MIA, again

I believe the only other time that I went this long without posting was at the beginning of my pregnancy, right after my kidney stones. Well, I don't have kidney stones, but at this point I am just trying to keep my head down and keep moving forward one day at a time. I am trying not to get ahead of myself. About three months after I had Joe I thought I wanted to have three kids. Hah, right now, not so much. You seem to really forget how miserable the end can be. I have tried not to gain as much weight this time thinking that might help with the uncomfortableness of it all, but I was wrong. Did I mention that I am miserable.
Actually, a lot has been going on around here. After selling the Jeep, we had an all new central air system installed in the house. Hip, hip hooray. Our house had been very cool without AC, but that was before the temp was hitting 90. We probably would have managed fine, but I am relishing in the fact that I don't need to find out. With this new system, and the new siding and windows from last summer, we are sitting pretty. Hopefully for quite some time.
Tonight Joe pulled out his I am Big Brother book. I think some parts of this baby thing are maybe starting to hit home. It's so hard to tell. But we talk about where the baby will sleep, a little about how the baby will eat, but I try to get Joe excited about helping me care for the baby, like bath time, changing diapers, feeding (at some point), reading and talking to the baby. Today I ordered their "big brother" and "lil sister" shirts. Yes, I know cliched, but oh so cute.
My appointments are now every two weeks. I think at the next appt. I am just going to tell her that I think I should just have the c-section. Knowing my stubborn children and body, I won't go into labor early, and by the time I am 39 weeks, we may be looking at a big baby, so why try. It still bothers me a little bit, because I here of the stories where these skinny, little petite girls shoot out these ten pound babies. Why won't my body just do what it is supposed to. It would be a whole hell of a lot cheaper. My insurance sucks (pregnancy potty mouth syndrome).
And as for David, over the past two days I think he has just tried to stay out of my way. I have been quite irritable and cranky. But I do have to say that he has really stepped up with taking care of Joe. And taking over the rituals that I always do, like breakfast, lunch, nap time, sometimes taking him on errands, so I can have some alone time. I do have to say that lately, over that past week and a half I have felt very selfish with my time, and wanting to be alone. I hope and think, that once the baby is here and I have my body back to myself, (other than nursing) I might not feel this way. Oh well. Hope to have some pictures for my next post.
