Since I got pregnant I have gotten much more forgetful than I normally am. I seem to have more blonde moments than ever now.-Not that they didn't happen before, just that it happens more frequently now. For example, last night I loaded up the dishwasher and reached under the sink to grab the dishwasher detergent. I pulled out a bottle, looked at it quickly and started pouring it in. After I started pouring I realized that instead of the usual white liquid that comes out it was orange and runny. What the heck was I doing?! I had grabbed the dish soap and just started to pour it on into the dishwasher instead! I'm pretty sure I'm losing it! Chad got a good laugh out of that one. I had another pregnancy moment when I was at the grocery store last week. I was in the produce section at Hyvee picking out a green pepper. I must have been standing a little too close to the display of perfectly stacked peppers because as I turned to put the green pepper into my cart my belly knocked over a couple big red peppers and sent them rolling on the floor! Yep that's embarrassing to knock something over with your mongo pregnant belly! Right away a sweet little produce worker came over and picked them both up before I had a chance to attempt to akwardly bend over to pick them up and told me that it happens all the time and not to worry about it. Another thing that I've noticed is that I've become clumsier than ever. I was at the gym the other night and I had brought three things with me: keys, my phone, and my ipod. I got on the eliptical and was on my way. Within 10 minutes of being in the gym I managed to drop everyone of those things at least once! You can just call me butterfingers! I know I've had many, many more moments like these since I got pregnant, but I just can't remember them. So maybe some of you can relate to these pregnancy moments, and if not, maybe it'll give you a good laugh for the day.

heehee Oh, Michelle, I totally understand how you feel! I was the exact same way. Have you started spilling things all over yourself when you eat? I never really do that unless I am pregnant...it's hard to remember you have a mongo belly when you don't normally. :)
Yep - you gave me a laugh - but then I remembered how clumsy and forgetful I was when I was pregos - LOVE IT!!!
That grocery store story is too funny. Pregnancy is such an adventure.
Sorry- this is Amanda- not Curtis!
Do you remember when I told you about going to Chili's to pick up an order I had placed at Applebees when I was pregnant? Yep, the baby takes all the blood supply from the brain I am pretty sure. Now my brain cloud is from sleep deprivation!
You brought back so many funny memories.... pregnancy is seriously an adventure!!!
I was super forgetful pregnant, and I'm not sure I'm entirely there all the time 2 months later! There are definitely some funny stories of me! In the meantime, I'll just laugh at yours!
So cute! I remember dropping a huge cup of soda while going to sit down at a restaurant.
At least you didn't start the dishwasher! I was in the middle of teaching a piano lesson once when the dishwasher just started foaming...like crazy!
