so I am noticing lately that I am tired in the evenings and prone to emotional tears at the drop of a hat.  I try to stay as busy as i can so that I am not just sitting on the couch all the time.  I hope things will continue to go well with the pregnancy.  I think a part of me is getting nervous with it being 3rd trimester and the glucose test coming up.  So many things we need to get done still and I can not do alot of them.  I only hope Andy does not take on more than he can do.  I am sure he will be fine and all will get done.  Just need to stay calm and positive.  ok.  this has helped a little and now am feeling scattered so will go before i start to ramble on and on and on and on….hehe

So it hit me today that my due date is August 21 (three months from today),  I can not believe how fast the time as flown by since December.  It seems that I am more active than ever right now, mostly due to the weather.  I hope I can keep this energy for a bit longer.  I am loving my walks and working in the yard.  Spring time is always the time of year when I get energized.  I would have to say that so far my pregnancy has been a very easy one.  No major complications, I have not missed any work due to morning sickness either, so I figure that is a good thing.   (side note…I was sitting outside enjoying the evening and had to come in cuz the mosquitos were eating me alive….only downside to nice weather)  I have been feeling a lot more movement from our little one these days, but have not noticed a specific pattern yet.  For awhile there I thought I was never going to feel it, so when I did I was happy and able to put that worry behind me.  I have not been acting quite the way I expected during this pregnancy, I expected  little bit more emotional and paranoid, but I think I have been doing pretty good in those areas.  I do notice that at work I am more easily agitated by my boss, I just try to take some deep breaths and get past it, sometimes even go for a walk.  I would not want to give him any reason to replace me, at least not at this time.  Anyway, I digress a bit.

I am getting a bit nervous about what kind of parents we will be and how our lives will change and how we adapt to those changes.  I wonder if all parents to be go thru this same fear.  I can only imagine so.  Andy and i will be taking some classes in June, one dealing with childbirth, another dealing with childcare and then I will be taking a breastfeeding class.  I am very much hoping that we will be able to breastfeed for a bit, even with me going back to work.  but we shall see.  Ok, well Minos is asking for attention, so will go for now.
