Week 53

I decided to keep counting weeks. I like the fact that I can print my blog and have a journal of some of our happenings each week. Its a good way to keep track of time.

This past week I headed to Arizona for a work conference and stayed an extra day to see some family. Its always good to see everyone but I did not enjoy that 107 degree weather one bit. Not one bit. I did okay the first day but by the second day I was over it. Granted in another few months I will be freezing and they will be in the 70s. I'll learn to time my visits better. :)

But I did get to see all these munchkins including new baby Zack (3 months old now). What a bunch of cuties!
I crashed Friday night at Katie's. We saw a movie and then hit one of my favorite Mexican restaurants, Tia Rosa's and IKEA on Saturday. Thanks for hanging out Katie!

I tell ya what... these pregnancy hormones are out of control. No one told me that you can get really crabby and irritable from them. No one told me that you can get nasal congestion from them. No one told me that everything you eat gives you gas. No one told me that my already thick hair will get even thicker.

I am beyond thankful that we did not get pregnant any earlier in our marriage. How do newlyweds deal with adjusting to marriage and then put pregnancy hormones on top of it? Or maybe I'm just one of the unlucky ones who feels irritable?? I hear the irritability will mostly go away in the next couple weeks. Let's hope. I feel like I'm constantly apologizing to Eric for stupid things I say or do. My brain knows I shouldn't behave this way but it all comes out anyway. It ain't fun. I think I've figured out why Eric decided to take up shooting again. I kid, I kid.

With my first pregnancy I got super mad at Ryan whenever he touched me. I, like you, felt super awesome.

I feel for you Erin! Talk to me, I will tell you the truth! :0) I am not the same person when I am pregnant. Anyway, it is all worth it in the end. Congrats by the way!

Oh, by the way... the prego thing... it kinda messes with you...

I remember many times hiding in a closet praying that my "normal" wife would come back...
