A Little Bit of Everything

Things on my mind:

The weather.

Tom's shooling.

Our apartment.

The baby.

Dinner.

"What to Expect When You're Expecting" - The movie.

Life.

Let's start with the weather. 

It's finally going to start feeling like spring.

Today was a high of 40 degrees. Tomorrow's high is 60 - and sunny.

The weekend is forecasting 70s.

Finally.

I love spring.

I love watching the world come to life again.

Animals come back out.

People come back out.

The sun comes back out.

Everything turns green and blue and pink and all sorts of beautiful.

The world comes alive. 

Thomas' schooling.

It's almost done.

Thank. Goodness.

Three weeks from tomorrow is his last day.

THREE WEEKS.

Then these weeks can be over.

No more Monday through Fridays of me home alone.

We actually get to eat dinner together every night.

We get to talk about each other's days in person instead of over texts. 

We get to SEE each other. 

I am so excited.

There are no words to describe it.

THEN! He gets to get a big-boy job too!

He gets to help me bring in the dough!

And our finances will be a little looser, and our savings will grow at a faster rate.

I'm excited for that part!

Our apartment.

We're looking to upgrade to a two bedroom.

Either that our start house shopping.

And by house shopping I mean townhouse.

We'll be looking mostly at foreclosure and short sales.

But it all depends on where Thomas ends up for work in a month or so. 

The baby.

Oh goodness, the baby.

I think about it always.

And yet, it still doesn't feel real sometimes. 

I have another appointment tomorrow, and can't wait to hear the little peanut's heartbeat again! It's been too long!

I am also aching to start feeling it move. 

I am so anxious for that day!

Three weeks from Friday we'll be finding out if it's a boy or a girl!

We both would like a boy first (to protect his little sisters) but we both think it's going to be a girl. Mostly because I can't eat enough sugar. 

Biggest cravings so far:

Strawberry milkshakes & Ice Cream

Chocolate covered raisins

Snickers

Vanilla Oreos

I'm eating dinner right now.

Yummy chicken drummies. 

While watching "What to Expect When You're Expecting" (a hilarious movie ya'll should see). And enjoying a night of relaxation.

Laundry is folded. 

Apartment vaccuumed. 

Dishwasher running.

Pots and pans soaking from dinner.

I have a night where I can relax and breathe for the first time in too many weeks (work's been crazy lately - so much, actually, that my wonderful husband surprised me with a massage at a spa last Saturday!).

And it's rather nice to relax a little.

Happy Wednesday.
