(Disclaimer: Week 30-33 might be a little sparse... I'm writing these mid-week 34, and the last few weeks have been a daze, so I may have forgotten some details...)
We are all "moved" into the house! Meaning all of our posessions are at our new house. Everything is currently in a state of complete disarray while we paint kitchen cabinets and prep the Master bedroom/bathroom for the remodel. We can't really unpack and settle in to any room because every room is housing extra stuff that can't be put into a room currently being remodeled. So we have to finish projects first, then unpack last. It's going to be a long summer getting all this done...
What Baby T has been up to this week:
- Baby measures over 16 inches long and weighs about 3.3 lbs and is heading into a growth spurt. She's at about half her birthweight now, so the next 9 weeks will be the big growing period.
- Callie can turn her head from side to side and her arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out
Pregnancy symptoms this week include:
- I'm feeling much more tired than I have previously. Fatigued, I guess. Not tired. But I think that might also have something to do with the amount of hours we've been putting into updating the house.
- It's much more difficult to get out of bed lately. And it doesn't help that my bed is on the floor, so I don't have any leverage when I need to stand up. Bryann is very helpful in the mornings and pushes me upwards. :-)
- The skin on my stomach and sides is drying out and flaking a little bit. I haven't kept up my lotioning regimen that I had before we moved, which is probably a bit part of it. Otherwise, still no stretch marks. Hoping to make it through without many! *Keeping fingers crossed*
What I miss/What I'm looking forward to:
- I miss the old house a little bit. I keep calling it "our house". :-) I feel like the new house is home already - I felt like it was "home" the minute I walked in - but I still miss the comfort of the old house where everything had a place, and we'd loved it for 3 years.
- I miss being able to sit down and have a beer after a long day of hard work. Luckily, Bryann is sensitive and doesn't rub it in my face TOO much, but I could really use a cold one at the end of these long, strenous days!
- I miss being able to lift things and be useful. I was pretty pathetic on moving day. I just directed traffic and carried a pillow or two. I wish I could contribute more.
- I'm looking forward to getting all moved in and setting up our new house as our home.
- Also looking forward to my baby shower next weekend!!! Wheeeee!!!!
