in-laws where we ate, opened presents & watched movies until around 1am. When 1 am flew around we headed home and passed out in our nice comfy bed. Christmas morning we lingered in bed until around 10ish until we realized we wanted to go by JP’s mom’s house before we headed for lunch at my mom’s house. My mom cooked a yummy lunch & then we opened presents. My mom was so sweet and bought us a car seat for the baby along with a few adorable outfits! After my mom’s house we had to rush home to pick up the gifts & sweets that we were taking to my grandma’s house… yes another house on Christmas. As soon as we got to my grandma’s we started dinner then goofed around and opened presents. My baby nephew was being so awesome & adorable, JP put him in a giggle fit which was way too adorable for words… Okey I’m rambling, I’m just very, very tired & sore. Goodnight & I hope everyone had a blessed Christmas.

Oh and do you need a franchise opportunity?

It’s coming together!! I’m sooo geeked, I just couldn’t stand the bassinet & crib boxes just sitting in the room so I put them together today. JP rolled his eyes & huffed at me for doing this…but well that’s part of being an irrational pregnant lady. I just couldn’t help myself, they had to be put together. I tried so hard to fight my urges to assemble everything but it was worse then any food craving. I crave getting things done more then anything else. Like after this post I plan to go into the nursery and most likely cleaning that pesky corner with paint buckets in it… I just can’t help myself. It makes me feel so good to get these things done  :crazy: Oh and if you are in need of promotional pens check out that link, I’ll be forwarding it to my grandma because she loves promo stuff for her company  :hugs:

Our very first picture Christmas card… they aren’t the BEST ever but well they were slapped together last minute & I’m not the best when it comes to writing general greetings for a card. Oh and I am very disappointed in how dark they came out buuut whatever live & learn right? Oh and my scanner seemed to make JP look even darker… :rolleyes: Okey enough excuses and onto the card.. tada!
