General Update

Not much to report lately. I've had 2 doctors appointments in the last month and they went well. The first one was ridiculous...I waited 2 hours to see the doctor and she literally spent 5 minutes with me. That was a bummer. The last appointment was last Thursday and it went much better. They were actually running on time and I was in and out quickly. I got to hear the baby's heartbeat again which was nice. I go back in 3 weeks and will have a diabetes test which involves drinking a bottle of sugary stuff and then getting blood taken and the obligatory peeing in a cup. Fun.

I've been feeling the baby move more and more. I think. It could just be digestion, but I'm pretty sure it's the baby. On Sunday night I woke up at 2:30am and couldn't go back to sleep. Luckily I worked from home yesterday and was able to take a cat nap in the middle of the day. It's getting increasingly more difficult to get comfortable at night. I am not supposed to sleep on my back, but with these broad shoulders it gets pretty uncomfortable on my side for hours and hours. I keep waking up on my back and/or tossing and turning all night. Only 4 more months...

4th of July was great. We had a bbq and a bunch of friends over. Jeff ended the night with some SERIOUS fireworks in the back yard. I thought for sure we'd get hate mail from the neighbors, but it all worked out. Poor Trixie was so traumatized that she hid in the shower. It took her a good hour to recover. Daphne and her little pea brain were unphased.

Tomorrow begins the landscaping project for the front yard and driveway. I took some "before" shots over the weekend. Once we get the "after" shots we'll post all of those. I also need to post pictures of the house and nursery for Mom. Lots to do...
