2 1/2 weeks to go!!!!!

Well, as Mike said, I've had a really easy pregnancy (apart from the first 10 wks when I was terrified I would miscarry again and throwing up every day!) - I've felt great and only gained 27lbs. ........something happened in the last week......I can't move my belly independently without having to heave my whole body with it! This must be what it is like for old people trying to move around, it takes ages to make the simplest move from the couch to the ice cream in the freezer (but well worth it for the chocolate fudge brownie by Ben and Jerry's). Needless to say, I've slowed down considerably, which is very frustrating because we are moving out of our house this week. So...I pack a box, sit down and catch my breath, pack another box, sit down...you get the picture. Poor Michael is heaving all the furniture himself, but HEY wait a minute, I'm heaving this baby around all by myself too so, ok, maybe we're both contributing! We are officially moving to his Mom's house tonight (ooh can't wait, it's so clean there!!), even though we still haven't received the permits to start construction. Our real goal is to break ground on the house the very DAY I give birth - bring it on, I can deal with it!!Agghhh. I am ashamed to say I've had a couple of little pregnancy related meltdowns but for the most part I'm still crying...oops I mean smiling. I can't find any underwear because it's all packed but I did find some unpaid bills under the furniture - it all evens out in the end! "Mum" is arriving next week so sanity will be restored - I can't wait to have her with me every day (and to change diapers heehee). I'm hoping Mike will try and keep up with the rest of the site but we're a little distracted with other things right now so be patient, we'll have lots of sleepless nights soon, where we can get things done! ttfn, h.x
