What's been on my mind lately? Pregnancy. Here's my list
1) Yesterday I realized I was only 35 weeks pregnant...not 36. That was a sad, sad realization.
2) I was told that second pregnancies "go by in a flash." I feel like I've been pregnant for years. YEARS I tell you!
3) My OB asked me if I felt smaller, bigger or the same as I did last pregnancy. I answered, "I'm not sure. I just know I feel HUGE and that the general public opinion is that I am very large." He laughed and stated that he did not agree. Good answer, doc. Good answer.
4) I dream of the day I can run again. I'd also like to be able to buckle my sandals without exerting such great effort.
5) I am HOT, HOT, HOT! MN weather is sounding fabulous right now.
6) My friend sent me $5 for third trimester ice cream cravings. Isn't she the sweetest? I probably should save that money for a gym membership...see number 3, Jessica :}
7) I'm not sure how people spend years of their lives pregnant?? I've spent 17 months of my short life in this state and I'm not sure I ever want to try it again.
8) That being said, I am so thankful that God has allowed me to experience carrying and birthing my children. I don't take that blessing lightly. It is TRULY a blessing that I'm thankful for every day and my heart aches for those who are unable to conceive or carry their children to full term. I don't usually talk about my pregnancies much, b/c I know there are so many dealing with this difficult issue.
9) This baby likes to STRETCH. Sometimes I feel like my stomach is going to rupture b/c my little bambino is stretching every limb out as far as she possibly can.
10) Audrey is in denial. She does not want to talk about the baby. According to her, she is not having a baby sister. Oh dear. There may be some rough weeks ahead.
11) Apparently, I don't nest while pregnant.
12) Audrey is moving to a big girl bed on Friday. Pray for us.
13) I truly mean it when I said "Pray for us" in number 12.
Well, this stiff, prego lady needs to go do some yoga. Thanks for listening to my musings:)
