Hi! Hope you are well! I feel great to be honest. Sure, I’m not in perfect body shape, cause you know, I am pregnant after all. And my body is trying to tell me to slow down as well. For some reason I still have tons of energy, even on days when I haven’t slept much, I just keep going. For ex. I slept for 1.5 hours uncomfortably on the couch on the night to Sunday due to that the neighbor was smoking weed all night that made our bedroom so stinky it gave me a headache, but I was still up doing stuff during the day. The next evening our bedroom stank again (it’s all day and night these days) but I needed to be comfortable so I just pulled the covers above my head and after a couple of hours I could finally fall asleep, and then up next day doing more stuff.
With all this energy I feel like doing so much, but my body doesn’t really allow me to which is a very strange feeling. It’s not like I get tired or that my muscles doesn’t work, it’s more like I run out of power to actually execute anything. These days, just to be cooking in the kitchen can cause me to hang over the counter for a couple of minutes because the power ran out and I’m slightly dizzy. It’s kinda like being hungover-ish. I’m not tired but the body doesn’t function properly. Hard to explain. It’s simply just my body’s way of telling me to start to take it easy. 

We didn’t do much this weekend. Actually, that’s kinda a lie. I did tons of stuff, at least on Saturday. Bought baby shower dress at TJ Maxx, went Costco shopping and went to the normal grocery store (and both times wiped off all the products which takes time, something we have done for a year now), did loads of laundry, went for a walk on Cove Island where Thor ended up “pooping his pants” which resulted in a full bath when we came home, opened more packages (we feel so spoiled with all these gifts), we sat on our terrace in the sun, watched a Disney movie and ate good food. I am sure that I also cleaned the apartment a bit:)
This upcoming weekend will be a busy one. Baby shower on Saturday and on Sunday we probably have to go do some last errands before I have to isolate myself in April leading up to babys arrival. 

One of those melons was kicking when this photo was taken 🙂
(and during the whole time we were grocery shopping)
After my post about craving Swedish candy last week, I no longer have candy cravings.
Now it’s all about fruit fruit fruit, just like in the first trimester

Baby was having a party during my sleepless night and throughout the whole day on Sunday.
