The Name Game

Hello party people...Happy Monday! It was seriously as hot as Hades this weekend that I slept with the fan and the AC on. This pregnant body o' mine was radiating heat and sweat all over the place that I felt like I could star in one of those old Kung Fu movies where the masters shoot stars and lightning bolts out from their hands. Oy vey...

Andy and I have been discussing names a little more seriously these days. I never knew that picking a name would be this difficult. I always knew the ones I liked growing up and I thought that it would be automatic for my husband to like the same ones I did. Biggest misconception! Since we've both been so stubborn on this, I'm wondering if the baby will be known as Baby Girl Beck for awhile after her birth. I'm contemplating whether I should play on Andy's weakness and just do the uncontrollable bawling sobfest that he can't handle...I know, I'm evil, but I really want my way on this. ha! Plus, I would like to point out that with all of the 1st trimester morning sickness, the current painful heartburn, the drastic change of my body and having to push out a watermelon through my vjj...I deserve to choose! Homeboy's lost his marbles if he thinks he has rights. lol...only kidding!

Anyhow, please wish us luck that we decide in the next couple of weeks in case of an earlier arrival of baby girl (knock on wood) and just for peace of mind sake. :) I leave you with my current belly bump shot. Hopefully, looking less poochy-esque. :)

Back to Reality

Today marks my 22nd week of pregnancy. Hubs and I just returned from our vacation and it was an amazingly relaxing time for us both. We decided however, that we're too old for the hubbub of tourists and noisy night life. We definitely prefer the quiet tranquility of Maui...I also appreciate this "babymoon" we went on, cuz I realized just how much I really like my husband. :) I thought we'd have some hairy moments of extreme annoyance, spending 24/7 with each other, but come Monday when we both had to go back to work, I really felt sad that we wouldn't be vegging together for the day...it's either that I really like him or I really didn't want to go back to work. HA! Either way, I felt re-assured that as much as he is a weirdo, he truly is my bff and I appreciated the QT we spent together. ;)

Here are some photos from our trip.

 Our beautiful breakfast morning view every morning at 6AM. We had major jet lag.

 Not bad. I gotta be honest and say that Zippy's was one of my faves in Oahu. :)

 Totally worth the calories...

Aloha Oahu! Aloha veg days!

By the way, a quick shout out to my dear friend Hannaman. She will be popping out baby numero tres today! Can't wait to hear what the sex of the baby is, since it's a surprise. Good luck pushin' mama! :) xoxo
