Sunday whining!

Hi Joey,
Not a ton to share since our 25 week appointment but I was updating your brother's blog so figured I would pop over.  You are still moving up a storm - I just can't remember Elijah moving so much.  I wish you would move up a bit more so I would quit taking so many shots to my bladder  :)

I am starting to move into that whiney stage.  I am not sleeping well - on Friday morning, I was up at 3:30 and didn't go back to sleep until 10 am.  I took the day off work and figured I would sleep all day but I only got 2 hours in.  Sleep is hard to come by and that makes life tough because I know that when you get here, it will be harder to come by!

I am also starting to get more aches and pains.  My back is really hurting and my hips are hurting.  I am not sure if it is you or just being out of shape/overweight.  But, either way, it is a major inconvenience  :)

I was having a lot of pain in my hands and feet from retaining water but that seems to have cleared up.  I cut back on my sunflower seed addiction and so the pressure went down a bit.

I had acupuncture on Friday and I thought of you the whole time.  You were kicking up a storm so I went to that happy place in my mind where we are going to the hospital to have you.  I hope things can be different than with Elijah - I hope you are in there cooking longer, I hope we are scheduled so we aren't exhausted and I hope I can immediately spend more time with you.  Come what may, I can't wait to meet you and love you up.

I guess I only have one more thing to tell you.  Daddy and I are going to look at swing sets today for you & Elijah.  I am trying to talk him into getting a really nice one because you guys will have a lot of years to use it.  But, it does appear that daddy & me don't have the same philosophy when it comes to spending money on our "money grubbing" children  :)  I hope I win!

Well, Joey, keep on kicking on in there!  I love to feel you moving all around and daddy has felt you a few times too.  Can't wait to see you again in 2 weeks or so.
