There is definitely some more work to be done...but it looks good! While Danny was painting I tried to be productive, so I put the stroller together. So far so good! It hasn't been kid tested yet, but I think it will hold up! We also have the carseat, and I read up on how to use that. Geeze, I am uncertain as to how some people have kids and keep them alive and safe...some of this stuff seems awfully complicated to me, and registering...don't even get me started, I must have looked like a bumbling idiot walking around Babys R Us by myself. There is just too much stuff that they try to sell you and too many options of each thing. I just get this fear that if I don't buy the right thing I am somehow going to damage my child for the rest of her life! I know this is far from the truth, but wow....thankfully my Sister In Law helped me with the registry and it is all done, I can stop stressing about that now and move on to the next thing, like buying furniture.
I found the perfect nursery furniture at JC Penney. It has to be ordered on line and it does not apparently qualify for any of their shipping discounts, so I tried to "checkout" to get a total to what it was going to be.....shipping was $350!!!! Are you kidding me?? That is almost half of the price of the whole set of furniture!!!! That is totally not going to fly, so I am off to find another "perfect" set. Sheesh, nothing can be simple can it?
Little McConaha has definitely started kicking, I can feel her really well, although she still is being shy to the outside world, so Daddy hasn't gotten to feel her yet. She isn't shy on the inside though, she also knows exactly where my bladder is and isn't afraid to kick it repeatedly. Right now she is breech, so she is feet down, hopefully she will be turning around soon. My worst fear is that I will have to have a C-Section, I know that I will do what I have to, but yikes that scares the bajesus out of me, coming from a girl that can't get blood taken.
Finally here I am at 23 weeks....blah...
