In which I use exclamation points all the time!!!

I've come down with the crud. It's not flu-like or anything, just a lot of sinus drainage and a yucky tummy along with some coughing.

I can't believe I only have 10 weeks and 5 days left until my due date! It seems so insanely impossible! I've heard that the third trimester goes slower, but it hasn't stopped galloping yet! I've got too many things to do to prepare the house for baby and I'm now entering the uncomfortable pregnant stage. The last few nights I've gotten to know the restroom really well...I think around 5 visits per night, which really allows for you to get to know the path from bedside to potty with your eyes closed! Superhubby still has to turn the lights on. I guess that's one talent I've gained, if nothing else, from being preggo. My next midwife appt is on this coming Monday...already! I'm not so sure I like driving an hour down and an hour back in trips so close together, I don't know how Superhubby does it everyday! The lil' one is moving a lot lately and I'm feeling a lot more rolls and tumbles in there, more so than the kicks and punches now. Oh, there still there! Just not near as often as the somersaults. Y'know, tying shoes and bending over is getting kind difficult to do now. Guess it comes with the territory!

With all the holidays coming up, I really wish we had the time to be able to visit our family down south this winter. Unfortunately, Superhubby was unable to get off when he wanted, because when the calendar got around to him, those times were already taken. We're praying that next year, he's going to get to see the calendar a lot sooner than he did before. I'm just hoping that somehow my grandparents can come up around Christmas or something. It'd be nice to at least see them. I know it's hard to take a long trip like that, but unfortunately, Superhubby can't get the time off... :-(( If nothing else, maybe they can come up when the lil' one is born.

Lil' sis has a stupid work schedule this next week! I'm so angry with her boss! Just because everyone else is going out of state for Thanksgiving means that she has to work on Wed. & Fri. of next week! Just because she lives in state?!?! She lives 2.5 hours away!!!! Grrrrrrrr!!!! I'm praying that her boss will have mercy and allow her to get Wed. off at least. Otherwise she's going to only be home from tonight until Tuesday. *sad*

Well, I think I've ranted enough! You like all my uses of the exclamation?!?!?!?! :-) Later peeps!

We need an update, huh?

Ok, so I have yet another (now we're at every 3 weeks) midwife appointment on Monday. Not looking forward to getting my blood drawn one little bit!

I think the baby has been having very short spurts of hiccups, like 4-5 hiccups then it's done. I just thought that they were rhythmic kicks, my baby's got rhythm! But I guess it's possible that they're hiccups, who knows!

I had a terrible headache invade my body on Tuesday overnight into Wednesday. I eeeked (sorry Superhubby, it's a word to me!) through the day on Wednesday while going to work and to the previously mentioned non-profit organization that helps with pregnancies before going home and practically crashing for the rest of the night. I hate skipping church services, but I would have been worthless and gotten nothing out of the service whatsoever! It was such a sickening headache that I didn't even eat supper! That's bad for me...now that I'm prego, I can't seem to skip a meal at all. But it's all over now, thank you Jesus!

I can't believe I'm already into my third trimester! Time has just flown by! I'm hoping that over the next few wintry months, I'll have time to get the nursery in order. I've not really worked much on it so far, been trying to keep up with everything else.

Well, I think I'm going to try to make some banana nut muffins for my Grandpa that I'll probably see tomorrow and then gotta get back to the laundry and dishes. Later all!

PS, thanks for all the wonderful comments! Love ya!
