Starved Fish

I had several things on my To Do list for yesterday.  I needed to pay bills and get them in the mail, wash the diapers, fold the ever growing pile of clean clothes (I manage to do the laundry with one hand, but folding is annother story), buy groceries, return some things to Target, Feed Trevor's Fish, Write Thank You Notes, Figure out health insurance for Kamrynn, and get gas for Daddy.  I had no help in any of this as daddy was at work.

Here is what happend instead:  I ate a sandwich while Kamrynn screamed in her swing.  Fed Kamrynn, then changed her, then changed her a second time because she wasn't finished when I changed her the first time, put her in her carseat, went to the bathroom while she screamed some more in her carseat, lugged the carseat around the house to keep her quiet while I hunted down my grocery list...found the grocery list in my coat pocket!  Installed the carseat in the 4-runner without the base while Kamrynn screamed at the top of her lungs...I was just about to take her out when she finally calmed down (I was beginning to think she was being pinched or something).  Finally we were off.  We arrive at Target, and rather than dealing with installing the carseat after we were finished, I just took Kamrynn out.  That's when I discovered she had been crying because she had a poopy diaper.  We changed the diaper in the back of the 4-runner... slanted leather seats are not conducive to diaper changes!  We exchanged our items for a baby carier, and off to get the Car from Trevor's work to go put gas in it.  Paid $3.15 for gas, and Kamrynn cried every time the car stopped moving.  Took the car back to Trevor and Kamrynn decided she was hungry.  She took her sweet time eating (falling asleep almost instantly)and even longer burping (we got one small burp out of her).  I changed annother dirty diaper, but got smart this time and opened the very back of the 4-runner where it is flat. While putting her in her seat, she spit up, and I took her out and wipped her off... I just had a spare onsie and didn't want her legs to get cold getting groceries in the carrier so I left her in a stinky outfit.  Finally we were off to get groceries!

Getting groceries was the easiest part of the entire trip!  Kamrynn LOVES the carrier and fell asleep almost as soon as I put her in it.  She cooed a couple times, but other than that I did not hear a peep out of her!  I did find it too difficult to carry the groceries inside with her and she screamed in her swing every time I went outside to get annother bag.  Thankfully daddy came home and helped with the last one! 

Kamrynn ate dinner while we ate a pizza, and actually went to bed at a decent time last night.  The fish starved.  The rest of my list has been added to today's To Do list, and now Kamrynn is hungry.  Bye for now!

Anniversary Celebration:  We celebrated our anniversary yesterday.  I cant believe it has been a year already!  We spent the majority of our honeymoon in Cannon Beach.  We stayed at this little Inn for several days and fell IN LOVE with the town.  I would love to have a home there, right on the beach so I could look out and see the ocean every day, as well as catch the probably not so occasional storm!  Back to the anniversary:  Trevor had to work on our actual anniversary, so we had decided to celebrate Tuesday instead (Trevor's 1st of three days off).  Unfortunately, the forecast was for rain.  As was Wednesdays.  But NOT Thursday!  So off we went to Cannon Beach... we did get rained on on the way over, but not too much.  The beach was cloudy and warm.  We walked all the way down to the most photographed rock (in probably all of the world!), on the beach, then back through town after we enjoyed a nice lunch/dinner at Doogers (we had eaten here while on our honeymoon - they even seated us in the same seat!).  Trevor had the Admirals Platter - a sort of seafood sampler, and I had the Alfredo Linguine with Shrimp.  Really Yummy! 

Sweet Dreams, Little One:  During one of the downpours we experienced on Tuesday, Trevor decided it was time to put the bassinet together.  Please excuse the mess in the background... as you can see I still have unpacking to do!

  Here is the finished product in it's new home.  Still waiting for the changing pad to arrive, which will go on top of the dresser.

The Bump:   38 Weeks - Come out soon please!

Update

Lets see....

N. Umpqua Fishing Trip
We went fishing up the North Umpqua.  Trevor had never been fly fishing and got a bite on his very first cast.  The second cast he caught this fish:

And a few casts later he caught this fish:

He fished the remainder of the day, at three different spots along the river but didn't catch anything else.

Job Hunt

Trevor got the job with Metro West Ambulance in Hillsboro.  He has decided he is not going to work both jobs, so I have been packing our house.  We plan to put everything in storage except the essentials, and find something cheap to rent in Hillsboro or Beaverton until we can find something more permanant.  Right now, there is only one house on the Good Neighbor Next Door Program list and it would take Trevor over 40 minutes to get to work....  So, we wait.  So far, Trevor really likes the job, and LOVES getting EMERGENCY calls!  He will continue his current job through the end of the month, then is on the schedule for August with Metro West.

Baby

The baby has been moving around a lot.  Not many kicks but TONS of stretching and buldging.  Her heart beat was 140bpm (138bpm last month), and she is still measuring about two weeks ahead.  Her fingernails have reached the end of her fingers now, and it's possible for her to scratch herself... poor thing!  We have one more week until she is developed enough that we will try to save her if she is born early, but she really, really, needs to wait annother month and a half to have no problems.  She is about 17" long and weighs about 3.5lbs.

Here are some bump pictures:

30 Weeks

And I finally figured out how to set the self timmer on my camera, so these should be much clearer from now on!

31 Weeks

Here is the Belly Map from today:

And here is the interpretation of it:

If the interpretation is correct, she is Left Occiput Posterior.  She has flipped, but is not in the best position for birth.  There some exercises I will do to help her face backwards closer to birth.
