Watch out for nesting instinct attacks. When I was early in the labor process I had an irresistible urge to rake leaves. I went waddled outside and raked our front yard. Then, not satisfied, I went to my left-hand neighbor's house and raked their front yard. Then I attacked my right-hand neighbor's yard. Eve came out, totally horrified, asking, "Meriko, what are you doing?!" I told her that I just felt like raking leaves. She laughed, shook her head, and then told me, "You're in labor, honey."
All in all, the laboring process took four days, although three of those days were spent blissfully unaware that my body was doing strange things like (whited out for gross-out factor) dilating and shedding mucus seals and letting the baby "engage" snugly into my pelvis.

*admires how Tiana's winged anklets float entirely off of her body* I wish these jeans were just slightly more fitted around the ankles so that my little winglets weren't touching my legs at all. X3

*rofl* Have to love the labor stories. I think over a single weekend I heard at least eight different stories from only three people -- two sisters and my mother. This was actually mild, considering that my mother had eight children and each sister had two.
I read about some poor woman whose "nesting instinct" manifested itself by getting her up at 4 am to go and fertilize the lawn, herself, with a giant wheelbarrow, so the baby would come home to thick green grassy lawn.
At the moment, I'm just concerned with finding the space to set up a crib. I don't think that's unreasonable. If the baby were born today, he would have to sleep in our bed, or in his bassinet teetering on top of it. We don't even have a drawer he could use... *eyes tiny apartment apprehensively*

X3 I can still see the little bit of gold of the straps through the NM Boots. I'm just glad that because of the new layering, I can wear stockings with the Anklets.

Are you guys still in the makeshift apartment with the in-laws? Maybe it's time to get your own apartment? You'd certainly have room then.

Yep, we basically live in the garage, with two rooms of our own. If I had a dollar for every time someone suggested we move out... maybe we could actually afford it. *lol* At the moment, if we move, it will be to Idaho, where you can rent a four-bedroom house for the price of a studio apartment in the Seattle area. We just have to figure out what on earth Hubby will be able to do over there. This is definitely a temporary venue, though. I don't see the baby getting older than six months in this house.

I thoroughly adore the fact that the gold on the anklets will disappear if you equip certain hats. X3 I love my chibi-wing ninja furry outfit. *heh* See? No gold. *sends telepathic hints to Kimi that California is a wonderful place to raise a child, and that there's still affordable housing available if one doesn't mind having cows for neighbors*
