10 Weeks Left!


Well Let the count down begin. I have so many different crazy emotions going on now. I am for no good reason paranoid of an early delivery. I am realizing this is real and we will have a little baby by easter! I hope he is healthy and that I don't need a c-section. My dr told me there is no need for another ultrasound because everything was fine when we found out it was a boy at 18 weeks. I have been crazy hungry! Jamie is grossed out by the amount of food that I consume. I am addicted to applesauce with cinnamon and pears.

Lazy Days

Ok so as I mentioned we went to the casino. I called it by the wrong name it is Foxwoods. It is only 40 mins away and is huge! I had a pedicure and it was expensive but amazing. I was so tired after I went and napped in the car while Jamie kept gambling. I felt pretty crappy today so we did nothing. The DR suggested I start taking iron pills so I am hoping that does the trick and gets me some energy back. I think this extra weight is really taking its toll on me. walking the dogs feels like running a marathon. Even vacuuming is tiring. Jamie said he would help but he is the worst cleaner on earth and I know I would just redo what he did. Its the thought that counts right.

All star break

Well all star break has started and we have no real plans. We are going to take the 45 min drive to the huge Foxboro Casino. It is huge. Jamie can gamble and I may get a pedicure. I had my check up and all is well. The poor DR was crazy busy and had to deliver a baby. I will be 30 weeks on Monday! So far my total weight gain is 20 lbs. I shouldnt gain more than 30 all round so thats good news also.

Jamie just went out to pick up a 19 inch tv that he won. It is weird because he was just talking about how we needed a tv for the nursery, so it was a nice surprise.

After break jamie is headed to St.Johns nfld. The same day he comes home mom and dad also fly in!!

Back ache, front ache, acne ahhhhhh!!!


So I thought I was in the clear I had made it this far but then it hit me back pain. Jamie booked me a massage on the 23rd so it better help. I also thought I was over this acne thing but no, it all came back, I got some on my belly now also blah! I keep getting icky feelings in my front now also this I believe is due to my stupid belly button making its transition to an outie! On the bright side I have no swollen body parts and no stretch marks! Fingers crossed I stay this way, well I am not opposed to my lips swelling.
Baby Tardif is growing!

28 Weeks


So I am officially entering the 3rd trimester! 12 more weeks to go. ( I am hoping only 10 left) I have an appointment on the 24th ( the day after Jamie's b-day) I believe it is just a regular check up nothing special.

The great debate we are having now is what monitor to get. There are so many out there to choose from. Jamie has his heart set on a video one so when he is at the fire pit at the cottage he can see Jax. Seriously thats the only reason Jamie wants a monitor. I cant believe how expensive they are.

I did go on the manhunt for a product here only to find out they dont have it in the US. So my mom is brining me a big canister of Penaten. (for those that dont know its bum cream). Also on a side note it is really helpful for taking the red out of zits.

For all moms out there with babies this is the best product ever. It took me awhile to find them in an array of colors but I did. The zutano bootie is amazing. It has a baby button so they never fall off! When I baby say the little girl had these and you never had to worry about cold feet!

Cribs and bedding, Check!


I spoke with my mom today and she went out an bought a crib and dresser for us for when we get back to Canada. The cribs are made in Canada and have non toxic paint. She also told me that my cousin Kris and his wife Jo are giving us their girls old crib for the cottage! I am so excited! It will be nice to get home and not have to worry about getting that stuff ready. I did find a crib set that is beautiful that is priced very well.

Heat Wave

Beautiful view from our neighborhood while walking the dogs

Yesterday it was 60 degrees!! Thats right people 60!! It is supposed to be nice all week! I love this weather. I had an emotional moment yesterday. I was in my car and just as I was pulling in the driveway a some came on that reminded me of GR. I have developed a love hate relationship with this song and I know that anyone who has been to any michigan sporting event knows exactly what song I am talking about. "DONT STOP BELIEVING" It brought back some great memories!

27 Weeks on Monday! Time is flying! All star break is coming at the end of the month there is talk of us doing something but to tell you the truth I am very content staying in Providence cooking yummy food and getting couples massages and pedicures. We will how that flies with Jamie.



27 Weeks tomorrow!
