Size does matter...

I had quite the interesting weekend!

Friday night the hubs came home and we just hung out and spent time together.(I think, I can't remember). Saturday was our fun filled day of childbirth class. *insert sarcasm*

We chose to do the one day course at the hospital I'm delivering at due to D's schedule and from what I understood, they were covering every base from birth to breastfeeding to newborn care. EHH-wrong!

It was in a classroom w/chairs, about 10 other couples & w/the lights out so we could watch 1980's projector videos. Now, I have no doubt that it was a very informative class, to the other couples, but not us. I've been so on top of reading and learning about childbirth & pregnancy from my "What to Expect When You're Expecting" book, that other than the tour of the hospital, I didn't learn anything. I was really bummed out. We didn't do floor exercises or anything & we didn't learn a thing about newborn care. I blame myself, b/c obviously I signed us up for the wrong class. We sat there for 8 hours!!!

Oh, what I did learn is that I'm going to have a big baby. We all introduced ourselves & said due dates & such. I was one of the later ones yet also had the bigger belly of everyone due even before me! There may have been one girl bigger than me but I think she's due like-now!

I had to laugh at how much bigger I was b/c I was also the shortest, most petite yet my hubby was the biggest in the room. We're an oddly sized couple. It's ok, I guess I'm having a big baba! With D's big head! LOL. I was thinking I was too big at first, but my vertically challenged mom put it into perspective for me. Size does matter :) Height & weight that is ;)

Yesterday was the big day we were going to paint the nursery. Now I'll try to make this story short but it's confusing. Derek works out of town & left his truck at the job site 4 hrs away w/an employee of ours. He got a call Sunday right before our friends Cody & Kelli came over to help paint, that his work truck was found stuck in a ditch on the side of the road. There was also a tractor that looked wrecked & a bunch of job supplies scattered on the road. Can I just say I've never seen Derek this mad in my life?The employee got drunk, drove D's truck. Got it stuck, Got the tractor to get it out(twice) & wrecked the tractor. Yikes right? My husband doesn't get mad but you do NOT want to mess w/him if he does. He's big ;)

SOO.....he was so upset b/c he wanted to paint the nursery & watch the super bowl and he really felt like he was letting us down, but he had to leave to go take care of it all-4 hours away. I'm so thankful we have friends like we do b/c Cody & Kelli stayed anyways and painted it for us :) Awesome, right?(Love you guys) Derek has some touching up to do since I can't get on a ladder but it's done for the most part! It's YELLOW too! I'm really hoping the color tones down once we get everything in there.

I managed to watch most of the superbowl but D missed it. By the time everything was said and done, he got home at 2:30 this morning, only to turn around and head to work in Oklahoma. Sounds like he got my bad luck huh?
