LONG overdue update
So...I've been awake since 4am. wtf? I don't know what is up with me. I could be sleeping til 6:30am! But no. I crashed around 10 or 10:30 last night and I haven't been sleeping well anyways, but this is recalculus!
The baby is doing well. I can now see from the outside a lot of his/her movements! Helena saw the movement for the first time last night and it weirded her out! She won't look now. As much as she loves monsters, skeletons, aliens, etc, you would think she would be ok with all of this. She is counting down the days til the baby is born, but she doesn't want to think about something alive in my stomach. I am visiting the doc every two weeks now. The baby jumps around alot more than Helena did at times, and this time around she or he likes to alternate sitting on my bladder and pushing on my diaphram and lungs making breathing kinda hard. This being exhausted after changing over a load of laundry or vacuming a room is getting stupid. I feel like such a wimp! But I rest so the baby is healthy.
School is gearing up for finals here in a few weeks. EEEEEK! Out of the 5 papers, 2 presentations, and 1 midterm exam I had at midterms I received A's on 3 of the papers, both presentations, a B on the exam, a B minus on the 4th paper and a C on the 5th paper with the option of revision to get a better grade. Since that C paper is 30% of my grade in that class I am revising my ass off! I also have to read quickly this next book for fiction in order to start the 10 plus page paper, and I also want to start now on my papers for lit (it's a critical analysis on Bram Stoker's Dracula so should be fun) and my last mythology paper. Whew!
And, we are so not prepared for the baby's arrival! We still have to deep clean everything, pull up the carpet and lay down new flooring in the office which will be the baby's room. Get that all set up with crib and pull out all of Helena's baby clothes. I have to plan a shower since you get to have a baby shower if it is more than 5 or 6 years between kids which is good cause we don't have much of anything left except some clothing, crib, and high chair. If this baby is smaller (please, please, please) then all new clothing too.
I also have cut back to 4 or 5 hour shifts cause any more and I am trashed for the rest of the day. Again, I feel so lame that I get so tired so easily! I long shower wipes me out for half a day!
I think that is it!
How are all of you? Give me updates and let me know how all of you are!!!
I miss all of you!
