This is our yesterday, a day late.
So Saturday morning, December the 23rd, rested and oh so happy to be on semi-vacation. We roll up the blinds and find.............. drum roll please.... A toilet sitting in our backyard.
hmmmm. Some folks bought the house next door, and are going to demolish it ( all the big ass houses are replacing the cute little bungalows) So buddy next door thinks that because and Oh so small part of the fence blew in during the crazy wind storm and then snow storm, that he can walk into our yard, our property and deposit all his shit from inside the house he is demolishing. I can so see problems in our midst. Oh yes so Jer goes over to talk with him and he tells Jer about some city Easment that our two homes are on ( and duh the normal thing would be that yes there may be an easment there, but dude there is a fence there. And the fence has been there for YEARS, so my guess would be that it kind marks a property line, we get half the easment and you get half the easment. Anyways my dad went over to talk to the guy, and everything is all sorted up but he did admit he WAS going to dump his shiznet into our yard. OUR YARD? There is a FENCE people... duh.
Oh yes and they begin construction on the house March 1st... 1 day before our new baby is due.
Boy oh boy are we going to have fun.

MMMMMM goodness
What a fabulous friday. Can I tell you how much I loved today. Yes I know the tone in this post is much more happy than the last. Because people I spent today well part of it working but the other part of it doing a little last minute shopping in my favorite part of Vancouver, Main Street between 20th and 27th. That area of town just makes me feel so alive. The vibe the energy the zoom zoom I just love it. Mabye it was that it's the holiday season and everyone's just so hip hop happy and all talky talky and friendly or mabye it was the delicious egg nog latte with a shot of caramel from the Saltspring Island Coffee Co. ( some of THE most delicious coffee in North America, I would say the world but nobody's been able to outdo Italy or Austria yet ( the 2 places jer and i have had THE most bestest smoothest love inducing cup of java ever) Okay but back to Main street, we have both always talked about loving that area of town and that if we ever get kicked out of our place on Pigott ( don't worry visitation rights to their first grandchild will so quickly be revoked) we would move to Main. How funkdillyicious it would be. But for now I look forward to taking the babbit to daddy's work and then hitting my most favorite vintage shops, and antique shops and specialty shops and showing my funked out kid what a fabulous and diverse city we call home. You know there really is no place like home for the holidays!

What you need to know:
About 2 percent of pregnant women have too much amniotic fluid (polyhydramnios). This condition is diagnosed with ultrasound Most cases are mild and are a result of a gradual buildup of fluid during the second half of pregnancy. About half the time, polyhydraminos goes away by itself. Some cases, however, begin as early as 16 weeks of pregnancy and often result in a very early delivery.
The most common cause of polyhydraminos is a birth defect of the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract or bladder and kidneys Polyhydraminos may increase the risk of pregnancy complications including preterm rupture of the membranes, preterm birth, umbilical cord accidents, placental abruption, poor growth of the baby and stillbirth. Women with polyhydraminos are more likely to have a cesarean delivery and to have severe bleeding after delivery.
Okay this would be me freaking....
who the hell invented google.... sometimes too much information is BAD!

My little water babbit
So, today I went for my pre-natal appointment, dreading the thought that I would recieve my results back from my gestational diabetes screen and that they would be that I would have gestational diabetes and I would have to stop eating all the sweeties and chocolates and cookies and yum yum christmas treats 7 DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS - Ack me.
So do you want the good news first... okay the good news- I can eat all the sweeties and bon bons i want over the holidays because I do NOT have gestational diabetes! Whew!
Bad news - I have a way below normal count of hemoglobin ( red blood cell's and development) The baby is sucking them up like sweeties, so i have to start taking these powerful iron supplements that make your poop hard like rocks and very few and far between, This my friends is harsh, i am little miss regularity when it comes to poops and this may prove to be quite difficult. But on the other hand i get to eat more red meat! YUMMY BEEEF. But wait there is more scary news. My little baby, is believed to be floating in more than normal amounts of amniotic fluid, the dillyo is that the baby is basically peeing so much and creating so much amniotic water - my uterus is going to get streched out trying to empty and dilute it, and I will have a bit of a time getting back on my feet after the big labour day. Also because of this fear of too much water, there is an even bigger fear that the baby will float up high and the umbilical cord will wrap around it's cute little neck and strangle it while in the process of coming to greet its' most terrified and screaming in pain mamma. So *bright side* we get to get more pictures of the baby, bad side I might need a cessarean. Poop - Poop Poopy, ya so I don't really know what else to say except I'm a little freaked out, and my baby better not get hurt, yes the protective mamma bear is coming out......

Annual Office Parteh...
The Holiday's have officially begun, This was our 2nd holiday pary of the season! MMMM great food, free drinks ( real hit with the prego's) and NO PRESSIES... yup they didn't give out any gifties this year, poop. Oh well, I felt sexy hot for the first time in a while, hmmm mabye because I was wearing make up and jewlery and hairspray.... gotta use those guys more often, anyways It's late, we just finished our last prenatal class, and it's kinda sad, I looked so forward to our Thursday nights, as much as I know my F.W.K's (friends without Kids) will still love me, I know it will be hard to relate after the peach pops, and getting together with a group who know how your feeling and want to talk "Baby" all day and don't get sick of it was refreshing. Hopefully we'll keep in touch, I think my bananna chocolate chip muffins might of scored me at least two new peeps!
