Preparing for Exhaustion

Well, not too many exciting pictures for this post, but I thought I would update anyways. Today I am 24 weeks- Felix is out of town so we will have a picture up tomorrow of the ever expanding belly. Silly me, I looked in the mirror this morning and thought "I bet if I tried on my jeans, they would still fit", and my friend Kristy who was there just laughed. She said I am just getting used to seeing my new baby belly that I have forgotten how much I have actually grown. It's ok though- I will ALWAYS remember these times with my baby in my belly, and how much I just LOVE to lay in bed and feel her move around. It's a very special moment just between me & her. I am seeing her move a lot more too, she makes my belly bump all over. Good thing she is so resilient, because if she was like those memory foam pillows, she would come out with finger prints all over her from me pressing on her to feel where she is!!!
So why the title for this blog? Well, my weekends are usually packed with running errands to get the house finished, or shopping for food, or cleaning. I have still been doing my aerobics videos and going for walks, but I have got to tell ya... I get tired a lot faster than I used to! Today I walked with Kristy this morning to breakfast and then back home, then cleaned and unpacked more stuff in the house, lots of laundry and dishes, food shopping, cut up a bunch of fruits & veggies for next weeks lunches, and then finally sat down for dinner and my poor little feetsies are just aching!!!! So I figure, my body slowing down is just good practice for getting used to functioning when exhausted after the baby comes!
