My puffy poem

Puff the pregnant woman
Was feeling rather round
As she cooked and cleaned
And everything else in between
A tiredness abound.

Puff the pregnant woman
Must eat beyond the norm
Pickles, peaches, cheese
Peanut butter please
Must have just one more.

Puff the pregnant woman
Had all that she could take
With a screaming child
To do lists wild
And chicken still to bake.

So puff the pregnant woman
Got ready for a nap
No more kids to watch
Or matching socks
Leave her alone or she might snap!

Getting closer

Went to the doctor. Baby Elliott is measuring at over 5 lbs already!! Doc says end of January based on measurements. Going to be another big boy.  I can't wait!!

I am soooo happy that I am off work for a week. I need the pj days and relaxation.  The cankles have begun. I hope everyone has a great Christmas!

Let the countdown begin...

So good news first:

Baby is doing good!! Doc says eight more weeks or less. All my paperwork is turned in at the hospital for registration.  Even my bags are packed!

Thanksgiving was wonderful I got to spend it with my sister nephew and mother in law.  All Christmas presents are made or purchased.  Christmas cards are addressed and ready to go in the mail.  Even most things are caught up at work. ..

Now for the compliants:

Still not resting much even with the sleeping pills, doc just upped my iron intake for the anemia, bring on the heart burn, and I have to see the chiropractor twice a week now... not many good evenings these days. 

My kiddos at work help lift my spirits as I give them all I have. Unfortunately I am only capable of half days. I am dreading cutting back even more.  Probably after the holidays.  I feel like I don't see them enough as it is. 

Noah and chad are amazing!! I am truly blessed.

Well, I'm off to take a nap... one day at a time!!
