Grandma

Today we are 41 Days Pregnant :( ~~ [6 days to go by original due date]

No Sleep:
I barely slept last night, I was tossing and turning the whole time. Finally got some shut eye only to be woken up by Mimi's morning ritual of Moans & Groans. Couldn't fall back asleep but laid around in bed for a while anyway. I finally gave up at 8am and got up.

My Morning with Grandma:
I made a nice pot of coffee and set up breakfast (cereal + lots of fresh fruit). I can't tell you how delicious Honey Bunches of Oats tastes with some fresh banana, strawberry & blueberry tossed in!! I finally finished up the Thank You cards. I did some dishes. Then we took a nice long walk all the way down Union Tpke to the Post Office by the Temple. She bought a bunch of stamps and we mailed out all the Thank You Cards finally (minus 4 I didn't have addresses for lol)! :) We stopped at the Kosher Restaurant to grab a menu for reference and at Tommy's Deli to grab Steph a sprite (her stomach was still very upset today). We went into Barns & Nobles and Grandma bought me a baby book :) "What To Expect the First Year". Just as we started walking back to the house it started to rain and hasn't stopped all day since!

Afternoon:
I set up some lunch for us: Tuna, Egg-salad, Hard-boiled eggs, Pickles, and we made sandwiches (I was good and had whole-wheat bread). Grandma accidentally spilled 1/2 a pitcher of water all over the table/floor LoL and turns to me and says "your turn"! Steph was really nice & cleaned up the mess so we could eat :D! The rest of the afternoon saw us reading our respective books on the back-room couch. I ended up passing out in bed for a good 2hr nap. Then dinner (white fried rice) YUM. Unfortunatly because of the weather I didn't go swimming (didn't want to get sick) and we couldn't take a walk either. :(

Nesting:
I started cleaning after dinner. First it was the meat dishes. Then cleaned out the sink. Then the counter tops. Then I scrubbed the crap out of the stove. Then I swept the Kitchen floor. Then I got out the Murphy's Wood Cleaner and cleaned every piece of cabinetry in that kitchen (we have a lot) top to bottom, inside & out. I cleaned the Dinning Room Table. Straightened up the Breakfast Bar. And the whole time Grandma was standing there watching me and shaking her head. Mom & Dad were both laughing at me x_x that I am "Nesting".

My Other Half:
I called Erik around 930P for our evening chat :) He informed me that he is going to visit, but I won't say when because he wants it to be a surprise :D lol! The new truck is working out well for him which makes me very happy!

Right Now:
I went to bed over an hour ago. Unfortunately I can't sleep. I can't even lay still. I'm WIDE awake and it's taking all my concentration to stay in the bedroom and not go back to cleaning! Because I'm dying to go back to it O_O. As far as a Baby Update goes, we had quite a bit of action last night & most of the day today; back pain & cramping. He's finally moving around (now @ 115A). And I've been getting occasional contractions/BH but nothing Regular (of course) x_X''.

The Plan:
Tomorrow I'm supposed to get up at 630A. No breakfast for me. Leaving the house between 7 - 730A. I have a Doctors Appointment for 9am but I want to get there around 8A again because I was in and out so fast last week! :) Grandma wants to come with me so that should be interesting. Erik thinks they are going to Induce me, I'm not so hopeful x_x, I guess we'll find out tomorrow! Then (of course) I'm planning to hit the Diner :D. Mimi & Steph are going to a movie at some point and I have to pick them up after and drop Mimi @ Choir Practice at 330P at the Temple. Then cook dinner since it's Dad's late night. Hmm busy day ahead!
