Still Growing!

I've noticed the last couple of weeks that I feel huge. My pelvic girdle pain has really been acting up and there's not much at all that I can do about it except just deal with it. So that's what I'll do!

I had an OB appointment today and everything is looking good. And I'm measuring a fair bit ahead. That explains the feeling huge part! I didn't ask HOW far ahead since I don't want to read anything more into it than, yup, you're getting big. And really, it's not like we grow small babies anyway. So, it is what it is.
She's growing.
She's kicking and punching.
A lot.

It's hard to believe but my appointments are now going to be every 2 weeks and my next one will be the fun, fun glucose test. I'm hoping that goes well. It hasn't been an issue at all in the past for me but the measuring big part has me going "hummmm..." in the back of my mind.

When I got home I decided that since I was wearing "real" clothes - read: not painting clothes or pj's - I would snap a quick picture since it's been 5 weeks since my last one.



The realization that we may actually be bringing a live baby home again is starting to get my nesting need in high gear. And really, who wants to be painting and rearranging furniture (or more accurately, directing the furniture moving) at the very last minute? I'm not a last minute person if I don't have to be and circumstances are within my control. So, I'm hoping that we can get a lot done during Jim's upcoming 3 day weekend. I've started the painting process by painting the "big" room ceiling and started on the walls. We'll be painting the varnished trim and doors white to lighten it all up and that'll take a fair bit of prep time so I'm trying to get a jump-start. Then we'll paint Karleigh's current room and we'll just trade her places. I'm annoyed with myself that I forgot to take "before" pics of our current room but oh well!

So, things are cranking around here and I'm so ready for spring to arrive. The warmish, wet weather isn't helping calm me down any and the flowers already poking their tiny green tips of new life through the soggy ground around here really, really isn't helping!
