I'm 6 months and 2 days today. I had a full weekend in L.A. and now I am heading back to Vegas. We haven't been home for over a month now. I had two full days of pilates on Saturday and Sunday. It was a little frustrating because I couldn't really do much. THEN, I actually went an audition and got a call back while I was in L.A! It's pretty ironic that for the last 6 months I've been dying for a beautiful belly and for the first time I was trying to hide my belly for the a audition. Of course... just my luck. I'm ready to get back to my life in Vegas. Although I loved being on vacation for a month, I feel like I need to start getting the baby stuff started. Yesterday Ivan and I went to Ikea and Baby's R Us. Ikea was great. I found a dresser I liked for the baby. When we got to Baby's R Us I kinda had a melt down. I was sooooo overwhelmed. I didn't know where to start. There wasn't anyone around to help us. There was another couple there who looked like an slightly older version of us. Older asian women holding a scanner looking completely confused as to what stroller/car seat to buy and older bald man saying, "maybe today is just the look day and not the register day....I didn't think this was going to take 3 hours." EXACTLY! I was thankful bald man brought a manager over to help us all out. The one good thing about Baby's R Us is that they have expecting mothers parking even closer than handicap parking!
Ivan is going on tour for 2 months next week. I'm a little anxious. I know I'll be fine because I have so much of my Stomp family in Vegas. I just really wanted to get to the nesting! I guess we'll have to wait until Ivan gets back in April. I'd rather have Ivan gone now then when baby is born. I am really thankful that he got work for the next 2 months, especially in this economy and me not working and all. Sigh...I'm going to miss him so much. Thank God for video iChat!

A call back! Cool! I know, registering is totally overwhelming. I did it mostly online, so that by the time we went to Babies R Us, I just needed a few more things, but still, online, in store, it's a lot to think about. I guess it's Xing Lao and Birdie - The Tour Brides, holding it down 'til the hubbies return.
Let's talk ASAP, I think I can help you sort through gear. It is overwhelming, and you can get sucked into buying stuff you will NOT need.
