My Pregnancy must-haves

I wanted to do a blog of things that I must have as a pregnant woman! But first, let me tell you about my V-Day. While I was sleeping, Paul was making his arrangements for my Valentine's Day gifts. This morning I woke up to a card and a rose beside my bed. Sweet! Then when I came out, my kitchen and dining room were clean!! I cried over this early last night. And on our dining room table was red roses and pink carnations, a box of chocolates, chocolate covered strawberries, and a big stuffed animal! Normally people wouldn't think this was a big deal...but Paul got the strawberries and made them chocolate covered all by himself! He melted chocolate and prepared everything while I was sleeping, because he knew it was what I would love. I really don't need expensive gifts and I said no jewelry since I'm swelling anyway. lol. I'd rather save the money for our baby :-) We aren't going out to dinner either. Saving money...So Paul made this completely perfect! He put time and effort into creating something I wanted. I LOVE my husband. On top of all that I got my car back!!! No more rental car. I'm excited. AND I got my maternity bathing suit that I ordered for our perfect vacation coming up. AMAZING DAY! Now...on to my pregnancy must haves...

1. A Supportive Husband- I would be LOST without my man. He is the greatest help and encouragement at my lowest and highest points in this pregnancy. Also, he's wonderful for helping me satisfy cravings...at weird hours in the day too!

2. A Boppy Total Body Pillow- I love it and I sleep so much better know. I don't know how I will go back to just using my one head pillow. This is a head pillow, belly pillow, leg pillow--all in one. It's awesome.

3. A good maternity wardrobe- liking what I'm wearing helps a lot when I'm feeling "big" or swelling alot. Body changes can make you down in the dumps, so splurging on a few nice things is necessary (for me).

4. Pregnant friends- Who else can REALLY understand what you are going through at the moment? hehe.

5. A big savings- Such peace of mind knowing that we can buy everything we need for our baby girl. I am SO excited about getting eeevvvverything. It's *my* pregnancy must have since I'm psycho about everything being just right.

6. Diet coke- I neeeeed caffeine. Desperately. lol.

7. Pasta or mexican- I seriously can never get enough of either of those foods! It's crazy how cravings are different with everyone.

Ok, I've blanked out. I'm multi-tasking and getting tasks confused, so this post is coming to a close. I am suuuuper excited about everything. Especially vacation...and our mini vacation that is within our vacation. lol! Bring on Wilderness at the Smokies. Woot woot!
