Slacker of the year here!
I know I haven’t been around much, but motivation has been lacking
during this pregnancy. All around! I can’t lie about that. One thing I will say, though is that I feel
fully prepared to bring this baby into the world 3 weeks from today (granted
all goes as planned). I have a scheduled
cesarean planned and I’m very excited to meet my little dude! My husband is sometimes beside himself with excitement! Others may not be able to tell it from the
outside, but I know him well enough to know he’s doing cartwheels on the
inside! And our oldest little dude is at
a-whole-nother level of excitement! He
has been asking me probably every other day, “When is my brother going to be
boring (“born” in his language)??” He’s
still kissing my belly and telling the baby how much he loves him. I love that little guy more than words can
describe! He’s going to be the best big
brother EVER!!! Anyhow… So this post is what I like to call a random
ramble! I have several topics. I hope I don’t lose you all!
I honestly didn’t really nest this time the way I thought I
would. I nested like a mad woman with my
1st pregnancy. Shampooed
carpets like twice a month and vacuumed 3 times a week, dusted, organized
EVERYTHING over and over! It was
insanity! This time, I kinda just want
to sleep ALL. The. Time.
It’s frustrating because I can think of things to do, I just don’t have
the energy or motivation to do them.
Motivation… Today’s theme! Or lack thereof! Really hoping that after having this baby and
recovering, my motivation returns to me.
I may have to get out and find it and kick its ass for leaving! Maybe it won’t go away anymore after
that! Ugh!
Next I’d like to talk about what I look forward to most
after giving birth and recovering! For
starters, I’m not trying to rush this beautiful time I’m flowing though. I am enjoying the journey! It’s a rough one at times, but I’m taking
things day by day and doing well, for the most part. But after almost 9 months of all of this, I
am looking forward to a few things!
Number 1… I look forward to having
my body to myself again. Don’t get me
wrong, I LOVE LOVE LOVE every little kick, nudge, head butt (mostly to the
bladder at this point! Ha!) and big
swish I feel, I just look forward to being able to get up off the couch or out
of bed without so much WORK! And next,
let’s be 100% real here, people.. The
end of pregnancy is not exactly conducive for certain activities with your
loved one who got you into this situation to begin with. I MISS SEX!
My husband is truly a trooper at this point, because it ain’t happening
often and he hasn't complained not one peep! Ok maybe there were a couple peeps of
complaint, but the man is only human! We
are working through it, though! Lastly, I
look forward to hitting the gym again! I
daydream about my gym classes more and more often lately! I’m thinking January will be a good time for
that to start back up again! Can’t
WAIT!!! I plan to write about my big
workout plans sometime within the next few months here, so be on the lookout
for that entry!
This concludes the plethora of topics I chose to share with
you all today! I hope it wasn’t too
manic for you! I tend to be that way at
times! *winks* I do
want to thank anyone who has taken the time to read my blog! You rock and I appreciate your support in
this venture more than you know! Good
day, all! I am now off to nap!
