Back at Borders and waiting for Dad to show up so that we may continue our reading, chats, and weekly spy business.
Andy and I packed the labor bag last night! It is sitting by our front door, ready to go. 31 days until her due date. I wanted to have everything ready by now because it is becoming increasingly harder for me to do things on my own – bending over is no fun, I get very tired of standing, etc… And, I know that this will only get worse in the weeks to come. Glad to have *almost* everything done and out of the way!
My mom came over yesterday and spent 2 hours helping me clean the kitchen! Thanks Mom!
People often ask me about cravings, etc… Here are some things I have noticed during pregnancy:
1. I now like ranch dressing (never did much before.)
2. Bacon always sounds good.
3. I tend to eat spicier foods.
4. My skin is greasier and prone to break-outs.
5. My tolerance for things that normally bother me has actually gone up!
6. Surprisingly, it does not bother me when anybody (even strangers) touch my belly.
7. Times passes more slowly… Probably all of this “waiting.”
8. I only need about 5 hours of sleep to feel well-rested.
9. I spend a lot more time cleaning. Everyone says its nesting… I think it is boredom taking over since I have nothing else to do.
10. Getting comfortable is a thing of the past.
