BABY'S SIZE     an eggplant!  still the same range, but starting to become a different shape.  hah.

HOW I'M FEELING     got a case of the tireds this week.  all i want to do is take naps.  it was verrry hard to get motivated to take eda to the park to see her friends (probably 3 blocks away).  i'm trying to push through it, but it isn't easy.

WHAT I'M EATING     salads at work, although i keep having big eyes and getting a bunch of extra stuff that i'll never be able to eat.  oops.
i woke up for work the other day and arley said, "i was just getting ready to cook some eggs and bacon."  (i LOVE breakfast for dinner)  "or would you rather have cereal?"  and then i had cereal.  oops.

HOW I'M CHANGING     this is one of those times, i looked at the picture of myself and was shocked at how much my belly has grown.  when i look down at it, it still seems about the same.  it makes me feel better though about having such a hard time rolling over in bed, and having weird side aches and back tweaks.

MOVEMENT     i got a little nervous earlier this week.  baby had a lazy day.  and i do not like those. luckily, i was at work and was able to go to L&D and beg them to check a heart tone with the doppler.  hint:  baby was just fine and doing some smaller wiggles, apparently, that i couldn't feel.

SLEEP     grrrrr.  getting very frustrated.  i've still been wanting naps and lots of extra sleep.  and i cannot sleep well.

THINGS THIS WEEK     i was supposed to go on a hike with some ladies from work, and i totally slept through it, and slept through my alarm.  i'm a little bummed about that.
also, i finally used my birthday maternity clothes gift card to buy some maternity clothes.  i'm a little excited about it!

LOOKING FORWARD TO     baby shower season is coming!  i actually don't know how looking forward to any actual baby showers i am (it feels weird to say, "come over, but make sure you bring something from this list of things i want"), but i AM excited to see everyone.

FUN FACT     baby is starting to put on fat and working on more brain development.

making sure she doesn't get left behind

freshly made bed, can you tell?

some pretty weather on the way to work

and now i am caught up.  whew!
