Random Thoughts of a Pregnant Chick

She needs a dress like this for Kyle & Amy's wedding...but I need to find one on sale

• I told Nick I felt like I was a dragon...Why, because my whole chest & throat is on fire
• Do people know if they don't have a cute baby? I feel like they don't.....
• Who bought the 4-5 items on my registry that I never got...they are good gifts too - we need them!
• Nick, Alyssa & I all randomly hang out in Lyla's room
• I accidentally ordered $61 in leg warmers last night....I had a coupon code & didn't enter it properly & my card got overcharged...but the site credited me today, so all is good in the world
• everything hurts
• I am forgetting everything
• Pregnancy can be lonely at times
• Shaving is hard, painting my toenails is even harder - I need a pedicure, who is in?
• And I am very emotional lately...more than my usual over-the-top emotional self
• Lyla sleeps all day & moves the most after 7pm - let's hope this changes
• When will my face get fat or nose get fat?
• Why do I want to buy her everything?
• I think all Lyla's 4d pics look different, I don't have the slightest clue what she will look like
• I can't wait to kiss and hold my baby girl....
