32 weeks = no sleep

Here it is, 3:05 am on Tuesday October 25th, and I am awake. Why you say? You think it is easy to sleep at this point? Absolutely not. On Friday, 4 days ago, we were measuring at 39 weeks. AKA the size of a full term singleton pregnancy. And I know I have grown in the last few days even.

I was reading my "What to Expect" book tonight thinking to myself that I was in for a long next couple of weeks. At this point, EACH girl is gaining about a half a pound a week. Thats ONE NEW POUND of baby each week! That just seems crazy to me. Oh man, where is all this weight going to go??? My tummy already feels really heavy at the end of the day. What is it going to be like in 2 weeks? Or in 4 weeks (if we can make it that long)?

Yesterday was my first day of working part time. It was really nice not having to go into work until 11 o'clock and being off at 3 o'clock. I had so much energy when I got home from work. I worked on organizing the Girls' room, again. But then about 4:30 or so I hit a brick wall and didn't regain any energy the rest of the night. My guess is that is my magic time to get things done before time for a nap.

I am very thankful to have such an amazing husband. Even though I was home first, and really should have started something good for dinner, he didn't mind. We ended up having pasta and veggies. And even that was a group effort. Thanks babe for not wanting a 3 course meal :O)

I am starting to get a little sleep right now, this blogging thing in the middle of the night might become a habit...at least until these little girls get here. I will try harder to update more than once every trimester.
