Welcome to my life. It's crazy, filled with love, and often a bit messy. I wouldn't have it any other way.

34 Weeks


Everything seems to be happening so quickly. Jon and I can hardly believe that Little Limer could be joining our family in 4-8 weeks. I'm thinking it's going to be closer to 8, but it doesn't hurt to be prepared in case it's 4. I'm continuing to feel pretty good. I can't really complain, especially when I've heard what other people are going through at this point. It may be possible that Limer has dropped, but I have a hard time telling because he was a bit low to start with. He seems to be pressing on my bladder a little more than usual though. The bathroom has become a dear friend of mine. At least I'm getting exercise by walking to the bathroom every 30 minutes or so (if I'm lucky). I'm sure I could help myself out by not drinking so much water, but I can't help it.
My nesting instinct continues to rear its head every once in a while, but I'm having a hard time figuring out what to do with everything. Jon and I still need to clean out the closet in the office and figure out where all that stuff will go. Luckily we got an estimate on fixing the basement this week, so hopefully we will be able to get that done soon and safely store some stuff down there.
Jon and I also got rid of the Scion this week. My dad found us a new (used) car so that payments are much less. It's pretty nice and it's great that we'll be paying so much less a month. Way to go Dad! We also spent that evening (or one soon after) going through all the payments we have to make each month and deciding how we're going to cut everything down so that I can stay home. I'll still have some income from helping my dad and one of the therapists that I've met through my current job, but it definitely won't be the same. We managed to cut everything down quite a bit and we still have some things we can adjust if needed. I'm holding onto tv for now, but that may have to go soon. I'm feeling really good about staying home now and our financial position. It'll definitely be tough, but I think it'll be worth it.
