So I finally reached the 36 week mark (for pregnancy), and you mothers know this is the point when you're totally over the pregnancy thing. All you want is to get this parasite out! Now calm yourselves, I'm joking. I'm looking forward to meeting this little guy, I'm just no longer interested in carrying him in my womb (he feels like a monster!). I think the most annoying thing about the last trimester is not the fact you can't even roll over in bed or sleep (now I can thanks to ambien), it's the total lack of energy. I'm a person who is "go go go" all the time and having NO energy is just irritating. I like to have a project going around the house at all times. It might be something like working out in the yard, redecorating a room, or just re-painting a room. But lately I've been running on fumes for energy.
With all this being said, I am totally grateful I'm able to have children. I never realized there were so many couples who struggled to have children. I see this more and more often and it completely breaks my heart. Just seems like too many deserving couples have there dreams shattered over and over, which has caused me to question our heavenly father's mysterious ways once or twice. Nevertheless, he knows what he's doing and one day we'll all understand why.
I have struggled on deciding on whether I want to be induced or wait on the baby to decide to come. I keep going back and forth about it. I think the only reason I really want to be induced is the distance. See, Trent and I moved down to Sharpsburg, GA. This is about 45 minutes from the hospital with absolutely no traffic. If it happens to be rush hour, who knows. So I'm thinking the safest thing would be a scheduled induction. It will only be 3 days before the baby's due date.
We bought a house in Sharpsburg, Ga and moved in June 7th. We have been insanely busy fixing up the house to our liking. It's always a pain to redecorate a new place. It seems like it takes forever to find the perfect decor to "fit the space". But we love having all the space and 5 bedrooms. When you have kids, you have enough toys and stuff to fill an entire house. So space is KEY. Calvin also loves all the space and spends most his time exploring and going on long stroller rides through our subdivision.
I must say this child absolutely cracks me up. He is just my entire PRIDE AND JOY. I'm so impressed with his "spunky" little personality and all his adorable quirks. He can make me smile no matter how bad my day was. Some people find having a child as a drag, I say take a good look at yourself my friend. Calvin has brought the most happiness I have ever experience in all my life. I couldn't imagine life without him. I just can't wait to meet this next little guy :)
