Exhausted!

I am so exhausted, I think this little life inside of me is sucking every ounce of energy I have. I am not tired of pregnancy, pregnancy is just making me tired. Even though I have been sleepy I still do a lot that I probably shouldn't. I am on my feet a lot even when I think my body needs a rest. It is hard though- the tile project is done, except for the base boards. It looks very nice and it is worth it now, at the time I thought I was going to lose my mind, I think Eric was scared for his life at one point, haha. So my house is starting to look more livable now and the nesting instinct has kicked in. I was worried I wasn't going to get it there for a while. haha. I have been cleaning like a mad woman. My latest addiction are the space saver bags, what a great thing for nesting gals! It organizes and makes so much more room once all the blankets, quilts, and extra bedding is vacuum sealed and tucked under the bed, it is so fun! I am going to get the ones for our coats to hang in the closet too. Anyway, my body is so sore from all the activity I probably shouldn't be doing. Eric would totally clean for me, but I havn't really seen him in a few days with overtime and school and clinicals, the last thing I am going to do is complain to him because then he would clean on top of everything else he is doing. So I am trying to do it all myself, until today, my mom came and cleaned our new tile with vinegar and water with a rag. So glad I didn't have to bend over and do that!!! I don't think I would get back up I am so sore. So that was a very nice help! I think I can do stuff until I do then the next day I totally regret it. I wake up feeling like I've aged 50 years. I have cut back on going to the gym so much and exercising all the time. The fear of pre-term labor kinda scares me a little and I know I have been overdoing it. I realize that a couple more pounds is way better than me pushing it. I am trying to let go of my obsessive fear of gaining too much weight. And Eric is really great, so don't think he makes me feel bad, he tells me all the time to eat more (I eat, I am not and never will be a person that doesn't eat-I mean come on! haha.) and not overdo it, this is totally my own obsession. Eric says only nice things, he knows better! haha.

Carson continues to be very active! And the belly continues to grow bigger and bigger, I totally stink at taking belly shots. This tile project in the middle of my nesting craze has done a number on me, the "pregnancy brain damage" as I call it can get bad at times, just ask Eric.

Oh and I have just two months to go!!! Eric started his last quarter before summer break and it is like our countdown now. You see Carson's due date is around Eric's finals, so as much as he dreads each class I tell him each class is closer to when we meet our son! We are SO thankful that it worked out that Eric will be off of school for summer with Carson and I. That will be so nice! I couldn't imagine my due date being in the middle of a school quarter for him, he can actually enjoy having a baby instead of stressing about it. Eric already talked with his teacher and will finish up a week or so earlier so when the little man comes he won't be stressing about school. That has eased some of his stress for sure.

Well that is pretty much it, just a lot of re-organizing before my shower so I have a place for things to go and I won't be so overwhelmed with organizing all of it. Oh I can't wait to see all the cute baby things for our very own baby!!! : ) I still have to pinch myself sometimes, we really are going to have a baby soon of our own.
