Monday again. But that is OK. I was alright with the weekend coming to an end this time. Josh is home from Georgia after a long week of being away. I was so happy to see his face come through the door last night!
This weekend was a productive weekend. I cleaned, I mean SCRUBBED, our house. Some are saying it's nesting, I'm sticking with Spring cleaning. I hate when a house has been shut up for months. A lot of times in the winter Josh doesn't even like to open the blinds because "it lets the cold air in". True or not, some days I don't want to see the gloominess of winter either. So it was just nice to clean the house this weekend. I enjoy cleaning, and it has always been a stress reliever of mine. But once this pregnancy started and I felt sick most of the time, I only did what I needed to maintain. It felt good to clean.
This weekend was not only productive but fun too. Saturday evening I went to a friends house to celebrate her birthday. It was a surprise kind of dinner thing. It was fun and I was glad that I was able to enjoy it with her. I got home kind of late that night, and almost immediately went to bed. I decided to read some in my 'What to Expect' book, but then I decided that maybe I should read the baby a book. So, I went and got the book Harold and the Purple Crayon and started reading aloud to the baby. To my surprise, baby started moving and I looked down and could see baby moving. CRAZY! I just kept reading and watching my belly. It was so amazing! I immediately called Josh to tell him! He couldn't believe it and was disappointed at the same time because he was not there to see it. We will have to see if baby does it again tonight. Josh was so tired last night that I just let him go to bed. It's amazing at how much baby is moving now, and how much stronger baby seems to get everyday. I'm enjoying every moment of this pregnancy, but am getting so anxious to meet baby! Sunday was just filled with cleaning. Lots and lots of cleaning. I did also notice this weekend with me up and moving around so much, that my ankles did not swell. Guess my mom was right, my ankles are swelling because I have a desk job and just sit all day. Guess when it gets a little bit warmer, I will walk at lunch. Until then, I'll get up every hour and walk.
Happy Monday!
