Just resting up

Well, I haven’t been around much. I have been in a bit of pain and today I found out why. My doctor said I was 80% effaced and 3 cm dilated. He said when she comes she will come fast. I don’t think I will make it to my due date. I feel a bit better knowing that I haven’t been feeling pain for nothing. I was hoping I wasn’t just wining. I feel a bit more positive.

Our move is coming up soon too. We don’t have a place yet but we have put in applications to two places. It will be good when we can start living in some order again. We have about ten boxes packed. Not large boxes but still they count. Cullen is going to have to do most of the packing because I just can’t do too much. I can put things in boxes if they are brought to me and aren’t too heavy.

My laptop needs to be fixed. It won’t close. I think we will be taking it to be fixed next week. So I will let all know what is going on after I get it back. I haven’t spent too much time on my computer because my belly hurts if I sit here too long.

Well that is the news for now.
Hope you all are doing well. Sorry I haven’t been around, but I think being pregnant gives me a little bit of an excuse.

Almost there

I am glad and very happy I am having this baby. I am also very thankful that she will be on the outside next month. Then I will be able to see her and hold her in my arms. I won’t have morning sickness every day, I will be able to bend over without feeling like I will never be able to get back up. I will be able to walk without stabbing pains in my pubic bones. I won’t have to pee every five minutes. I will be able to sit without getting all cramped. My whole body won’t constantly feel like it is falling apart. I will actually be able to do some cleaning without having to lie down after because I am in pain. The house looks like I feel, awful. I am so ready to have this baby.

Right now she has hiccups and is moving around a bunch. Feeling her movement makes me happy.

Gregory is causing the house to become more of a disaster, but he is happy and his cheerfulness makes it easier for me to get through the day.

I can no longer sit in this chair so I will get off the computer. I just wanted to say that I am still alive, which is a good thing, and that I won’t be around much until my baby is on the outside instead of the inside, because I start cramping up when I sit down to my computer.
So, I must go lie down and get uncramped.

Rainy showers bring May flowers

It has been raining here almost every day this past week. Usually it is only drizzling so we can still get outside.

Gregory has mastered peddling his bike with training wheels. Every day he can he has gone outside to ride his bike. He loves it. He picks riding his bike over everything. It is more fun than all the other toys he has and TV.
I asked him the other day if he wanted to watch TV or go ride his bike. I was thinking he would say TV, but he chose his bike. Then he handed me the remote and told me to turn it off. We got our shoes on and headed out.

Cullen had fun a week or two ago when he went to a basketball game with his friend Forrest. My friend Caitlin gave us some tickets so Cullen went. He had such a great time too. I didn’t really want to go because sitting in one place for that long didn’t seem like fun to my pregnant behind.

I need to get Cullen to take some pictures of my belly, because everyone seems to think I am only four or at the most five months pregnant. I feel huge and my body is feeling the affects of the extra twenty pounds. I just can’t believe I look that small. This makes me worry a bit, but the doctors say I am growing nicely, so I will trust my doctors. I also can’t imagine having to redo the months I have already gotten through. My baby will be born in May no matter what anyone thinks. Only six weeks to go.

We also don’t know exactly when we are moving. Cullen asked and the lawyer suggested moving in May. Um… It will all work out. It will.
