36 Weeks and Counting

Sorry for the lapse in updating!

Things seems to be ship-shape around our house again...i think everyone is all better from the sickies!

the only lame-o is me! I'm 36 weeks pregnant today.... i'm really trying to remind myself that i am very lucky and blessed and glass is half full, but i am having a hard time....i have no "ummmph"...I'm exhausted to the point of sick to my stomach most nights...I am a lump on a bump..I struggle to make it through the work day and then feel like I have nothing to give to my poor hubby or my son....I really need to suck it up, but I just am not feeling like myself....I don't remember feeling this crappy at this point with Evan, but then again, I took naps EVERY day after work and didn't have an Evan to worry about at that time....I don't know....Then, I'm reminded of my grandma 'Gram', who was on her roof, shingling, at 9 months pregnant....that's how I should be! That's the superhero I should feel like....it must be in my genetics somewhere......and yet, not so much.

In any case, poor Adam listens to me whine daily/nightly...Evan has to hear, "mommy's tired...or mommy can't, she has a baby in her belly"....so, say a little prayer that I might be more appreciative of all I do have in my life! AND, don't get me wrong, I'm excited for the newest addition and I know how blessed we are to have had a problem-free pregnancy, I just feel like I don't have the pep in my step I need.....

So, say a prayer, if not for me, for Adam and Evan, for patience to make it through these last few weeks with a dud of a wife/momma......
Thanks ya'll....have a good weekend!
