Baby steps

We’re now in week 12, people! Are you wondering what I’m doing? Me too! Besides work, church and AAJA responsibilities, I’ve been busy taking folic acid, prenatal vitamins and trying to eat as well as I can. Seriously, trying to get all my vegetables is kind of hard. I need some recipes that incorporate more green and yellow vegetables. And I’ll probably have to get over my aversion to green, red and yellow peppers. Sigh.

In terms of baby preparations, you might be wondering if I’ve started with a registry, or preparing a room, or knitting baby booties….ah, no. I’ve been looking for a new place. And people in the Conejo Valley are asking for some ridiculous rents for their not so great units. I don’t understand it. I just saw an ad on Craiglist today, advertising a 2 bedroom, 1 bath condo in my city for $1850 a month! WTH???! I don’t think so.

I’d love a new place with wood or tile floors, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, with an attached garage (1 or 2) that relatively well kept for $1850 and under (preferably under). Is that really that difficult to find? Criminy.

In the meantime, I’m also planning on starting a new blog for the baby. I’ve got a name in mind….”Rock A Bye Blog.” Too corny? What do you think? Also, if anyone has any links to any personal baby blogs, I’d like to see them. I need inspiration for the design.
