it is week 40 and each day could be THE day. hank and i talk a lot about how these are our last days to rest up and take random outings. we spent most of the holiday weekend at my mom's pool, playing and swimming with easton. we ate a lot of good food and took some naps. it feels almost illegal to be relaxing so much but everyone keeps telling us to soak it up so we're trying. we did get some organizing and cleaning done. all the baby clothes are washed and put away and ohmygoodness, do we have a lot of clothes for this boy! - thanks to all our friends and family!! [thank you cards...must. write. thank you cards!!]
not much new to announce...
sleeping is still easy until i have to move.
eating is still great. good food to be had, no heartburn or acid reflux.
weight - no idea. the scale is upstairs and well, climbing stairs to step on a scale is not my idea of a good time. so yeah, that doesn't happen.
oh, one new thing is the awesomeness of carpal tunnel syndrome. is there anything fabulous about not being able to bend your fingers in the morning, after a long night's sleep? umm, nope. ouch, ouch, and ouch! it usually improves as the day goes on but dang, fingers are like, super important! i like mine to operate normally so i'm looking forward to that possibility. fingers crossed...oh wait, maybe later.
thing i'm most looking forward to: baby river's birthing day
xo
gurl I wish for a smooth delivery. I've heard about Carpal Tunnel during pregnancy... some of my co-workers had them and it went away. weird. Baby R needs to pop!
