Riley had a couple of weeks recently where he was a NIGHTMARE & always cranky. He had a tough time wanting to take his naps, but I'm pleased to report that has been remedied & he's back to napping twice a day & being a more pleasant baby. =) He hasn't gotten any new teeth & shows no interest in walking other than cruising furniture & the rails of his playpen. All in due time!
Speaking of due time...I met the Dr. that's to yank Mia out of me today. She's very nice. She said I'm about 1cm dilated already. Which lets me know my body's progressing, but dilation's not really an issue b/c Mia's not coming out of "there" any way. I've been having SO much pain & pressure down there lately. It feels like my pelvis is going to break apart. The Dr. assured me that she's never had any patient to explode =P Sometimes...it feels like I'll be the first - it's rough! 21 more days to go (if I don't go into labor on my own) & I couldn't be more ready!
Here I am at 36 weeks!
Dave's in the full swing of classes again. He's taking Spanish this year - which should be fun. For some odd reason I'm not attracted to Hispanic men, but I can't help but think it's the hottest thing ever when white guys speak Spanish, lol. So, I can't wait for him to learn, learn, learn! =P
Everything is going pretty well & I'm eager for Mia to be born so we can get started as a family of 5. Plus it'll be pretty great to NOT be pregnant, lol. I can hear a bottle of White Zinfandel just CALLING out to me! I'm also eager to get this baby weight off. I'm super motivated (let's hope that stays with me!) & have already informed Robert that he'll be pushing the double stroller (DOUBLE stroller - yikes!) while I walk w/ my arm weights. He's excited & so am I! Everyone is actually. Dave can't wait to see her & I really want to see how Riley will react to his new baby sister.
Well, that's about it for now. I shall keep you all updated on the ever-changing, never boring, & always endearing life & times of your favorite Touchtons.
