I CAN'T SLEEP!!

So I've truly hit the stage of uncomfortableness (I realize that isn't even a word). On Monday I went to the doctor. I was 34 weeks on Monday, but measured at 38 weeks. Needless to say I have a big baby! Unfortunately, he has a surgery scheduled for a different hospital on the 13th, so I am now down in his book for June 16th. Although, I am CERTAIN that if I wait that long I will have a 10 pound baby! So I MUST do some things to induce labor on my own. I seriously can not imagine waiting 4 1/2 more weeks! I'm dying here!

Anyway, I laid in bed, trying to get comfortable ("heave-ho, heave-ho!"), for about an hour, and finally gave up when I started getting hungry (I've been RAVENOUS today!). So here it is, after midnight, and I can't sleep. What a bummer (one of my preschool kids pointed out that I say "What a bummer" a lot).

What have I been up to? Today I worked for about 4 hours on my bookkeeping job for Optimist Youth Football. May is the month of sign ups (there are 8 different days for registration), and I'm the one that gets to count all the $, deposit the checks, and count the #'s of players for each age group and also count all the merchandise that was sold. Then I've got to make sure the #'s match. I was about 2 behind, so I worked on that all afternoon. Zack went and hung out with grandpa (while he was doing stuff outside), and Seth had a 3 1/2 hour nap. I was able to get a nap in as well. Hooray! I also confirmed that I am out of jury duty that I was summoned to for next week. Thank goodness.... apparently I can only postpone two months, so they may be sending me another postcard in July (sure, that'll work well with a newborn! - I wonder how many times you can request to "postpone").

This evening after dinner was done and the three little one's were in bed, I worked out in my flower bed. I will take a pix and post after I'm all done! I love doing it, but it has been a little more difficult to work on this year (obviously). Roman and the kids have helped me out a lot - THANK YOU!

Last night Haley and I went to a "Miss and Her Mom" party for Activity Days. We got to dress a like, so we put on our long sleeved black t's, blue jeans, I put on my glasses, and we did hair up in messy buns. I'll have to get a copy of the pix and post it. It looks pretty funny with my massive belly sticking out. People used to tell me how cute I looked - I warned them though... I told them that in the end I would be "whale-like"! And now I most definitely am! I thought about taking a picture of my bare belly, but decided that would be just bit TMI (too much info). I know you're dying to see my stretch marks, veins, and mass of belly - but you have to be family to have that privilege!

OK - I'm now rambling, so I'd better stop. It's almost 1am, so I'll go try to get some sleep before Seth comes in my bed and puts his face right to mine and says "mommy, mommy, mommy..." What a fun way to wake up! : )
