14 weeks 5 days

Happy Monday...

just wanted to post a quick update - we have our monthly appointment today at 3:00 with the midwife. Not sure what to expect but I have a few questions and want to discuss in detail more this pain in my back. I know a major part of it is that when I have good days, I tend to over do everything...like on Saturday, when I was feeling good, I spent much of the day cleaning and doing laundry...which meant I really didn't stop moving very much...which then meant that my back hurt yesterday - but in true "me" fashion...I just kept going. I was in a lot of pain last night when I went grocery shopping, and then this morning, I am finding that I am pretty uncomfortable...not so much in pain...but not really loving life either. I am not going to complain though - there was a time that was much worse and I would rather not relive that.

I am finding that I have an even lower tolerance for people than I normally do...which doesn't really do my any favors as I typically don't have a lot of patience. Things irritate me a lot quicker and I feel like I have been expressing my opinions to people regardless of if they want it or not. I need to stop myself more often and remind myself that people probably don't want to hear what I have to say...oh well - I can always blame it on the cockeye.

one of my friends just got her belly pictures back from their maternity photo shoot - they are absolutely beautiful and she is simply glowing. I can't wait to do ours...I always said that I would never do a maternity shoot - but now that I am at this point in my life...and going through this amazing experience...I want something to capture that. I think we will do them at around 30ish weeks...which means we are looking at end of April or early May. We have a friend who is a photographer that does a lot of work for the agency...and he is amazing. I am hoping that he will want to do these. Better keep up my workout schedule...the belly is ok to show off - but i want to make sure my arms don't get too much bigger.

My best friend and college roommate comes out to visit on Thursday...I am so excited! This will be the first time she has seen the house, and met the dogs...and I am in serious need of rissy-roo time! Big shout out to her AMAZING hubby for getting her one of the most unique and wonderful Christmas gifts ever...a trip to come see me! YOU ROCK JOE!

so much for a short update - oh well - I guess I had more to say than I thought. I am sure I will post again after our appointment.
