Pound for Pound

Mondays...blech. Also...I want to know what genious thought that a 5 day workweek was a good idea...with only 2 days to rest. I'd love a 4 work/3 off. That makes sense. Maybe we can adapt Mexicos lovely tradition of siestas. Work in the mornings and then nap for a couple hours during the day. Who's with me??

Woke up this morning feeling like I was much heavier. The scale only shows a 2 pound gain (this is weighing at the end of the day) but I feel like she's grown. Hips and groin are very sore. Getting up from a sitting position to a standing is taking more and more effort...getting the show on the road is snails pace.

Once I get home, I admire my once flat feet, now turned puffy flat feet. I immediately strip off any work related clothing and change into the same jogging pants that I have been growing with me the past few months and change into a sports bra that doesn't fit, but does an ok job of harnessing my girls in. A little side boob never hurt anyone.

I've noticed that her kicks are becoming stronger...sometimes a tad bit painful. She likes to dig right into my hip bones and pelvic area. I am becoming more anxious as time comes closer. I can't believe less than 2 months. September 5 marked the official 2 month mark, and I am 32 weeks this week. Have an OB appointment this Friday. Should be a routine checkup.

We made a little more headway with the nursery yesterday. I was pleased. I decided to fold up the pack and play since it is not needed until she gets here. Organized the few articles of clothing we have for her (also the onesie purchased at Wal-Mart that says "Sugar, Spice, and everything nice". This weekend we will move P desk out of the office and re-organize the room. The crib and dresser/changing table will all be on one wall. The guest bed will be...somewhere in the room. I'm just glad things are on their way up and out.

Hope everyone has a great week. =)
