I can't believe how quickly the summer is going by. I think this must be the craziest, most hectic, mega-stressful summer in my entire life. Leave it to me to pack eight million life chages into a few months! So here's the update:
The New House: It can be summed up by saying...Will we ever live there? We have now been living with my in-laws for over a month...and there's really no end in sight. The house was supposed to be done on 7/15....then 8/1....now its 8/29. I keep telling myself that someday...just someday....I actually may sleep in my own bed again, at a house I can call my own. I know I'm being a little over dramatic, but work with me...I'm pregnant.
Speaking of Which: I am turning the corner into my 3rd and final trimester! Lilly is kicking like nobody's business and doing great. I feel wonderful...just really hot! Whoever thought being prego in the summer would be fun is nuts! I should buy stock in Degree deoderant...it's the only thing getting me through :) I go to the doctor tomorrow for my glucose test...hoping all is well there. I'm hoping its good, as I've done much better trying not to eat for eight like I did with Jacob! We are still on track for a C-Section the last week of October (wanna take bets on whether we'll bring the baby home to OUR house or the in-laws??? I don't even want to think about it)
The Fam: Josh and Jacob are having a fun filled summer. Much of Josh's time is spent at the new house trying to get things moving, and Jacob is laughing, taking and growing up way too fast. He's doing cannon-balls off of the diving board into the pool next door and almost potty-trained. I'm very proud. I can't believe how big he is and how grown up he is. Yesterday he came up and put his hand on my belly and said "Lilly inside momma's tummy? Come out when done growing?" Who teaches a kid that? I died laughing!
Overall I really shouldn't complain about things....we are blessed beyond belief. I will just be happy when I can leisurely look back on these days and laugh.
