Today's ramblings

We had another OB appt today and things are looking great... this little boy is quite the troublemaker always hiding from the doppler and taking forever to get a heartbeat count. I've officially reached my max weight that I wanted to reach this pregnancy. It's just that eating food is the only way I don't feel nauseous. Plus, I've been having to drink juice and Gatorade because of the fact that I've had major heartburn from drinking water. Water really? Yes, water is the culprit to my heartburn this pregnancy. I also haven't done really much exercising since vacation and so I'm not really doing my best at avoiding the 70lb weight gain I had with Isaac. It's kind of depressing me but I don't know which is worse... eating to feel better and gaining a bunch of weight, or just being miserable. I mean, I know how to take it off and it came off pretty easy with Isaac, I'm just afraid it's going to be even harder after my 3rd pregnancy. Anyways, I came home and Mark had built the kids a tent and they were all playing in the tent in the living room. It was so cute and they were so bummed when he had to go back to work.

Otherwise, not much else is going on... I'm dealing with some funk issues again. It's just that time of year anniversaries of a lot of really sad things and it just makes me so sad thinking about them and the families dealing with the pain. Obviously one of them is 9/11, I don't think I'll ever forget that day in 2001. 9/12 was the 1 year anniversary of a friend's death and that was really hard too. His family was and still is really heavy on my heart. Really in the next couple months there are anniversaries for deaths and it's just hard thinking of those left behind. In about a month is the anniversary of our first miscarriage and we'll be remembering all of our losses on 10/15 for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Which reminds me that I need to find our candles.

Anyways, enough of the somber news, I'm excited that Fall is almost here, while it is emotionally a very hard season for me... it still is my most favorite season. I'm looking forward to apple picking and the changing colors and the cooler weather and of course the yummy food. YAY!
