lack of sleep, pain, etc.

For some reason I didn't go to bed until 2am last night (this morning). This is Not Good. Normally (by which I mean "when I'm not pregnant") I stay up till 1am at the latest, but for the last few months I've been making a real effort to get to bed by midnight. And this was the first time I've stayed up that late on a weeknight in a long time. It's especially bad since sleeping is so hard for me lately.

( in which I provide tedious detail about my sleeping patterns of late )

So pretty soon I may be moving to a chair to sleep, possibly for the duration of my pregnancy. This is sad because I love my waterbed, but nice because it means the end is nigh. So to speak. ;) But I digress, my point having been: I got to bed way late last night so now I'm very tired. Woe.

It's been pretty much decided that I'll go stay with my mom for at least a few days, maybe even a couple of weeks, after the baby comes. This will just be easier in so many ways than her coming to stay with me at my place. I'll have to find someone to feed Bini and take in my mail and so forth, but that shouldn't be too difficult. Figuring out what to do with my car might be more "interesting," but we'll deal with that when the time gets closer. The hardest part about staying with mom will probably be having to use her sucky dialup connection to tell y'all about baby's every action! I'm so going to miss my cable modem! Snif. ;)

My belly-button is poking out a little more every day. Maybe by the time I actually go into labor it'll be all the way out. LOL! :)

belly pix!

Finally uploaded the belly pix that my mom took last Tuesday!

There were more, but these are the best of this set. I'll be putting them up on my website with the others soon.

How do I always manage to close my eyes just as the camera goes off??? :P
