I’m not feeling overly pregnant. I guess I really shouldn’t expect much this early? I remember having all day nausea with my first two, but don’t quite remember how far along I was when it started. I do have to pee quite frequently, and I am a bit hormonal. I’m afraid I might be an angry pregnant lady this go round. It’s not like you can help it when you are hormonal, but it seems like everything is bugging me and I have a very short fuse. I scheduled my first ob visit, which isn’t for another 2 weeks. I hope they do an ultrasound that day and give me an official due date (oh and that they tell me everything looks ok so far, duh!). Waiting to buy baby items is hard. I find myself gravitating to the baby section when we go shopping now. I really just want to spill the beans, but we have decided to wait until Christmas to tell people just in case something goes wrong. I went to my cousin’s baby shower on Friday, and everyone kept asking me when I am going to have another one. It was so hard to keep quiet about being pregnant!
I had my job interview today. (Did I mention that I had one on here? OD has been so bad lately) It went well I think. It is a part time secretary position at the university. There were three people interviewing me, and I seemed to mesh well with them. They actually seemed to like the fact that I am a mom and I don’t mind the job being part time. I told them that it would give me the best of both worlds, I still get to spend a lot of time with my kids, and I would also get to have a career. We will see though. They were interviewing 2 more candidates this week, and if they pick me, I will know on Friday. Of course I’m torn on accepting the position if i do get it because I would have to go on maternity leave just 7 months after starting. I’ll figure all of that out if/when we get there. They asked me 14 basic questions, then we spent quite a long time just talking about the job in general. I think it wound up being 45 mins for the interview which is the longest I have spent in one yet. I wasn’t nervous at all really once we started. I am slowly getting over this nervousness and I am starting to relax more around new people. Being a stay at home mom for so long can make you feel so awkward and antisocial.
I may be babysitting a little girl tomorrow. Her aunt was Owen’s Birth to 3 coordinator. I’ve never met the little girl or her family. It is a little weird for someone to just be dropping off their child who has never met me. Hopefully it goes well though if they do bring her.
Owen had his first basketball game on Saturday. It was too darn cute. They wouldn’t really dribble the ball down the court (most of them just picked it up and ran with it to the hoop), and the coaches made sure the kids got turns shooting the ball. We decided to keep Ethan out of the game because he just cant follow instruction. I was hoping he would cooperate, but during practice he would just run around crazy and get in the way. We may give it a try this Saturday and see if he is interested.
