Boobs galore!

I fell asleep on the couch last night and Fredrik came and woke me up and took me to bed. And then I slept so well last night. Woke up at 08.20 on my own.. Maybe it is best to sleep without an alarm!

We had our last parent-group-meeting last night (the last one until the end of November).
Last night we talked about our time in the Maternity Ward - there really wasn't that much to talk about.. :/ But I really didn't feel so good, so maybe that is why I don't remember.. :/ :D It gets really warm in that room and I was getting a little light-headed.

And then we decided if we did or didn't want to watch a 35 minute video about breastfeeding. And in our group - there is one female that answers all the questions because no one else wants to talk. And you're always thankful for that person, because then you don't have to get called on.. :D But we have another female in our class that asks all the strange/embarrassing questions.. :D

When the midwife asked if we wanted to watch the breastfeeding film, she asked if it was just 35 minutes of a baby sucking on a breast.. And the way she said it was just SO hilarious that we couldn't stop laughing..

So we ended up watching the film (a Norwegian film from the early 90's), and I think we saw enough boobs and nipples to last us a lifetime.. :D

The video and the midwife said to do things the exact opposite of what they say to do in the US (or to do things that in the US they say not to do) - so it is conflicting for me.. :/ :))

On the 18th they are having an extra meeting about when to go to the dentist and just things like that - not sure we are going to go, we have our midwife appointment that day as well (which had to be rescheduled because of the extra meeting. It isn't a part of our group-thing, just an information meeting.

We worked a little on the room last night. We put down the white, soft, squishy stuff on the floor.. :/ :) Which has to be put down before we can put down the wood. The only way that we think we can try to conquer the slanting in the floor, is to just put extra padding.. :/ It is probably a big no-no, but that is all we can try. :/ So, we put down what was on the floor before, which is so old and flat, it probably doesn't do anything anyways. And then we put another, new layer on top of that. It isn't only that the floor is uneven... it has hills..! :/ :) So we want to make sure the wood holds up well and doesn't crack, etc.. :/ It is thicker wood than what was down before, and it won't give as much with bending, so we want support underneath.. :/ Blah blah blah..

So, tonight we hope to get a lot of the flooring done. It really doesn't take too much time.

Laptop should show up on or before the 27th, the e-mail said.. :/ :) So, we'll see when it gets here.

Fredrik called the delivery ppl for the washer/dryer, etc.. and the delivery guy said he usually delivers by himself - and Fredrik warned that there will be someone here, but that I can't help at all with lifting or moving anything (not a washer and dryer at least) - because it has to be taken up our deck stairs and lifted down the other side - since the other side of the deck doesn't have stairs yet *rolling eyes* ..... And then carried down the cellar stairs.. But he said that he can get another guy to come with him to help him out. So, that will show up on the 13th.

And then yesterday we received a paper in the mail that we are getting our chimney inspected by the commune. It is a routine thing, to clean it out and make sure everything is working well. So that will be btwn 09-10.00 on the 14th and the pellet burner has to be turned off. So no hot water or heat for us early Friday morning. But first Fredrik has to teach me how to turn off the pellet burner, unplug it and all that..
So I am expecting a Mary Poppins chimney sweep - I want to see dancing on the roof and 30 guys come popping out of our chimney.. :/ :))

HMmmm... *think*

I'm sure I'm missing something, it has been a little while since I've actually posted text..

Caesar's getting fat. :)
Was probably about a month ago that he finally lost his winter fat and fur -- but now it is already coming back again. We didn't really have much of a summer, so his clock is a little off.. :/ He joined us in the room last night while we were working. He was extremely interested and was intently watching us and sticking his nose into everything. :/ :)

Ooh.. The Hills have Eyes is on tonight..! A decent remake of a 70's classic.
Anxious to see the remake of Halloween. Not a movie to mess with in my opinion, as it is perfect already (the Scream-Queen), but I am a fan of Rob Zombie, so, I will give the movie a chance.

Karl-Astrid has changed schedules a bit. For a long time he/she was very regular with movements, etc. But now has shifted. He/She was doing the normal very active time in the late evening, around bed-time ... But now he/she is active pretty much all day long, and pretty quiet when I go to bed and wake up. He/She is very violent some times.. :/ :)

One afternoon, I had Fredrik feel my tummy, and you could feel the foot pressing against my side.. :) If you rub my belly, the baby will move or kick. :) Very amusing if you are bored and need an entertainment fix.. :)))

I think that is all for now, but forgetting something, like usual..
I'll try to get some pictures on later, right now I want to jump into the shower!
