Well, I've been feeling rather pregnant lately. Definitely been wanting more sleep than usual, but not always getting it. I am just huge. I need to get Alan to take some pictures. On the other hand, the extra weight has made my legs extremely buff. Mom tells me that that gym location is going on the block sometime in March so I may lose my workout venue. On the upside, the karate folks have already abandoned ship as of the new year, so there is much more studio time free.
I dug out, sorted and washed as necessary all the clothes I kept from Connor, and I cleaned, sorted out and rearranged the 'kid' dresser to accomodate the baby stuff. When you have a person that outgrows their wardrobe and possessions about every six months or so, it can be a job to keep unnecessary clutter cleared out. It was fun to see the (relatively) tiny clothes again. Connor weighed 9 lbs 4 oz when he was born, which means he was about the size of many folks' 1 month olds. The really tiny stuff never did fit him. While until late February seems like a long time to be heavily pregnant, from the prospective of not procrastinating about getting ready for the new arrival, it's not an eternity or anything. I need to order the birth kit, buy and collect the other materials the midwives want on hand, dust off the newborn size car seat and get it into the car, make a pediatric appt. for right after the birth, and cannabalise the hardware out of the more worn out baby sling and make a new one. Not to mention picking out a boy's name just in case. I think I will do the sewing project today.
The interior of the CRX is completely torn apart in the pursuit of dryness. I read that Humboldt County is requesting National Disaster Area status because of the rain and flooding, Apparently that was the wettest month the county has ever had. So I guess my car was flood damaged in a disaster and we just didn't notice until it didn't want to run. :)
