things i forgot, things i don't want to ever forget, things i want to forget

things i forgot:

1. my birthday is this week and i didn't remember until the bank teller, checking my id, wished me a happy one. i was all, what? it's not my birthday soon. and she said, um, it's the day before mine and my birthday is next week. and then i was like, pshh, whatever, my birthday is in April. and she said, pshh, April is next week. and um, i was mo-dided. oops.
2. april fools is tomorrow?! I need to plan something for my coworker, fast!
3. 
   I got to work extra early this morning with two rolls of Costco saran wrap and two rolls of tin foil. :)
4. nordstrom cc payment. did i pay this or not?! damn baby brain.
   
5. stop by my brother's house to pick up my dad's W-2 and file his taxes.
   
6. what it's like to have a period. why am i still carrying around tampons in my purse?!
7. the taste of  fat tire, raw oysters, humboldt fog, moscato, and monk fish liver. le sigh.
   

things i don't want to forget:
1. three days ago, Baby K had hiccups 3 times in one day. They lasted almost 2 minutes each time.
2. thk can see Baby K moving in my belly now. my skin stretches with her movements, and my entire belly sometimes moves in waves. she's most active in the early mornings and late at night, usually waking me two to three times between midnight and 3am. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come.
3. twice this week, thk placed his hand on my belly and said, "BABY! you better KICK!" and she did, instantly. it was pretty awesome. my kid is obviously a genius.
4. thk puts toothpaste on my toothbrush every morning and every night. he also cooks us breakfast in the mornings so that I can hit snooze a few extra times every day, and dinner every night we don't go out so that when I get home from work (sometimes 2 hours after he gets home) we can eat right away. he hasn't complained about my lack of cleaning and rubs shea butter on my belly and boobs every night.
5. as of today, i'm 25+ weeks pregnant. 15 more weeks to go. i've gained 4 lbs in the past week. holy hell.
6. thk got me an awesome birthday present and gave it to me early- a bag for baby, the damier canvas neverfull gm (I'd been contemplating it for use as a baby bag) and a bag for me- the monogram canvas accessories pochette. thk is known amongst friends and family to be a cheap bastard careful with his money and it's very touching to me that he's willing to spend his hard earned money on something he feels is 110% frivolous just because they are items I adore and covet.

7. thk downloaded new ringtones for his phone and Baby K has her own-  Will Smith's Just the Two of Us. Dorky. it repeats "Daddy loves you! Daddy loves you!"
8. he also insists on playing songs on his ipod and sticking one earbud in his ear and the other earbud in my belly button. Because my belly button is slowly becoming an outtie, the earbud stays in there on its own. gross. they listen to music together and it's kind of cute.

things I want to forget:
1. the girl at church that had her baby girl three weekends ago (39 hours of labor, everything that could go wrong did, she refused c-section, had 6 epidurals, etc, ugh) showed up to service this past weekend and omg, she looked like hell. When I asked her how she was doing, her exact words were, "it's definitely not fun, and not what I thought it would be." I asked her if she needed help... I can offer her some of my time if she'd like..? and she responded with, "ok, come over. when can you come?" I felt awful for her, but more awful for myself because is that what I have to look forward to? Her husband said to thk, "man, you better sleep now. sleep every minute you can because you're never going to sleep again." he looked tired and defeated, too. :(
2. the two giant blue veins creeping across my chest. wtf! nasty.
3. ... my wedding thank you cards. they are still unfinished. i suck. if i owe you one, please know that I thank you... just not in card form. sorry.
