HONEYDEW This and HONEYDEW That

"What's so hard about being pregnant?  I do all the chores while she gets to lie around and watch TV.  I need break too!"
-John Gosselin, divorcee

Let's get this thing over with!  Weeks 33-36 mark the official "uncomfortable" stage of pregnancy.  The glowing Mommy to-be from the second trimester has been completely ambushed by back aches, cramps, swelling, and carpal tunnel, bringing about the "knocked-up" version of the evil stare.  The only thing that turns the scowl upsidedown is that Baby Campos is a healthy honeydew!  She's growing at a rapid pace and making space in the tummy by throwing them 'bows.  But with so much still left to do before she wiggles out, Daddy has been dealt the dreaded "Honey-Do List."

If you have a lazy husband, then you're probably familar with a Honey-Do List.  It's a simple way to avoid nagging your spouse about doing the crap you don't want to do.  It's only hu-MAN nature to grunt and whine about doing these chores, but you really just have to make it work for you:

Take out the trash = Work on sculpting your "guns"
Decorate baby room = Goodbye pink birds, hello Air Jordan poster
Do the laundry = Keep wife from tossing your old, yet comfortable underwear

It's all worth it to make life a little easier for the mother of your child.  Besides, in a few years Baby Campos will have a Baby-Do List of her own...Item 1: Get a Job.
