I've turned into the Energizer Bunny

Still going.....and going........and going. I keep thinking that the longer I carry this baby the more he'll gain and the less weight I'll have to lose in the end! Does it work like that????

Other than that all is normal around here. Brad is back on shift and I am left trying to stay off my feet due to the swelling. That's a joke but at least I can attempt to. I think at this point I'm just kind of restless. Gone is the whole nesting thing. I think that kind of tapered off...but then I did enough while it lasted to last through a lifetime of projects. So, I don't feel too bad about that. The children are still carrying out their daily stuff so the house stays in good shape and it doesn't look like I just up and quit everything. The dishes are still getting done and the kitchen stays clean. All of the wash is up to date and everything is folded and put away by them. So, as for the lack of nesting thing, I'm alright with just sitting for awhile. Bathrooms are getting cleaned and everything got dusted, polished and Windexed today.

So, now the children are outside swimming to get them good and worn out for bedtime. I think I'm going to go put on some makeup while they play and fix myself up just so I don't feel like I've half way been in bed all day trying to stay off my feet. Maybe if it weren't 100 degrees outside and maybe if it weren't a rock road and maybe if I had defined feet I might go walking to try and start some contractions up. But, as it is, once they're bedded down I think I'll just go lay in bed with a good movie and some popcorn.........and a good magazine that has absolutely nothing to do with being pregnant. I wish Brad were home....but at least he's not 4 hrs away.

Hey...and they DO make castor oil capsules!!! You have to order them off the internet and it'd probably be too late by the time they got here but they do exist! I may just try the old fashioned stuff on my oatmeal if I get too desperate....but, as it is, I'm restless but not quite THAT desperate. I made up my mind that if baby's not here by TH I'm just going to change my Fri appt to Mon. That way we don't get stuck there with her wanting to go ahead and try to move things along. Baby will come when it's time. And the Lord has a very special birthday for this one so I look forward to seeing what birthday God will bless him with...not what my impatience will bless him with!
