Had a dr appt this week. Can't believe I am 21 weeks. Everything looks really good. This baby sure is different that Carson. Carson would always run from the doppler when they would try and find his heart beat that I had to have an ultrasound at almost every visit cause that was the only way they could measure it good. Well..."she" is very very different. She lays very still and they are able to find her within about 2 minutes and get her heartbeat. Fortunately, my blood pressure has stabilized and after looking at my bp's every other day for the last 5 weeks, dr was surprised I was able to keep it down consistently without being on blood pressure meds. I am totally amazed at how minimizing the sodium in my diet and keeping my feet up on a box during the day at work has helped. She told me to keep doing what I was doing.
This weekend, I sure did put Cory (and myself) to work. Our guest bedroom...soon to be the baby's room...was completely packed with stuff. The closet was packet as well as under the bed. So I had planned all week that I needed to get that room emptied out before Marci got here on Wed. In the meantime, my good friend called me in the middle of the week to tell me that she had gone through all her girl clothes and had quite a bunch of things that I may be able to use. Let's just say when we picked put the stuff on Friday night (6 - 40QT containers), we were floored at the amount of stuff she had packed away for us. Therefore, I was motivated to get all of Carson's old stuff out and go through it the same friends just had a little boy 2 months ago so we could swap clothes with her. I ended up spending hours on Saturday morning, sorting and sorting. Glad to say I was able to return her containers to her at church this morning full of boy clothes for Connelly. I still had 3 huge garbage containers full of garage sale stuff, had put some stuff away for Peyton, and another one of my friends who just had a little boy...but THANK GOSH it is all done now. Cory helped me find places for all the JUNK as he calls it and we now have the room all ready for Marci.
Today, I knew that after church I needed to come home and clean the house. UHHH no - it is 5:15 and I haven't even started. Cory left to go see a movie and Carson and I took a nap from 2-4. I know I really need to do it just can't get motivated! As Cory says....someone needs to light a fire under your butt so you can get it done...am sure when he gets home that will be fire enough as I told him when he left that is what I was doing and haven't not even begun :) Well just heard the garage door - was right...that was the fire under my hinney - gotta run :)
