Hello from the frozen tundra that is North Dakota! Can you believe we had another blizzard? About a *week* before Spring is officially here?? Good times...
Pregnancy wise this baby is just moving along! I still am not dealing with very many physical symptoms, but I am TIRED, TIRED, TIRED. I could sleep the day away and be perfectly content with that. Heartburn has started acting up in the last 2 days, especially today, but again is managable. Lots of movements - they have increased a lot and are very fun to feel. I had another appointment and everything was measuring as it should, with the next appointment bringing the glucose tolerance test. After that we move to 2 week appointments! That's crazy to me - being seen every 2 weeks already??! Argh!! It's going too fast -- we are hoping to have the upstairs of our house essentially remodeled in time for baby. New carpet and staircase should be in before the end of April, and painting done as well. After that new doors go up and updated light fixtures. I'm getting a little overwhelmed, but keep reminding myself I'm not moving, like I was with Oliver. That was ridiculous and I will *never* do it again. :)
Picture time! Since we already have all baby-essentials, (crib, stroller, car seat, etc.) I have felt a little detached from the arrival of this baby. Getting new carpet and paint is great but I would've wanted that either way. So I decided one thing to do was buy new bedding. I'm not going all out and getting a whole set, because I frankly will never use it all. I'm not a big crib bumper girl, and really never used a quilt/coverlet either. I am getting a "blankie" but plan to use it as such, for cuddles and nap times. Then I am getting a crib skirt, Circus fitted sheet from PBK and also bought an adorable fleece lion that I fell in love with. I can't wait to see it all together!
I also have to attach a picture of Jeremy snowblowing today - it was crazy for being in town. And nothing compared to some pictures I have seen of the country homes. They had cars literally buried in the snow.
Hope you all have a great rest of the week! Take care~jrm
