30 Weeks

Finally in the 30's for this pregnancy. Now it feels like time is really going to fly by - especially with everything that we have coming up in May (Hazel's birthday, Chris & Danielle's wedding in Carmel, Marshall's Half Marathon and our annual Memorial Day river rafting/camping trip). Daily life has certainly become a lot more uncomfortable for me and with the added bonus of our temps creeping into the high 90's, I certainly feel a lot slower and worn out lately. I'm looking forward to May going by quickly with all the fun stuff and then a much more laid back June just hanging out with our family of four before we turn into a quintet.

I spent most of my free time here in April organizing absolutely EVERYTHING in our house and either selling/donating/trashing anything that was just taking up space. It has been so nice to get this stuff done now as I know it will be too hard later on.

Yesterday I had such a nice and relaxing afternoon getting a pedicure, prenatal massage and lunch to myself while Marshall stayed home with the kids. It was such a great way to start week 30 and now I just have the finish line in sight. My next OB appointment is tomorrow morning and I am really really keeping my fingers crossed for normal blood pressure at this appointment. I think that a second elevated reading will start to trigger some alarms for them, so I plan on arriving there early and doing some deep breathing in the waiting room :)
