A good friend can tell you what is the matter with you in a minute. He may not seem such a good friend after telling.

Happy Friday the 13th everyone! I know it’s supposed to be this big spooky day, but so far, for me, the day is going a-okay. And I even got a shot! So you know I’m doing good.

H1N1 Vaccinated!
The ladies at the clinic were super super nice. They even gave Seth a shot. He was considered high risk too because he almost died of the flu four years ago, has asthma, and is living with a pregnant lady. We were talking to the nurses and we learned about a free program that our county does that has a registered nurse and breastfeeding specialist come into your home before and after the baby is born to help you out and make sure everything is going okay. I met the nurse who would come and she is really great and I kind of love her. I was pretty excited about it because I have like 6000 questions about breastfeeding and pumping. Pays to check out the free county services in your area!

This weekend
We really don’t have much on tap this weekend. Kathy is going to swing by to drop off some scarves she got me and see Evelynn’s room. My parents might be coming over Sunday for lunch. Mostly Seth is going to be working hard on his project and I’m going to be working hard on relaxing. Just the way it should be!

Last night

I was a good wife last night and stopped on my way home at Target to get our prescriptions filled. I also got a vat of coco butter lotion, the new Disney movie UP (with my 20 dollar gift card from Target for opening a registry, technically the movie is for Evie, so I used it for her), a container for my food at work to keep the mice from getting at it, and a new collar for Willow since she lost hers. When I came back to pick up the prescriptions, there was a huge mess. Seth was out of refills for his ProAir (his inhaler) and he’s been having trouble with the increased allergens in the air so he was pretty much out. They couldn’t read my doctor’s handwriting on my Zoloft so they gave me five pills to tied me over until they could contact my doctor. They could fill the heartburn medication with no problem, and the gel was over the counter so they just gave me my prescription back. I have to go back today to get Seth’s inhaler and the Zoloft. Nuts to that.
Then I had to stop at the post office and get stamps. Our local post office is majorly creepy so stopping there sucked. I was just waiting for someone to walk in with a gun. The line was super long and I was hoping they just had one of those credit card machines to get the book of stamps, but of course they didn’t so I had to wait in line. I got home and Seth went running and I started French Fries. Then I went downstairs to wait for them to cook and to watch the rest of Law and Order:SVU. Seth came back and I was just drained. He brought me dinner downstairs and that was super sweet. Then we watched Top Chef while waiting to get ahead in Grey’s.
Grey’s was SUPER GOOD I thought. I thought the revelation about the Chief was shocking and perfect for the storyline. I love when you find out that for many episodes now, the writers have been setting you up and will explain the weirdness that has been happening and causing you to question a character.
I hate that they are messing with Owen and Christina. Lame.
The Alex and Izzie stuff was good, but I’m totally on Alex’s side.
And as always, I love Bailey.
Oh and I love Kim Raver too, I’ve loved her since Third Watch. I’m glad to have her on here, I hope she stays a while.
And on the way home from work, I thought, wouldn’t it be great it Jon Bon Jovi was some kind of guest star? I’m going to officially request it on Shonda Rhimes twitter.

Evelynn’s blog
Evelynn is jumping and jiving today! She’s been active since about 7. (I got to sleep in this morning-YIPEE!!) It’s so nice to have her moving around in there. I have a lot of questions about who she is going to be, but my biggest question, one I think about DAILY is what color are her eyes and hair going to be? It’s like I can look at her sonogram picture all day, but what would really make her a person for me, is knowing that. I hope she has blue eyes and strawberry blond hair. There is a chance for that since my mom has blue eyes and Seth has blue eyes and I think his mom has blue eyes. Red hair also runs on both sides of our family. But seriously, it something that I like can’t stop thinking about and want to know so bad!
Other than that, she is 23 weeks tomorrow and growing like a weed! Kathy ordered the invites for the Jill/Jack shower she is throwing for Seth and I and I’m so excited to see them! They kind of inspired the theme we went with in Evelynn’s room.
I hung up the sonogram pictures of Evelynn (not the lady bits ones) in my cube at work and whenever she kicks I look at them and smile. I’m starting to dig this Mommy thing, it’s becoming less and less daunting every day.

Nap…uh I mean Work time!
Alright friends! I hope you have a fantastic weekend. If I can think of anything exciting to take pictures of, I will post them for you this weekend. But other wise I will see you all Monday-fingers crossed this flu shot doesn’t put me on my back all weekend like the last one did!!

Love (days that just feel good),
Carrie
