The everyday life of living like Kings...

Preggo Post

Well...

I am trying to think of things that are going on in my life that I can blog about.... however.... the most exciting thing in my life right now is Baby King... and how she is affecting me.
The biggest thing Baby King likes to do to me is give me heartburn.... BAD heartburn. I get heartburn from drinking milk. It is absolutely awful. I went to the doctor the other day (or week) and the nurse asked me if I was eating okay. When I told her yes, but "I am eating Tums like they are candy," she gave me a strange look. Then she said, "Did you ask the doctor is Tums are okay? I don't think they are." Well.... this TOTALLY freaked me out... and it would you too if you knew the large quantities of Tums I eat on a daily basis.....

Well, I asked my doc and he said Tums were fine.... but suggested I switch to Zantac. I was very weary of this idea..... especially since Tums and I had formed such a close bond the past 4 months. However.... the other day as work was "Chili Day." I knew I was in trouble. I broke down and tried a Zantac. Let me be clear, I said just ONE Zantac..... ONE. Any heartburn? Absolutely nothing!! It was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. Since then (this was just yesterday) I feel like a whole new, brighter, happier, person. :) So.... I have not had a Tums for 2 days and I am loving it.


hmmm..... what else??? I have felt little Baby King start kicking!!! Last week I was laying on the couch.... concentrating..... and I felt her! Though I wasn't sure if it was just gas... I knew it was a different feeling than anything else.... but I still wasn't so sure. Then, when I went to Texas for vacation, she really started to move around. Now she kicks whether I am laying or sitting up.... It is just so weird!!! She's really in there..... She is kicking as I TYPE this! I have a baby inside of me...... Is that weird to ANYONE else?!?!

Those are the exciting things of my pregnancy so far. The next paragraph may not be suitable for men.... just an FYI. Stop reading. The more un-exciting things...... my ginormous boobs. For those that know me, you know I have some pretty big twins WITHOUT being pregnant..... now I am in a whole new porn star level of boobage.... however.... my belly is getting bigger which makes them not so porn-starish and more just disgusting. I actually had to move into different scrub tops for work, not because my belly was too big... but because I could not get my boobs out of them at the end of the day!! You should see Austin & I at home trying to get my scrub top off..... it is awful!!!

Well.... this is it for now. I wish I had more... but this has been consuming my life and body for the past 20 weeks so I thought I should have a blog about the adventures of Browyn's pregnancy. Also.... next Tuesday (November 3rd) we find out is she is indeed a She! So.... Stay Tuned!

Being a Man

So.... I am not a very fast blogger. I am not quite used to writing new blogs all the time.... Right now I am in San Antonio, (I will blog about this trip later), but my sister, Molly, and her husband, John are CONSTANTLY thinking of things to write about in their blog. After anything funny that happens they say, "Oh my! We are blogging about that!" or "That is going in our blog!" It is so depressing that I do not have this skill....

I would like to say my "other half" has not yet made his appearance in the blog spotlight. He did say he was going to write a blog last weekend (when he wasn't working) and he did not. I came home after working 12-13 hours on Saturday and Sunday..... and Austin was sitting on the couch... this is how our conversation went:

Browyn: "Hey Austin! How are you? What did you do today?"

Austin: "I did Man things"

Browyn: "Man things? Like what?"

Austin: "I organized the garage, like a man."

Browyn: "Oh yeah, what else?"

Austin: "I mowed the lawn, like a man."

Browyn: "And??"

Austin: "I moved some furniture, like a man."

Browyn: "Did you write the new blog?"

Austin: "No. That is not manly."

Sad. Soon... he will grace us all with his writing.... however. He seems to think that once he writes blogs then nobody will read mine anymore because his will be "so much" better. Well now Austin.... no pressure now.
