Nearing the end of 38 weeks.

Its crazy to think that I'm gonna be 39 weeks on Monday! 

I've been thinking it's time for another pregnancy update, mostly because for some reason writing it down is good for my sanity haha 

I have actually been doing really good the last few weeks! 

It's funny I feel like a month ago I was sooo miserable, and I just expected it to get worse, but instead I got a nice break! 

But I'm afraid the break might be over haha

Lately I haven't felt too bad but I have been SO. TIRED!!!

I'm sure it was like this with Micah too, but it wasn't

a big deal cause I would sleep in and take super long naps.

This time I get up when I'm forced to by Micah (who has been

getting up super early lately) and then I just try to stay awake until

nap time.  Honestly I don't always make it haha Curious

George is a life saver basically every day around here.

Sometimes I think, maybe today I'll stay awake during Micah's

nap so that I can get some alone time/ get something done. 

And then I decide its not worth it, sleep wins every time.

I remember the good old days when I had a couple hours to myself 

everyday.. Now I spend every possible moment sleeping. 

A nap used to get me through the day, but lately I'm just so tired I can't seem to do anything no matter what! Someone please tell

me I'll get my energy back after the baby is born!

I know it'll take a while.. Recovery and sleepless nights and all 

that, but I'm really looking forward to the day when I can 

at least function for a whole day.

Anyways enough about how tired I am (really I should be sleeping right now, but I'm rebelling cause it's the weekend haha I'll pay for it tomorrow)  So the weather has been super nice lately!! 

The first nice day me and Micah walked to the park.  

It was AMAZING! I have been dying to get outside and go for a walk.  But it didn't take long to realize that a turtle could beat me in a race ha I walk so slow! But its all good.  Also I had to take several breaks on what used to be a super short easy walk. 

That walk really wore me out and ever since I have been dying to get outside again, but I'm just so tired I can't even do it :( 

Oh pregnancy....

I have been craving cookies like crazy lately.  Cookies, Blue cheese salad dressing, and as of right now, a sandwich! Cravings are intense and I am starving most of the time.  Including the middle of the night.  Tired and starving with the rare desire and burst of energy to clean something is pretty much my life right now.

I have to remember to give myself a break lately.  I mean I'm like a week away from my due date. So being tired is pretty understandable.  For a while I would try and force myself to do stuff anyways.. But now I have just given in.  I try and sleep and relax as much as possible! I mean I'm making a human! haha

I feel like I can't deal with anything right now.  I have the hardest time making decisions or anything like that.  Basically I tell Matt he can decide and I'll just deal with whatever cause that sounds easier then making decisions at this point! 

Oh and I still haven't packed a hospital bad.. Why is it so hard?? I brought the bag upstairs and put like two things in it, but for some reason its like the one thing I just REALLY don't want to do.

Chances are I'll be packing my bag in between contractions haha

I'm getting really excited at the thought of not being pregnant soon.  I can't wait to eat all of the runny egg yolks, deli meats, hot dogs, and blue cheese dressing I want without worrying about it! I'm also pretty excited to not be sharing my body haha it'll be nice to be able to bend over and roll over in bed without dying.  

But even with how excited I am to not be pregnant I actually don't want this guy to come early!  We are all getting over colds and I feel like every baby in the world has rsv right now.  I know there will still be lots of stuff going around when he is born, but I'm hoping that at least we will be healthy when he comes.  

I had three cavities fill on Thursday.  That was fun.  not!  laying in the chair was so uncomfortable and I was having such a hard time breathing.  And then they would fill my mouth with stuff and it would be next to impossible to breath and I would just have to try so hard to stay calm and not freak out.  Longest hour and however many minutes of my life haha but I'm glad that they are fixed and that I won't have to worry about it after the baby is here. 

Well there you go.. a bunch of random thoughts about being 38 weeks haha I can't believe we will be a family of four soon!! EEeeeekkk! don't worry, I'm only mostly freaking out haha
