Preggo Meg O. - 33 Weeks! (plus a purse thief story)

Today I am 33 weeks pregnant! Woo hoo!! Baby O. is the size of a pineapple today, weighing 4.25 pounds! OMG, seriously?!?

I think I've really popped.....
What do you think? Pardon Greg's foot in the background. He was in the middle of watching Judge Judy (his other lover).

Random Preggo Thoughts:
- I discovered this dress in my closet and it works so well as a maternity dress! I forgot I had it.
- The scrape on my right foot is from falling down a few stairs in the theatre last week. Whoops.
- I had some nausea/puking the other night when I never had morning sickness this entire pregnancy. I am convinced it was a 24-hour bug because I was achy/feverish.
- Baby O. is definitely putting some pressure on my sciatic nerve. Sometimes I feel some numbness in my right leg while walking and it is so awk.
- It is getting more and more of a pain to get dressed every day.
- I still feel great, although I do feel like my weight gain has been too much. It's been close to 30 pounds. No lie. My butt and thighs feel like serious hams.
- My doctor said that he wasn't worried about my weight.
- My toes look absolutely atrocious, as I cannot reach my feet anymore. Professional pedicures from here on out!


And here's the infamous purse story from last night.

Greg and I went to a volunteer appreciation dinner (he is a court appointed special advocate for Child Advocates). Yep, a charity event. It was in this open air pavilion, so anyone could basically walk in and out. I brought a small purse with me with just a few items in it (iPhone, compact, lip gloss, driver's license, and one credit card). I got up to use the restroom and when I got back, the purse was gone. We started looking everywhere and it was nowhere to be found. We asked some of the caterers if they had picked it up, which they hadn't. So, we came to the conclusion it got taken. 

Immediately, Greg opened up the "Find My iPhone" app on his phone so we could locate my phone (because, obviously, that's where the purse would be). Sure enough, on the map, it was slowly moving a block away from where we were. Yep, it got stolen.

Greg was determined to get it. He and another guy ran off immediately. They got in Greg's car. Greg was driving while the other guy was looking at the GPS. Sure enough, they see this random hobo/ghetto dude walking down the street with my phone in his hand. They pull the car in front of him and accost the man, saying, "DUDE, what the EFF are you doing with my wife's purse?? MAN, what's your problem??? How dare you steal from a pregnant woman!!"

Random hobo ghetto guy said, "Man, I don't know what you're talking about! A dude named Eric sold this to me for ten dollars!"

Long story short, they pretty much ripped the purse and phone out of the ghetto hobo's hands and called the police while following him. They lost him and came back to the event. Next thing I see is Greg running towards me with my phone. The purse and phone were recovered. But for some reason, random ghetto hobo guy felt the need to keep my lip gloss, compact, driver's license, and credit card (which was immediately deactivated).

I hope ghetto hobo dude doesn't come to my house searching for retaliation. My thoughts is since he doesn't have a car, he probably doesn't want to walk 30 miles south.

Moral of the Story: Activate your "Find My iPhone", if you have one. It may save you from random ghetto hobo dudes.

p.s. Greg is a total BADASS.

First off you still look adorable at 33 weeks!

And CRAZY about your purse, I think I would have been more mad about the phone being lost than the drivers license and CC, glad there was pretty much a happy ending to that!

Alex said...

hahaha that story is excellent. Isn't technology great? But now I have this image of a random ghetto hobo man wearing your lipgloss.

Rebekah said...

You look so great!

I still can't believe that happened but how great is technology?? I'm so glad you were able to get it back. We have that on our phones and hopefully we'll never have to use it in a situation like that!

Ashleigh said...

What an amazing husband you have! Paul and I mess with the Find My Phone app all the time! Apple did us all a favor by inventing that app. So glad you got your purse back. How dare they steal from a cute pregnant lady!

Café Bellini said...

Ok so I had to come and read the story. Cool app! - you should tell Apple the story, I bet they'd be happy to post it on their website :-) I'm glad you got your phone back but the driver's licence, that is really crappy. Did you find out who 'Eric' was?

Lori said...

I can completely picture that entire story. Hilarious!

On a side note, you look completely adorable in that picture. That dress is too cute!

Jennifer said...

Freakin' hero!
I'm activating that now! So glad y'all were ok and you got most of it back.

You look amazing and I hope she lays off your sciatic nerve because I know what sciatic pain is and it's no bueno

What a night! So glad (in addition to the return of the iPhone) that it was a safe chase!

kisatrtle said...

You look great and th e purse story is nuts

Mary Nevin said...

GO Greg!! B.A. Husband of the year!!! Baby O is in safe hands!! Every pregnant woman feels like they've gained too much weight, not sure how that's supposed to make you feel better except power in numbers?? 30 is very average, I know a woman who gained 60 in her pregnancy and now is skinny as a rail. so never fear, you will not only be the most amazing mama around but you'll return to your old size faster than you think! Hope you're taking moments to take care of you and hope once the play is over you get some well deserved rest! xoxo

tara said...

OMG. that story is nuts!!!!! so glad you and your purse and your phone are ok!

Cajun Cowgirl said...

You look adorable girl! And I remember having a hard time getting dressed towards the end too. Nothing seemed to fit the right way or be comfortable! Luckily my last few weeks were in the summer so I didn't have to get dressed for work.

Your hubs is awesome! It sounds like a scene from a movie! But seriously, glad everyone is ok!

Stephanie said...

Greg is a freaking genius!!!

And you look adorable as everrr!!!

Amy said...

TexaGermaFinlaNadian said...

That is crazy!! And sweet. He was your hero!. Glad it only ended that way and the hobo wasn't too ape shiz crazy to do anything more.

KSK said...

Awe!! Greg is a super hero! :)
That's crazy though!!! I will be adding that app RIGHT NOW!

Jamie Lane said...

That is INSANE! I told my husband that story and he was like, I bet her husband has such a moment of justice! What a hero! :D

giaghani said...

I was looking forward to reading this story after I saw your tweets about it (tho not happy your purse was stolen). SO FANTASTIC that the boys recovered it. :)

And um, you look AH-MAZING. I can't tell that you've gained weight other than the belly area at all. You look beautiful!

Michelle said...

You look great!!!!

I can't believe the purse snatcher! There is an app for everything! I can't believe Greg went after it! I'm sorry you didn't get your license and CC back though!

[SMASH] said...

You look fantastic to be at 33 weeks. Hope the little nuggest is safe and sound in there! :)

And OMG I cannot believe your purse got stolen but that your hubs came to the rescue! :)

Lauren said...

I feel like I would have been far too angry and freaked to have thought about using the "where's my iphone" deal... I know I have it activated but I totally wouldn't have been thinking about it. I guess I would now though!

Shelley said...

omg that is nuts!! you look great!!

Michelle said...

I have that app on my iPhone, but I seriously just made Hubs put it on his just in case the same thing happens to me!!!

Yay for such a awesome hubby who chases down thieves!!!!

And you look beautiful!!!!!!! Loved spending all this time together this weekend!!!! Love you!

Savanah said...

look at you hot momma! And go Greg O! :)

Amanda said...
