Sunday night the baby felt like it turned sideways & had both sets of limbs jambed into both sides of my rib cage. Needless to say it was quite uncomfortable & I couldn't get to sleep until 5:45 am! After about half an hour, my hubby got up for his meeting so I continued taking 20 min cat naps as much as I could during the day.
At nap time, I was reading a book to our son when he asked what one of the pictures was. I told him it was a melon that we eat & he responded by clapping his hands against his cheeks & said in an astonished tone, "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" (LOL) I couldn't help but laugh out loud at my son's adorable moment.
In the late afternoon, the three of us watched a major thunderstorm coming down from inside our garage for a short time. My son was fascinated by all the rain, thunder & lightning. He got a little scared with a particularly loud clap of thunder but got over it quickly. Then he would wait for the thunder to come after the lightning. What he really got a kick out of was Daddy 'predicting' when thunder would happen. We'd all clap when Daddy got it right. The winds were so strong at one point that we thought the large trampoline was going to flip over.
After work, we exchanged cars with my hubby's sister & picked up a water slide attachment from someone really nice on freecycle. I just know our son is going to love it! He talked about & pointed it out for the remainder of the night. Then my parents watched our son for a short while while we went out for saganaki. There we discovered that I only have about half an inch of space between my belly & the table. Thankfully the baby didn't move too much during dinner or I would've gotten stuck! (LOL) So for now, we're going to have to avoid sitting at booths. Then once we picked up our son & got home, I went to bed & my hubby to work for an hour or so. Although the baby was still sideways, it now had a slight angle which allowed me to sleep until I got kicked out of bed at 4 am by a bathroom break which followed by our son crawling into bed with us & hogging the bed. When I awoke this morning, the baby is still sideways with a slight angle & uncomfortable but doable.
This morning our local pest control company returned for a free visit with the thirty days because my hubby found a major ant hill (seriously like two feet long & six inches wide) in the small corner area by our front porch. So we had them specialize in that area in addition to re-treating the perimeters for precaution. Hopefully it'll be all good now without further problems. But hey, at least they haven't come back inside! (knock on wood)
After breakfast, our son kept hugging, kissing & talking to the baby in my belly. You can tell he's starting to get excited about having a baby in the house. We keep talking about how he gets to be involved in everything which he loves. In the meantime, he enjoys talking to the baby especially.
Today I have to find the energy to get laundry & dishes done. Later tonight my hubby & I also need to clean up & organize the basement before we have some friends over later this week.
