Girls Just Want To Have Fun!

It has been a nice weekend. Relaxing. Yet I am still tired. Someday I will quit complaining, or at least complain about something else. I went shopping with best bud yesterday and we swam with the girls. Trying to teach them that they can float on noodles. So cute!! Want to know what is not cute? When someone poops in a swim diaper. This is our 3rd summer of swimming and the 1st poop. Yuck! That is when it is nice to hand them over to mom.

Today hubby and I went to the store I hate most - Babies R Us (I tend to be there when lots of unhappy, screaming children are present). We are in the process of working on baby girl's room so we went to buy 1 piece of the bedroom set to see what color of paint to go with. I am still undecided. We bought the window valance and hung it. It has been SO WEIRD all day passing that room and seeing that in there. That is actually going to be a little person's room. My little person. I am still amazed. I am not a super girly person so here is what we are going with.

We both like it. It has awesome textures for the baby touch. Man she is moving around so much right now. It is like she knows I am typing about her. This is way easier to pick than a name. Man, I want to make a huge list to consider but I am at 3 names. Lots of names just turn me off. Maybe I have too many years of teaching already. Some names, you never want to hear again.
Got to workout, swim, read and nap today. But I have also seen quite a few episodes of Man vs. Food on the Travel network. If you want to feel like you have an uber healthy diet (even if somethings are questionable) just watch what this dude has been eating. I do love this show! What a great weekend! Hope you are enjoying yours.

love the new layout!
and am, as always, so excited for you.
I became completely overwhelmed at the name-notion and was totally thankful when my husband said: I ADORE THE NAME YADA YADA YADA. I LOVE IT.

I thought great :) lets use that one.

So funny. I work in the schools and many names were just "out" as we named all 3 of my kids....I hear some names and picture students I've worked with.

CJ said...

So exciting! Will you share the names with us?!

Apex Zombie said...

I totally hear you on the names thing. I'm not a teacher yet but from my time spent in my mum's classroom there are some names I'd rather not hear everyday :D

And that room looks so freaking cool!

What a cute bedding set! My first girl had a jungle animal theme as well (since we didn't know if she was a boy or girl, we went with a green/yellow color scheme).

Aaaaaw, that's cute! Especially love the wood.
I also totally sympathize on the name thing. I'm not pregnant (yet) but my fiancee and I talk about kid's names sometimes. With him having been a teacher and me being one there's little choice! LOL
Try going on the net and looking for exotic but still not too weird names. Maybe a rather old fashioned one. They can be cute.

names are tough, it takes time and then with people you or your hubby may have known with the name it makes it harder! Good luck!

It's fun watching you and daughter progress at about the same. Love the bedding. My kid is got a surfer theme going on for her baby boy.

I was tired the entire 9 months. Get all the sleep you need. After the baby is born you'll be glad you did.
