Saturday...in the house

I hate to admit it, but today I am really tired of being pregnant! It feels selfish, but I want my body back. I want to sleep on my tummy, be able to get out of bed effortlessly, sleep through the night, walk normal, wear normal clothes, be at a normal weight, sit on the toilet in the middle of the night without wanting to fall asleep there…and many other things...

However, I feel like I was mostly productive this afternoon being in the house. I napped off and on today (completely necessary), washed the baby's clothes, and started a big project I have been wanting to complete for a long time! I purchased photo albums off of ebay and decided to chronicle photos I have collected my entire life. I ended up sitting at the kitchen table for hours sorting photos by event. The events span my entire life - no kidding. Talk about memory lane. I cried a little and laughed allot. I had forgotten some of the adventures I've taken over the years. How fun to re-live them.

I can't wait to finish my project. Again, it makes me feel accomplished and at least in control of a little something. Having all of these photos in a big plastic tub bothered me...now, I can go through them with our little girl and share with her some of the adventures I had before she came into my life.

Next big project...download the rest of my CD's...and download music on iPod for hospital stay.

Tomorrow, I am going to treat myself to a pedi/mani. Can't wait!
