6 months begins
I posted a new picture yesterday. It’s a shot of The Belly in all of it’s glory taken last weekend in San Diego.
Yesterday I made a list of some of the things that I need to do in the coming months. I’m supposed to be all settled and ready for the twins and the holidays before November so I intend to attend the childbirth class this month, breastfeeding multiples class next month, Christmas baking in October and saved in the freezer, Christmas shopping for the neices and god daughter in October as well. This year I’m going to only do Christmas gifts for the kids and teenagers in the family so that I don’t take on more then I can afford or do. Wendy is planning my baby shower for the first weekend in November and we are considering having it as more of a friend’s party and less of a traditional baby shower. Seems more appropriate for our group of friends. As important as some of the men in our circle are to me it doesn’t seem fair to leave them out.
I’m having more of those moments this weekend of realizing what I’ve taken on by choosing to be a mother. I expect this is normal for any woman at some point in the pregnancy. I haven’t had too many “crying times” like earlier in the pregnancy since entering the fifth month but this weekend tears have come up several times. Seems like I just get into a mental rut and can’t get out of it until I let myself cry through it. Once I let the tears come it’s all fine again.
Turns out that Wendy’s cousin’s wife, Tempa, is also having twins boys and we are only a week apart in our pregnancies! This is pretty exciting to me because it’s neat to have someone to share this experience directly with who I already know. She already has one totally beautiful little boy so I can’t wait to see what these two look like.
I’m up at this ridiculous hour of 4 AM without a bit of ability to go back to sleep. Now that I’ve posted in here what else can I do before the rest of the world wakes up?
