Update
Well, this has been a pretty fab weekend, I have to say.

The house still appears to be stuck. I hope it all works out, but I'm getting nervous because our mortgage process is taking forever, and the seller is getting antsy because her home purchase might get messed up by ours because ours is taking so long. Not good. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Food has been pretty good. I have to say, I'm sick of all this eating, but I've been trying my best to eat healthfully. Seriously, I can't wait to go on a diet, although that seems like a million miles away at this point.

Right now, I am almost 25 weeks, which is about 6.5 months. I feel like I have been pregnant forever, and I am finally starting to look like a pregnant lady in that I actually have a belly. The belly itself is kind of cute, because there's a baby in it and all, but I could really do without the rest of the weight gain. I mean, I'm not gestating in my ass or in my thighs, but I swear you'd never know that by looking at me. The rest of me feel huuuuuuuge. I hate all the prego models, because they're all super skinny everywhere else because they totally take regular models, have them wear fake bellies, and then they model maternity wear. So...fucking...annoying. I can't explain how difficult it is to just...keep....getting...bigger. Seriously. I keep sizing up, and it is nothing short of shattering and exhausting. I am now in phase 3 of my wardrobe change. Phase 1 was basically moving out of my smaller clothes and wearing my more generously cut clothes. Phase 2 was size small maternity clothes, most of which I can still wear. I am now moving towards Phase 3, which is size medium maternity clothes. I'm not in them yet, but I ordered them because I'm about to size up...again. I hope this is as big as it gets. Ugh. I do...not...want...to....get....any bigger than that. Generally, I feel fine as long as I'm not doing something that makes me accutely aware of my body, but...*sigh*

Anyhow, the pregnancy is going well. Baby's moving a lot at this point, which is really neat. I'm starting to get a bit more tired again. I can't tell if it's the heat and dehydration, or if I just need more iron. I've been trying to get more water and more iron just in case, either way.

Now that it's getting close to baby time, I am starting to get a bit more nervous, the more and more I think about it. I really hope I'm cut out for this, that I'll be a good mom, that I won't screw her up, and that she won't hate me.

Anyhow, I'm about to get my day started....I have a few things on the agenda. 30 minute walk, either outside or in the concourse, Rosetta Stone for an hour or so, lunch with D, and random internetting. I already made dinner for tonight, so hopefully we'll go to the gym too, where I'll lift weights. Woo hooo!

I...am really running late today! Somehow, this took me way longer than it should have!
