I'll be having a baby tonight. What will you be doing?
Kristen is calling tomorrow "big sister day" because she FINALLY gets to be a big sister. This poor kid has been waiting forever to be a real big sister. I only hope she knows what she is wishing for.
Yesterday, my friend brought over her 3 week old son and took a nap at my house. Once my friend got settled, Kristen said "Let's go take care of the baby." I had to explain that he is sleeping. No, we can't wake him up to hold him. No, he doesn't want to play with the pink baby doll. Sure, you can check on him again. Yes, he's STILL sleeping.
Poor kid.

weighing in on britney
how could i possibly have a blog without giving my opinion about britney spears' performance the other night on the VMA's? first i have to mention that i am a huge britney fan and have been since "baby one more time". i think the girl is amazing even still with all of these flubs in her career. i very rarely allow people to commit acts and get away with passing the blame onto others. however, in her case, i really feel like britney is getting shafted because of her fame. not one of us can imagine what it is like to NEVER be alone and always have people hounding you, trying to touch you, get a piece of you, make money off you, blah blah. i could go on all day. yes, she gets paid royally and that's lovely. but i bet you she would pay alot of money to just get some peace.
her performance the other night...she looked great physically but i have never once seen her nervous and i have seen alot of her interviews and performances. she looked absolutely like a deer in the headlights and i sincerely thought she would walk off the stage at some points. i felt really bad for her. her song was good though :)
i'll take my "normal" life over hers anyday.

a few things...
i got an email from my friend this morning that made me laugh. i won't embarrass claire by mentioning her name. it said:
"First rule of blogging - be sure to update for those of us who have no life outside of reading about other people's lives! I know you have NOTHING else going on, so come on!!! Love,Your loyal audience :-)"
funny. but i have actually been thinking of a few things to write. first of all, what is on my mind most is my appointment with my OB this morning. at my 36 week appointment, i asked her how big she thought the baby is. people keep asking and i keep forgetting to get that information. she tells me 7 pounds. i said NOW? yes. that is just her estimate. i said, isn't it true that the baby puts on a pound a week. yes. i have 4 weeks left. yes. at this point, you can visualize my look of complete shock and picking my mouth up off the floor. so i then reminded her that i had a 9lb. 9oz. baby last time and i DO NOT want to go through that again much less anything worse. she even looked concerned at this point. maybe she thought that i would pass out. she said that at my appointment next week, i should ask the doctor (she is the nurse) about all this and have her estimate the size and ask to be induced. she said there is a chance that she would induce me at 38 weeks. i will walk into that office next week hoping and praying that is what she says. unfortunately, i probably won't stop thinking about it until then. i can be so neurotic.
