It's only Sunday morning and I have partied more this weekend than I have in a long while. Friday night, hubby and I went out with my girlfriend. Then last night, hubby and I went over to the Westside for our Best Man's (aka Mr. Hinojosa's) 35th birthday party and stayed out til 2:30am. It was good to spend time with friends we haven't seen in a long while such as the 81st Street Boys (a special appearance from Montez via Portland,OR), the Montgomery's and Ms. Coto.
Life has been pretty busy. I never really did get a beak from the summer blockbusters at work. The movies and the work just kept coming. With the news that our London Office is closing came even more work. Guess what happened when an office of about 100 people find out they are being laid off? ....They stop working. Hence making getting information very hard. Anyhow, it is what it is at work. We still don't know much more information other than the London Office is closing on Dec 9th and I am leaving for maternity leave on Dec 8th. My poor boss said to me the other day, he was going to be all by himself. All I hope is that I make it to Dec 8th and have insurance when I give birth. But I guess whatever will happen will happen so I can't worry about the status of my job. That's the entertainment business anyway, they are always restructuring and laying people off then hiring a ton of people back. It's crazy but that is my world.
As for baby, we took a few weeks off from doing chores and now we are back on doing little things to get ready for baby girl. We have been the lucky recipients of some cool baby gifts. We received the two car seats we asked for so at least I can now go to the hospital with ease and be assured I can bring baby girl home in the hospital approved baby seat. Hubby has to figure out how they actually go in the car. Then I bought more things for the nursery and baby girl's closet. Hubby told me to stop buying clothes but I don't think he knows that babies go through a ton of clothing in a day. I don't think I a going too overboard. In fact, I am afraid I won't have enough!!
For her room, I bought a nice chenille bright pink rug. It's super soft to walk on it. Moses likes to use it as a loofah for his face aka he likes to rub his face on it all the time. I hope our girl likes dog hair! The theme of our room is little birds. So yesterday, while out shopping with my 20% friends and family Pottery Barn discount card I bought baby girl a purple pokadotted garbage bin with a little birdie on it that matches everything else. I also bought a cute little silver bank and some knobbiest for our curtain rods. I ordered a side table and also a bookcase. My mom used to read to me so I have this little reading area in the nursery that will be for me and baby girl. It's almost ready, I just need to order this cute little lamp that has birds on it from The Land of Nod. Suffice to say the nursery is coming into shape. I only need to order a daybed and then all the big pieces will be in place and then it is about decorating. I want to have the whole thing done by Thanksgiving.
The holidays should be pretty fun this year. I have some family and friends coming for Thanksgiving and then family for Christmas. Baby Girl just needs to pick a day for her arrival. I so can't wait to meet the little wiggle worm!!!! Everyone likes to tell hubby and I scary stories about a sleep deprived life and poop coming everywhere but you know I am looking forward to a new challenge in life and I have a feeling Baby Girl is just the person to give that to me!!
Anyhow, the chores continue today as we must go get some more groceries. I sure run out of food fast when I have a coordinated diet in place!
