Blogging replacing sleep

So what happens when you're super tired but you can't sleep? Blogging happens. Kind of like now. I just finished up working on a few orders and find myself incapable of sleeping. Go figure. I was EXHAUSTED around 6:00 tonight and could barely keep my eyes open during an episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Now I find myself wide awake. I don't understand! I need to sleep! Gabe fell asleep around 6:45 tonight and has been passed out ever since. So, it's safe to say that I need to get to bed SOON since my little man will most likely be giving me an early wake up call! I must admit... I am STILL not used to these early mornings. You would think that having a toddler and being a mother for almost 2 years I would have adapted to the early mornings...but NO SIR, not I. I still LOVE my sleep and sleeping in. Sometimes I can squeeze a few extra minutes in when we watch our morning Mickey Mouse episodes. Sometimes I can't. Gabe still doesn't understand that Mommy needs more sleep even when he's ready to go at 7 a.m. Believe me when I say that we are working on this fact. Now I know that once the baby comes all bets are pretty much out the window. I can't say I'm really looking forward to the nightly feedings that occur every 3 hours or so... but I can say that I am definitely looking forward to meeting our new little boy and not being pregnant anymore? 

OH! And in case you have forgotten, let me remind you on how much I dislike being pregnant. I'm not a happy pregnant person. At All. Ask anyone I know. Better yet, ask Jesse... because he literally gets to hear me complain about this every single day. It's safe to say that he's ready for this pregnancy to be over and for our baby boy to be here too. And it's also safe to say that this will most likely be our last pregnancy... I'm not sure either of us can handle another round of pregnancy. Which is fine... because we plan on adopting down the road. :) 

I go to the doctor every 2 weeks now. Isn't that strange? I've never been pregnant this long before. We are officially 30 weeks! It's so strange to think that at this time during my pregnancy with Gabe he was already here. So tiny and precious. Boy, does time fly! Anyway, doctor says that I'll most likely make it full term. I'm trying to talk him into letting me go a bit early if all is well... I don't think it will happen. But hey, a girl can dream, right? My glucose test came back good, I have no swelling, and no signs of high blood pressure. The only thing I am suffering from is being overwhelmingly HUGE and from the baby taking rest upon a nerve that sends pain down my leg. He's moved from the right leg to the left leg and every now and then he will switch it up. It's not pleasant. At all. 

I'm getting very anxious and in the next few weeks my goal is to get this house prepped for Baby. That includes getting all of his furniture in, bedding together, clothes washed, etc. I've also been making a list of things to pack for the hospital. We had SOOOOO much stuff when we left the hospital after having Gabe. However, we were in there for 2 weeks and over time things just started accumulating. I'd like to take the necessities and nothing else this time around. I also have to get all of Gabe's things together for his Big Brother Kit. I really want to have it done early... Just in case. So fingers crossed I get some energy in the next few weeks! :) 

Anyway, that's all the updates for tonight. This Momma is going to try to go to sleep! Night all!
