I'm Still Here

I haven't updated in a few days- things are okay here, I'm almost 36 weeks pregnant so that is good. However, I'm ready and done! This being the 3rd baby, it seems everything hurts and I'm just so tired. I feel so lazy, trying to rest as much as I can.

Thankfully Marc is able to rearrange his schedule so either he can take Cerys to school and collect her or I can have the car to take her, which helps tremendously! Today was Marc's first day back to teaching through the gap year program, so although he was able to take her to school, I had to collect her, so me and Bailey had to walk. Normally, not a big deal. Today, it seemed like a huge task to me for many reasons. It was cold (35 degrees) and I didn't realize it was drizzly/rainy until I was about 4 houses away and I knew I did not have time to turn back to find the rain cover. So, Bailey got a little wet and me even more so. It normally takes about 13-15 minutes to walk but today I left 30 minutes ahead of time, and boy did I need every minute. I got to her school right as they were letting them out the door, and I was almost in tears from the pain/pressure - sorry for TMI- the pelvic pain....oh my word. I didn't have this with the other two, so I'm baffled this time, but it is painful! I gave in and decided we would ride the bus home and thankfully I had enough change.

In other news, I got my hair trimmed and colored today, and painted my toenails (no small task!) so I feel like the baby is allowed to make her appearance now! Ha. Bailey also had her first haircut- not much but just a little trimmed off the back so hopefully it will grow a little more even. She was so proud to finally get her "hair-cup."

A little more even in the back

And Mommy, with no make up on, my hair is not this light, it's more caramel color and you can see Bailey's little hair trim in front. Hehehe.

Yesterday I celebrated my 32nd birthday and it was a special day. We started the day off with muffins- that Marc bought- I was impressed he even thought about it. I like celebrating birthdays and with the girls and Marc I always make them a birthday muffin and use this cute little muffin stand that Marc thinks is funny...well you know, he did good. He bought us all muffins AND had mine on the muffin stand at my place at the table with a candle in it. :) What a guy. Then we proceeded to a meeting, in which my friend had made my Nannie's Banana Bread for me and it was YUMMY. So I had a pieces of that for a mid-morning snack. Then at lunch we celebrated by eating chocolate cake and ice cream- I told Marc I would make my own cake if he would take me to dinner- so we ate chocolate cake after lunch. (I'm pregnant, and will diet later!) Marc and the girls gave me a beautiful candle and a book that I have been wanting for a while called- The Ultimate Knitting Bible. For dinner, Marc arranged a babysitter and took me to TGI Friday's for my favorite- chicken quesadillas! It was a very nice day!
