Back aches, pain here, pain there

I know a blog was originally intended for a sort of message board, but I have found it to be a great place for pictures mostly. Tonight I speak. Eh-hem...do I really have 2 1/2 more months? Really? I want my body to feel normal again! I want my body back! I really cannot complain too much being that my pregnancy could have been A LOT worse, but sometimes a girl needs to vent. How do I feel? Pregnant. Sleeping is not fun and unfortunately Jason has been a witness to this. I don't sleep well; he doesn't sleep well. It took me forever to feel comfortable last night AND Isabella was having a party in my belly. I fell asleep eventually only to be struck awake with leg cramps. I was moaning so bad that Jason woke up and had to help me stretch my legs and massaged my calves. Those are the worst...and it really bites becuase you never know when they're going to attack! I then had to go take a sugar test this morning. I wanted to be there early so I could eat something for breakfast, but the horrible night didn't help me wake up this morning in good time. And then I find out it takes an hour :( So, I have blood taken, drink something that tastes like Sunkist (which I hate by the way), and then I go to my car for an hour. I then go back upstairs and have blood taken again. Fun. I finally ate around 12:45.

So, there's that...and there's the sound of my heavy breathing just walking around the house and the feeling that I'm carrying a huge rock right below my chest. And I say right below my chest because as of late Isabella has been pressing on my ribs and is getting all up in my business! Where else can she go? Simma' down now!

I know there are some of you mothers out there reading this and think, seriously get over it, but I'm just having a moment. So, let me roll with it!

Last, but not least, my wedding band no longer fits :(

Tonight we reunited with some old friends from church that used to be in our bible study. BABIES EVERYWHERE! It was so nice to see them and meet the kiddos. And I was happy to have so many new mommies around! You can always vent to them and get some good advice! You can check out their blogs (I've added another section with some links) to the left. And yea, some of them are stay-at-home moms! I always have my ears open for word of other stay-at-home moms for Isabella and I to hang out with! Anyway, seeing all the cute babies makes me want mine here..now!

Speaking of baby here...now, I had a dream that Jason and I delivered the baby ourselves, but we didn't panic because in my dream it was normal. Sure. I remember saying to Jason, "we should probably put her back in." Sure. And then, I saw her face! It seemed so real. I could see every detail. She looked like mine so that was good...no afros. She had big, brown eyes with long lashes. Her skin was a little lighter than mine, but still olive, and her hair was light brown with curls. She had cute little lips which had to be from Jason! I remember smiling at her and she kept smiling back. After seeing her, I thought she is not going back in! Weird.

With that face in my head now, my complaints seem so stupid, but I've been attacked by a body snatcher, what do you expect?

Sandra,

I promise it gets better! It will be well worth it in the end. However, the sleep does not get better sorry to say, but I think it gets you ready for getting up in the middle of the night when the baby comes! We really want to see you guys soon. We will have to get together when Nate and I get back from Michigan! We will meet for dinner and let you pick!

Everybody vents. People may not admit it, but a girl needs to vent. Your body is going through a major change and its tough, but it will be worth it. I hear ya girl. Keep on keepin' on.
