Diaries Of A Trophy Wife

I made this...

hat for our little one.


It was pretty difficult to figure out at first since it is the first round shaped thing I've ever knitted, but I'm happy with the end result :-) I can't wait to see him in it.

I go for another dr. appointment tomorrow afternoon. I'm starting to wonder how I'll be able to drive myself all the way up there to the hospital from now on. My energy level is very low these days. I've had to start having Travis go with me to the grocery store so I don't have to try to lift heavy things in and out of the cart. He's been really great with helping me if I ask. He's been catering to me alot, cooking me dinner and bringing me snacks and things to drink. I really appreciate him. I feel guilty asking him to do so much since he works and is so busy with school though. But I don't know what I'd do without him. Sleep is also a major chore. I'll usually sleep for an hour, maybe two, before I have to make a trip to the bathroom. Then I'll spend five minutes trying to prop my belly up and get situated before I can go back to sleep. These past few nights it's been getting worse where it seems like he's pressing on my stomach, making me feel nauseous. I have to say though, I've been doing very well on little sleep, so far ;-) I usually get very cranky when I'm tired. Well, I have been very moody, but I just chalk that up to hormones. I'm just glad to have an excuse ;-) Am I complaining? I really don't mean to. I'm very happy there's a little guy in there :-)

I'm thinking I'll have another appointment in two weeks after tomorrow, then go every week, but I'm not sure. I can't believe how close it's getting!

I'm also very happy to announce that we are having a heat pump and all the duct work installed next week. Travis and I decided it was ok to have a cold house in the winter if it was just us, but we can't have that with a baby. I hated shelling out all that money right now, but it's a necessity at this point.

Have a great Monday!
