Good Morning! I got up at 6:30am today when J and T came back to bed after their morning walk. I’m not really sleeping these days. It’s not necessarily because I’m pregnant actually cause I’ve had this problem for years. From time to time I go into a period of waking up in the middle of the night and I can’t fall back to sleep for a few hours and then around 6am or so I finally fall asleep only to get up an hour later. Annoying.
Throughout my pregnancy I have been sleeping pretty well actually believe it or not, but now for a couple of weeks I just wake up around 2-3 am and can’t fall back to sleep. Somehow I’m not that tired during the day either which is odd. This week I have however more or less forced myself to take a nap in the afternoon because I know that my pregnant body definitely needs it, especially now as I get closer and closer to due date. But last night I had my headphones by the bed again (haven’t had them by my side since before babymoon) so when I woke up at 2:15 am I could grab them and listen to sleep meditations. Took me about an hour and then I actually fell asleep! And I didn’t wake up until 5:30. Woohoo! I tried to fall back to sleep but when the boys came back in I just decided to get up because I was hungry:)
Yup, that was my very interesting sleep story to start off this Friday hahah.
We have a three-day-weekend coming up which includes Valentine’s Day. What special things are we gonna do? Nothing haha. I don’t really care about V-day, it’s just a day for Hallmark to sell cards and flower shops to earn a bit of extra cash. I rather just tell my husband every day that I love him. And on Monday, the only difference is that J will not sit by his computer to work, he will most likely just sit there to read sports news and play games, so it won’t be that much different there either:) I will be a busy bee as all days these day. I feel like my to-do lists (plural) is just getting longer and longer. And I should be starting to slow down and be done with all the to-do’s. Hopefully we can tick off some things together this weekend.
sometimes you just have to take your own maternity photos
Jim and Thor eventually came outside and snapped this photo
