About 90 days to go!

This entry is probably going to be all over the place because that's pretty much where I'm at these days.

On a positive note this week has been pretty good so far. I'm really feeling well and have been sleeping HARD. I still get uncomfortable and have to turn over every hour or couple of hours and Cody is definitely still bouncing around in there...but I'm so EXHAUSTED that I'm sleeping through it. My hips still feel like they are about three feet apart but so far I don't notice an obvious change when I look in the mirror. Lots of growth, stretching and new pains going on. I am SO excited about our next (and final?) ultrasound next week on the 11th. It will have been two months since we've seen Cody so I can't wait and pray for a healthy report.

I'm starting to get really anxious about being a mother of two. Our whole family dynamic will change...our schedule...everything will change. I know it will be fun and so rewarding so I'm definitely looking forward to it, just nervous about how we'll make it all work.

Adding to my stress and a little bit of lonliness is David's busy work schedule for the past few weeks. They've had training classes on their days off and have been working overtime to cover for other officers. It goes with the territory and is to be expected, but as I get bigger, tireder and more uncomfortable- less help and support just makes it harder. This weekend David is off but has to work on Sunday. On Saturday we're going to the UT/UCF football game. I'm a little nervous about all the walking, climbing stairs, standing through the game...until I realized something. This is Cody's first longhorn football game so I bet he'll be on his best behavior! If you read my Facebook updates you've probably seen me write about how Cody gets in this little corner and just digs in especially when I'm walking or standing for a length of time. It could be an interesting day but I wanted to go to this game for sure because it's Veteran's recognition day and that's been a special game to me ever since the first time David and I got to go to one together. I'm so proud when he stands up with all the other veterans- and the flyovers and fireworks are pretty awesome too. An added bonus, it's also Alumni Band weekend and it's always so awesome to see like 700 former LHB members on the field and watch all of the previous twirlers etc. It'll be another beautiful day at Royal Texas Memorial Stadium with two of my favorite guys.

Work is work. Tring to push it here lately while I have the energy to get a few things done around there. Before you know it I'll be getting everything ready for the new year right before Cody comes. I was thinking today that I'll only be doing the client invoices a couple of more times before Cody will be here. So amazing. Since I'm not throwing up 24/7 things have flown by! Last week I think I got sick two days and probably will again this week. It is no fun to wake up and wait around to see if anything is coming, but not having day-long nausea feels amazing! I'm hungry! Today I was hungry again just two hours after having breakfast whereas usually I have been eating every 3-4hrs in smaller portions. Maybe it was just a random thing. Still hoping that weight gain is gradual; we'll find out soon enough.

Yankees win. Night Night.
