My feet look like cuts of ham with sausages for toes.

Getting off the couch now requires a two-part hoisting process of slide-to-the-edge and prepare-for-takeoff.

There is a piscine alien in my belly kicking punching thumping bumping away. K got to feel that extraterrestrial through my mountains of belly fat the other day, which was thrilling for all three of us! (I think) Everything’s coming up Evie, we had our final anatomy scan on Monday and she is growing at a perfectly normal pace!

spooky itty bitty baby face!

Currently obsessed with nail polish (about to apply Rescue Beauty Lounge’s Locavore, which a friend was kind enough to lend me! I was sad to see my rainbow-dotty mani go away, but SO excited to try out such a beautiful glitter! One coat down, and I’m already in love. I can almost understand why that girl on My Strange Addiction drank nail polish.)

first ever dotty mani! it's messy and crappy and whatever, but it was FUN.

Missing the Gabby horse SO MUCH and am hoping to get out to see her more regularly. Saw her last week, and I think she missed me (and my peppermint sticks!) too!

Selling at least one of my saddles, maybe both. If I sell the better one, I’ll be happy and keep the cheaper, older one. If I sell both, I will ride Gaberdeen Lurleen bareback for a year while saving up for another nice saddle, becoming a better, more stable, more secure rider in the meantime.

Missing the company of some old friends.

Working on a large-scale commissioned portrait, that I’m very excited and nervous about. Lots of other creative ideas percolating, just need to press “brew” and see what comes out. I hope it’s coffee! Or creativity, I suppose.

My brakes! Are! Getting! Fixed! Soon! Which is inexplicably awesome. Because the grinding and the shaking and the herky jerky weren’t so much fun, and actually pretty nerve-wracking.

Have been having some absolutely terrifying dreams, most notably a (seemingly) REALLY long one which was more like a horror movie than a nightmare or a dream. YAY! Thank you, pregnancy hormones.

Hating a lot of stuff lately, but loving more than I hate, which I think is Very Important and also Kind Of Adult.

Getting so kind of very tired of zombies. I’m sorry.

Soy green tea lattes are my new thang. Git you some. I have been nursing a hot GRTL since I got off work, and now that it’s cold, I’m going to pour it over ice, because I like my dranks to be multipurpose, dang you.

Our baby registry is finally done – I think. Any mamas or papas (or The Mamas and The Papas) want to suggest any must-haves that we might have missed?

Made a Frankie-sleeps-strangely tumblr, and I think he’s caught on to me, because a lot of times when I catch him sleeping in a weird position, he moves out of it RIGHT as I take a picture. I AM TRYING TO MAKE YOU INTERNET-FAMOUS HERE, DOG. And he just fell off the couch, so maybe he doesn’t deserve it.

What’s new with you?
