Week 26: Happy Birthday to Me!!!!

My birthday was this past week! It was wonderful and lots of fun. I got to eat key lime pie, and go visit the Newport Aquarium, and spend time with my husband. It was excellent.

 these pictures are from the shark ray bay, which was one of the best parts. this is a shark ray! (not an actual shark)
that is a shark

Also this week, my baby has started hiccuping? Which is normal, and actually a-okay, but the first time I realized she was hiccuping was when I was lying in bed trying to fall asleep. With a baby hiccuping inside me, I wasn't doing a very good job of succeeding at falling asleep. (Of course, Isaiah would mention that even without the hiccuping, I don't do a very good job at falling asleep with a baby inside me.)

Also, I'm very round now????? Look at me!


I can't even see my whole belly button anymore without bending precariously over. Also, my mommy made me that dress, and it's beautiful and comfy and you should all applaud her magnificent sewing skills, because she sewed a dress that fit me while I was on a separate continent and not constantly available to be measured and try it on. 

That's pretty much it for this week! Next week I take my glucose tolerance test (to see if I have gestational diabetes) (I probably don't) and I will probably hate every second of it!

Week 24: Nesting Mother Awaits the Return of Bucky Barnes

Image
So, this past week has mostly been pretty chill. Nothing major happened (at least not that I can currently recall) and baby girl has been continuing to do just fine - the normal circumstances of kicking/punching/parkouring inside of me are continuing. You can actually, if you're lucky and paying attention, see the movement when she gets me particularly well. As is common in the second trimester, nesting has started, spurred on by the generous donations of several friends. Mostly it just involves me wiping furniture clean and making pretty little piles of clothes and other baby things until Isaiah and I get rid of/move all of the other stuff that we'd put in the baby's room. But, as slow as progress goes, it is going, and there's no rush for the baby to get here. look, it's me and baby standing next to a crib! We've been very blessed to have generous friends and family who are willing to help us prepare for our baby's arrival. It's given us a l...

THE GRAND UNVEILING

I would like to take this time to welcome you all to my new blog: Properly Pop Punk: My Pop Punk Life. I uh... really don't have much else to put here. Be on the lookout for my first actual post, which should be coming as soon as I have a free evening! Be safe. Don't get eaten by bears. That's not very pop punk.

Dancing Man

So, in the course of my daily activities, I spend about four hours of my day on The Bus commuting to and from town (for those of you not familiar with Hawaii vernacular, The Bus is the major, surprisingly efficient mass transit system that goes through most of the island. Town is Honolulu.) Now, I spend a lot of time on the bus. I see a lot of different people. But the other day, one man in particular caught my eye. He wasn't doing anything with any of the other passengers, but he was sitting off in a corner, headphones covering his head, and when he tilted his phone screen I could see that a music video was playing on his phone. But none of those are markedly different from many of the other Bus passengers. No, what made this man different and caught my eye was the fact that this man was dancing . Picture it now. A tall man, with a square jaw and hooked nose, long brown curly hair caught in a ponytail at the nape of his neck. He had bushy eyebrows and his skin was a gol...
