Baby shopping :)...now 23wks!

Yesterday we had a busy day! First we made pigs in a blanket....yum! Derek decided to go to the pool with me and swim laps while i did my water aerobics which was so relaxing! Afterwards we went and picked up the baby bedding, which is so cute I just love it! Then we went to Babies r us and bought some essentials like the changing pad, crib mattress, baby bathtub, bumbo, hangers, and some cleaning stuff. I had coupons and gift cards for everything from the showers which was VERY nice:) We were in and out pretty fast, i think it surprised Derek a little. Then we went to Whole Foods, which is where i spent half my paycheck!!! I just love all the natural, bright foods....we also ate a light lunch there. Later on that evening after getting home, organizing putting things away we went back out to Target to get some odds and ends. I find myself (everytime we go out) buying a little something for Dreycin each time. Yesterday it was bordeaux's butt cream, and some organic cloth diapers and earth's best lavendar wash and lotion. I figure if i buy it all slowly it wont add up as much in the end, right? We got home and watched Confessions of a Shopaholic, which I loved, dont know about my husband though! Today i have been again cleaning and organizing, making space for Dreycin! I was about 8wks when we moved into our patio home so i think i just stuck things anywhere without thinking about SPACE for a baby! Its only a 2bdrm 2bath so its going to be tight but the last thing i want to do is move again, unless its closer to Ft Knox where we would be able to afford something bigger for cheaper? anyways, didnt sleep well at all last night my hips have been killing me? I cant believe its already Monday tomorrow, i mean where did the weekend go? im telling you part time is looking better and better every week. I have a interview tomorrow for a parttime position with a psychiatric hospital, doing part time assessments at Jewish hospitals here in Louisville. It would be like 20hrs a week, and PRN hours if I wanted to work more, plus WAY better pay since I just got my license! i hope i get it, but first i have to find something to wear that doesnt make me look too pregnant!! All in all im just not happy where i work right now, its like social workers are not viewed professionally, and im not kidding you when I say there is only 7of us in the department and we have more education than our whole department which is about 30. our pay sucks (i would be making alot more in dallas), and we are titled as discharge planners. I love working in mother/baby, but hate the days when im floated to regular hospital which is med/surg, tcu, ccu, icu, its just not what i want to be doing, setting up home health, hospice, nursing home placements....ugh! And lately that seems to be happening alot more, because like 3social workers will call in on one day? but thats a whole another story....that i will have to include in the book i write one day. Speaking of book, this week had many past memories behind it and I just want to tell my best friend Jessica that we are stronger individuals today than we have ever been because of what we have been through, sad that we lost them the way we did.
