Just a Quickie . . . .
Welcome to the third trimester and all that it entails--the backaches, the headaches, the leg cramps, the loose joints that cause my pelvis to feel like there's a baseball bat stuck up in there. The swollen ankles, the overall puffiness, the lack of stomach-room for meals, it's all good. Really. This little critter is kicking and spinning and wiggling all night long, and he only stops when I get up and go about my day. I'm back to being tired again, but I know that I should rest now because in a few months I'll be so sleep deprived I'll wish to be pregnant again.
Have I mentioned that I have the most wonderful husband in the world? Last Saturday night, Meg had a sleepover at a friend's house so we had the night to ourselves. Ekrem took me to my favorite restaurant, Divan, and afterwards we went home where I had the most delicious ooey-gooey body oiled full rub down for over an hour. It just doesn't get any better than that! And I didn't even have to trade "special favors" for it, either! I have felt so much better since then, I hope he does it again soon!
Now I'm exhausted and I think ready to go to bed. I'll catch up some more later!
