Sorry to have been so bad about blogging for the past couple of weeks! Work has been so busy and T has had the camera with him at school, so no new pics. He will bring it home in the next few days and I can post another picture of how much I have grown! I feel great, which has been nice. Still running and enjoying it. My
sternum is sore from growing. I told T the other day that I felt like someone had done chest compressions on me. He asked if anyone had ever done chest compressions on me. I said no, but I imagine this is what you would feel like after CPR. He laughed.
I have been totally overtaken by wanting to get the nursery ready. I hardly remember that I am still in graduate school. I feel pretty dingy and distracted. It is nice to be able to blame some of that on pregnancy! (Although I'm not totally convinced) :)
To catch up a bit, here are the highlights for the past couple of weeks:
2/14 - T made an AWESOME dinner of steak and
gnocchi with fresh pesto sauce. Yum. Two heated games of "Ticket to Ride" our favorite new game. Score: 1 game each. Rematch tonight.
2/11 - Experienced what seemed like exponential growth in my belly. Would like to attribute it to baby's growth
spurt, but not holding my breath.
2/9 - Bought an awesome antique oak dresser for the baby's room from a serious VA redneck named Butch. And, he had no front teeth. He was SO nice. It was really quite an experience.
2/8 - Steve and Cami found out they are having a baby boy! (The first Warner boy.) We are unbelievably excited about it. The streak has ended! HOORAY!!
2/7 - Got plane tickets to Austin, TX for spring break to go check out the dental market as a possible landing spot for after dental school.
2/4 - Fell walking up three little stairs in my house. It hurt. I managed to not spill my glass bottle of orange Crush, but my hands and shins didn't fare as well. No piano lessons this week as a result. I have a feeling it was the first of many clumsy falls over the next few months. As my
Grammy would say, "I'm just getting used to my new size."
2/3 - Crib was delivered; we put it together. Love it.
All of February - REALLY COLD IN VIRGINIA! Running in the cold has been the pits. I've never been so tempted to give it up!! That blasted 10K I signed up to run in March is keeping me going. I am so ready for Spring...
1/31 - First piano lesson of my life. I have always wanted to play the piano. My dream church calling is primary pianist. No prep, no talking, no babysitting, just play. No time like the present to learn! P.S. I'm really terrible.
Life is good in VA!
