I think i'm going to take the whole week off of school this week. It was just going to be today, but i'm so stressed out. It's finals week, and that means i'll miss both classes tests. I went over my allowed "absent" hours, so that withdrew me from one class. I don't get a failing grade, I just don't get any grade at all and I have to re-take it. In the other class I have an A as a grade, and by missing the final it will bring me down to a B, possibly C, but I wont have to retake it.
The whole situation with my ex (Alex's dad) is just really stressing me out. He's moving out this Thursday when his mom comes to get him. I wish he could just leave now, but he has no where to go and i'm too much of a softy to make him stay on the streets. But he's really pushing it. He told me last night that he's already made plans to take Alex to TN to visit his family a few months after he's born. I told him he was out of his damn mind if he thinks i'm going to let him take my baby to another state!
Plus he assumes that i'm going to let him take Alex every weekend to his mom's house where they're compulsive chain smokers and pot smokers (IN THE HOUSE!!!). His family does nothing but argue and yell at each other. There's no way in hell i'm letting my baby boy go over there! I told him that if he wants to visit Alex then he's more than welcome to do so IN MY HOUSE. He said that his mom is already buying a crib and getting a room ready just for Alex. She shouldn't waste her money since there is no way in hell he's going over there. His whole family is psycho, and now i'm starting to see that he is too.
When he was packing his things, he said he's taking all of Alex's clothes with him because that's where Alex will be most of the time (with him). He didn't even buy 90% of the clothes Alex has! I & my parents bought it all! Why would I let him take all the stuff that he doesn't even own?!
Not even counting the fact that I plan on breastfeeding this child. You just can't pack up a newborn and decide to take a road trip every few days (his mom, and now him, live in a city about an hour/hour and a half away). There's no way I could pump enough milk to last that long anyway. And I refuse to suppliment with formula (nothing wrong with formula, Kota was a Similac baby and he's a happy healthy smartypants kid!).
This whole situation is just getting to me. I still have to schedule my c-section and i'm undecided on if I want Alex's dad to be there or not. I know I don't want his family anywhere near me. I guess i'll just let him come in for the surgery, sign the birth certificate, and then he's got to go.
So thats why i'm taking a week off school. I just need to do a lot of thinking about how this is all going to happen and what I want done. I have 2 months till the birth of my little boy. I didn't think it'd be this stressful!
On a happier note:
Over the weekend I took Kota to the 'Touch A Truck' event at a local park. He loves firetrucks, so the oppertunity to actually be on one almost made him explode!

Bump-tastic!
Today I realized that I really don't have any pics of me and my big ol' pregnant self! This weekend i'm thinking of having a friend take some amature maternity pics of me at the park. I took this one myself in my yard, haha! This is what I wore to my OB check-up this morning. I wont lie, i'm being a big hipocrit in this outfit. I'm 100% against wearing leggings as pants. LEGGINGS ARE NOT PANTS! But i'm pregnant, and they're sooo comfy. So maternity leggings are most definitly pants. :-P
The appointment went well. Tomorrow I have to go back and do my blood glucose 1 hour test. I had gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with Kota. Hopefully this time I won't have it! Go easy on me baby Alex!!

Let the countdown begin!
Only 99 more days till my c-section and baby Alex will be here! I get more and more nervous every day! The whole idea of having another c-section, and him finally being out. I'll be a mommy to a newborn again! Hopefully Kota will adjust quickly!! I'm sure he'll be a great big brother!!
Kota's napping right now, but once he gets up we're going to Once Upon A Child. I'm going to get him some new summer clothes and try to find a swing for Alex.
Update
I didn't find a swing I liked at OUAC. I ended up going to Babies R Us. They had a really cute Graco swing on sale. It was the display model. It was originally $150, it was on sale for $96. I really liked it and decided to get it. At the register the woman scanned it and it actually came up $69!!! Awesomeness!!! :-D Once I got it home Kota was really excited and wanted to try it out. I let him get in it and swing for a few minutes. When I finally made him get out he threw a fit! I don't have anywhere else to keep the swing since Alex's room hasn't been built yet, so it's hanging out in Kota's closet for now.

My chubby faced angel!
After his bath, my BabyCakes♥ was looking out his bedroom window at the kids walking home from school with their mommies & daddies. I live down the road from an elementry school. He loves watching the kids walk down the sidewalk infront of the house. I always think about how soon i'll get to walk him to school. Sooner than I think... *tear*
I had to share his cuteness with the world, lol!

Preparing for Baby Alex!
I went to Walmart today because they had a crib on sale and I wanted to see what it looked like. It turns out it's a crib AND changing table set! It was the color I wanted too!! So now i'm the proud owner of a new crib and changing table for Baby Alex! :-D
Back to class tomorrow! We're drawing blood again. I'm not as nervous as I was last time. I already did it once on someone and the instructor said I did it like a pro! So this second time should be easy peasy!
