Finally… a BREAK!
School is FINALLY over!! It feels so good to be able to relax, especially for Ether. (Although I really haven’t relaxed much since I still had to work all week & barely got enough sleep.) He has been spending lots of time cleaning the apartment. And he’s cooking for me right now. I’m so lucky. =)
As for me, it’s been such a long week at work. I just couldn’t wait for it to be over. Although the stress of school is over, I still have to work on the Christmas program for Sacrament on Sunday. It’s a little frustrating because I just haven’t had the time to practice one of the songs and some people don’t show up to some of the rehearsals. So some of them don’t know the changes that are made, etc. Tomorrow is our “dress rehearsal” before the branch Christmas party, so I hope that turns out well. Otherwise I’ll be pulling my hair out. After that’s all over, then it’s finally time to celebrate Christmas! Not to mention, I’m going to get to sleep in. I’ll only have to work one day next week, which will be a peace of cake cuz there won’t be any kids there. I’ll just be sitting around and slacking off. I have 4 more weeks of work left before maternity leave. Then I’ll get to sleep all day and be lazy before the baby is born. That is, if she doesn’t come early. haha
Good news is that Jen will be in town with the baby & hubby next week, which is why I’ve only decided to work one day. I can’t wait to meet my lil nephew. I just didn’t want to wait til next year to see him, cuz they grow so fast.
The lil one inside me is really starting to kick and stretch like crazy. I think she’s hiccuped like 2 times today. Maybe more. I can pretty much feel everything now. I’m starting to walk a lot slower (like a normal pregnant lady) and people are still telling me I’m small for 7 months & that I’m carrying low. Oh well, as long as she’s healthy. I guess the only perks about being on this low sugar/carb diet is that I haven’t gained 30 pounds and I’ll probably be able to lose the weight fast after the birth. I’ve really been craving sweets though. It’s been harder to resist since this week everyone has been giving me chocolate & cookies for Christmas gifts. =/ I’ve decided that my next child will have to be born in August or September, so I don’t miss out on my birthday, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. =D
