Bloggings

So I'm sitting here on the couch at approximately 12:47AM wondering what I'm doing still wide awake. I really need to be sleeping, but for some crazy insane reason I'm pretty much wide awake - which doesn't make any sense at all because though we didn't get up until around 10ish (Stephen's day off) I normally would still be super tired by the end of the day with no nap. So why am I still awake?

Its ok I guess that I'm not sleeping because I can sleep until whenever I feel like getting up tomorrow, and unless the baby is born, that will be ok! But, I doubt that will happen.

The only reason I can think of that I'm still awake is that I have heartburn right now and its super annoying. :-( REALLY annoying. Drinking water didn't help. A grape popsicle didn't help either. Or a bowl of cereal a lot earlier tonight. Or sitting up in bed reading for a while. Nada. Stephen would tell me to eat a couple rolaids, well, yeah, I should, but I don't like them.

According to my midwife today I'm having good signs of progression, but I didn't have her check me - what for? I know he'll come sometime, and it won't help to know whether I'm doing really well, or not. If I was progressing really good then I might expect that he'd come early (before Wednesday), otherwise I can expect him to be late. :-P She also continues to say that he's not a big or chunky baby, but fairly long. I can attest to him having knees! And why does he always want to be awake when I'm trying to sleep? "Let's jump on mommy's bladder!! And figure out all sorts of new stretches!!" Gee, thanks little guy.

Well, one good thing. Today was my little brother's 17th birthday and Daniel wasn't born today - so that's good! Not that it would be the end of the world, but I think its nice for everybody to have their own birthday's. Now, Daniel better not be born May 4th either - because we have 3-4 people born that day already. My sister, Stephen's brother, my first cousin, and it seems like somebody else too.

Meanwhile, it seems crazy that David is 17 already. Seems just yesterday, or the day before that he was born. Watching my little nephews grow up, it reminds me a lot of David and how cute he was at their age. Now he's grown up, mature, and about to be an Uncle. Heehee Happy Birthday, David! Actually, now its happy belated birthday since its actually tomorrow...instead of today....or something? He's also a lot taller than me now and this was just from a year ago.



*Sigh* Little monster man inside has decided to wake up - just when I was thinking about going back to bed. hehe He must be happy to roll around - he can still move around a good bit back and forth. Even at my appointment he was on one side, and then flipped to the other.

So goodnight for now!
