24 weeks 1 day (AKA Viability)

I'm doing well: Looking forward to my appt on 7/8 and hoping that the Alien is still a girl, or that at the very least we get a strong confirmation of what they are. I actually have someone going along for the ride with me (2hrs one way): MY SISTER! Matt couldn't go because the store is opening and his mom is still out of town, so I just offhandedly asked my sister if she wanted to go and she said "sure".

This is a really big deal, because quite frankly my sister doesn't like babies, and isn't at all interested in my having a baby or being an aunt (she's 16, so I get it). My mom and I think she has more of a fear of babies than actually not liking them (she's the youngest and never really was around babies). I told her that she didn't have to go in for the actual appt, and that I would leave that up to her.

All in all I'm doing well, and probably doing more than I should (i.e. working on my feet for 9 hours, push mowing the lawn [it's flat], standing on the counter to clean the tops of the cabinets). I promise though that I'm always safe and don't push myself; I take lots of breaks and stop if I feel myself getting tired. There's just so much that needs to get done.

I'm hoping that we get home early enough on Wednesday that I can spackle and prime the closet in the nursery...we'll just have to see.

Now, for your viewing pleasure....see I do own other clothes ;-)
