Why the actual Baby is better than the pregnancy.

There is something about being human that makes people slightly obnoxious at times. When a person is expecting a child, people often feel they have the right, or perhaps even the obligation, to let people know that the hard times are yet to come. That you will not get any sleep. That your life will no longer be your own. That it just gets harder and harder. Well, maybe I am just insane, or maybe my pregnancies were harder than most, or maybe my girls are so cute that I forget that it is supposed to be all that hard, so I am here to write a list of why the actual baby is better than the hell that is the pregnancy before hand.
1. Even if you only get two hours of sleep with the baby, at least you can roll over with out pain.
2. When not pregnant, you can go longer than two hours without peeing.
3. Your fat pregnant belly does not smile at you.
4. When the baby feels heavy or your arms get tired you can hand the baby to someone else, or set the baby down. Not so possible with pregnant belly.
5. People may try and touch your baby, but at least they have stopped touching your stomach.
6. Fat rolls on babies are cute. Fat rolls on adults not so much.
7. During the last months of pregnancy people love to tell you how miserable you look. After the baby is born, people stop looking at you and only notice the baby.
8. Baby spit up/diapers are way better than self-vomit.
9. Babies are sweet and snuggly and like to hold your finger. Fetus's like to jump on your bladder and kick your rib cage.
10. "Oh no the baby is crying" is a great excuse to give telemarketers.
11. As much as I hated being pregnant, I actually wanted the child.

I really could go on. Point being it does not always get harder.

Wow. We are amazingly good at updating our blog. HA!

So, it would appear to be my blogging turn. Interesting weekend.

First, we discovered the BEST hot chocolate on the planet (Hatch Family Chocolates)! The same store also makes killer chocolates as the name would suggest. Our filipinos LOVED the chocolate covered ginger pieces made there.

Then, the real excitement began when we learned that an all out war had to be waged against the vermin that have come to call our house home. It was either the mice or the people & the people MUST win! Ejay & Arwin have been doing a great job of playing human mouse trap & we evicted a relatively large number of pests from the house yesterday. I'm a little worried to go home from work today as I'm not entirely sure what I will find. I'm hoping we're getting to the end of the mouse supply. When we've been advised to have a year supply of everything, I'm pretty sure mice weren't included.

Is my life really this boring?

So, a lot of people I know update their blogs everyday. At first I began to think "Wow, they have so much to say! My life must really be boring". Now I do not know if it is just that I am much more boring than my fellow bloggers, or if I do not have nearly as much to say, or if it is that more is not necessarily better.
All I know is that the wedding is over! I am glad they are happily married, and I am glad we do not have to plan anymore. Boring is good.

Things I do not like

I try hard to not go on feminist rampages, because people get easily offended, some people feel feminism equals satan, etc etc, but every once and awhile I stumble across something that I just can't wrap my head around such as:
http://www.uddercovers.com/
This is not a post about nursing in public or anything like that. Its the name. Udder covers? Really? I know someone thought they were cute and clever.
I am not a cow. Breast feeding my child does not equate me to a farm animal.
That's all.
