Getting Tired...

Wow, have I been getting tired lately. By late afternoon I have been feeling pretty exhausted this past week. I've decided to do a booth at the Holiday fair at my son's school so I've been crafting like crazy as I only have a month from today to get a ton of items made. So much is going on at both kids' schools like fundraisers, parent-teacher conferences and days off that I'm starting to forget the small things like sending my son's snack to school every day. So not only am I physically exhausted from all the running around, cleaning and making things, but I'm also mentally exhausted by trying to remember everything!

I'm 21 weeks tomorrow and I'm telling you it won't be long before I start counting down the days until these babies are born. I'm still in disbelief at how much bigger this belly is going to get. I've been having more and more difficulty eating because I just feel like I can't fit anything in there. Today I told my husband before lunch that I was really hungry, but I was full. My belly is just getting so big and uncomfortable that I feel full a lot of the time. At least I'm still sleeping well for the most part so I can't complain too much. I just wish I had more time to sleep!

take care and just think...once the babies are here, you'll be able to sleep....vs. carring them and then the every 2 hour feedings right after!!!

Blessing your way!!

Simplify. A great make-ahead snack is zucchini bread (or banana or pumpkin...). Make a couple of loaves at once, cool, then slice away and put into individual baggies. Get a sack of apples, and you're set!

I take a nap nearly every day now. I remember being exhausted during the first trimester of my other pregnancies, but this is the first time I recall needing a daily nap in the second half. It is what it is. :-) So I rest.
