my day of frustration...

yesterday I could have used the blog for a HUGE venting fest, but it being "wordless" wednesday I did that instead.

I've slept horribly this week...I've decided that being pregnant and having a cold DO NOT MIX!! I either couldn't breath, couldn't swallow, or laying a certain way was uncomfortable. I woke up with a headache yesterday, stuffy nose, achy, and 2 toddlers that just wouldn't leave each other alone!! I really wanted Keith to stay home and he offered if I wasn't feeling good, but I know in reality he really needed to work. I was hoping the storm would stop him, but just my luck it didn't.

I let the boys watch tv all morning...not something I normally do, but I seriously couldn't handle it. Maybe I should have called J's mom to come and get him, but I just have a cold...doesn't seem like a big enough excuse to me. So I toughed it out. J has a tendency to touch EVERYTHING that avery has, he will eventually get it, I ask him to give it back, and well he teasing A with it. This makes A whiny and so very dramatic! I was ready to put them in seperate corners for the day. I hate days like this! Through my blurry eyes, I could see moments where they actually play together nicely...but they don't happen often enough!

I also had a TON of laundry to do as I had no clean clothes to wear. Being pregnant and going down the stairs w/ a basket full of laundry doesn't work. Apparently, like all guys Keith conviently misses this so I have to ASK to get them downstairs. I don't like to do laundry when the kids are here so I try to do them during nap. Except yesterday there was so much i just got overwhelmed and did them. I had the promise of a husband coming home to help fold...they are still not folded in the basket. So I shall have to do it! Mind you he also can't seem to place his dirty clothes in the bathroom so im constantly walking on them as i REFUSE to pick them up! It gets hard for a pregnant mama to bend over, nevermind the fact that he is a big boy and should be able to do it himself. I wasn't happy with him either yesterday but that was only for a moment. I have to remember he has been working and doing work on avery's room. I do wish he would learn to manage his time better!

My fil has determined that the baby is coming early b/c Keith said that I was measuring big...we shall see I guess. The baby is more than welcome to come early...but not for at least 4 more weeks. keith and I last night were trying to decide where the heck my organs are inside my body...after he looked and said "i love your belly!" yes I actually do have one...aka a bay belly. but it is most prominent at night. other times you can't really tell.

I slept fairly well last night...or so I thought. As the day goes on I get more and more tired! But of course I will roll into bed and be wide awake as always! such is life as a pregnant mommy!
