Insomnia?

Well, here it is, 5 am, and I am awake and have been since 4am. Hmmf. This has been happening more and more lately the past couple of weeks. It is so odd for me because I am a hard sleeper and RARELY have ANY trouble sleeping in the least. If you have ever even met me you probably know that I heart my sleep....a lot. When I was working full time my goal was to get between 9-10 hours of sleep a night, and since I've been pregnant, I sleep more like 10-11 a night. I know. You just judged me. It's a lot of sleep so I would judge me too. But honestly, I don't really care, because I have been loving every minute of all the sleep because I know that is about to change....drastically. And maybe that is the reason I am ok with the insomnia lately because I know it is God's way of preparing me for all those sleepless nights. I actually appreciate it! Thanks God! You always know how to prepare us for big events coming up:).

So anyways, tomorrow I am 26 weeks! I am updating my bump picture because I feel like it has really come along these past 2 weeks and I'm so proud of it! Good job little bump! If you'll notice in the pic, it has become a lot more "bump-like" in the past 2 weeks. More round and pronounced. And for the first time, I have actually begun to feel more comfortable wearing tight shirts that hug the belly. See the progress??

We are getting there, right?? Holla!

Ok, so, things that are getting harder for me to do lately:

1) Bend over

2) Tie my shoes

3) Work out

4) Sit down/stand up frequently

5) Eat dinner without getting indigestion/stomach ache

6) Sleep through the night, apparently

7) Hide da bump!

8) Not buy everything I see for the nursery

9) Sleep on my stomach

10) Not cry at anything sentimental

11) Sit for long periods of time with out SOMETHING aching (upper back, lower back, sides, ligaments, etc.)

Though these things are getting harder, I still feel like I cannot complain about my pregnancy! It has been an overall enjoyable experience with little trouble. I would say that I recommend it! S0, all of my married friends out there (you know who you are)....c'mon go for it!!!! It will be fun, I swear:). Haha just kidding...mostly.

I have a feeling we will soon be making lots of progress on the nursery, so I'll be sure to update. As for now, the only thing I've done in there, besides make a bunch of purchases, is put up paint samples. PROGRESS! Haha, much to do before April 1st! So much excitement ahead of us!
