happenings

Lots has been happening around here! But then it's funny because sometimes it seems like nothing at all has been happening haha. But really, there has been a lot! So I thought I'd give an update.

I am now 34 weeks pregnant!! Gaaaaaahhh. That's weird. We've officially hit the point where I can say that we are having a baby next month! Like WHAT. So nuts. And so, so exciting all at the same time! For the most part, I still feel pretty good. Exhaustion has start to set in and there have been a couple days that I feel like I literally cannot go on or function without a nap. So I nap and I nap hard. Like 2+ hour naps. I'm not sleeping super well at night, I'm pretty restless and mostly uncomfortable and I'm tired all the time so my naps are where I get my sleep I guess haha.

Side note: WHY can't pregnant women sleep well towards the end?? Like, we're going to have a baby here soon, shouldn't I be getting the best sleep of my life now? Because we're going to be sleep deprived then that's for sure. But starting now before we even have the baby? That's kinda mean. Or maybe smart... I guess it's good prep. But I don't like it.

Anyway.... I've started to get ligament/tendon/something pain right in my groin area and I've done a ton of research and apparently that's pretty normal. Things are just changing a lot and it goes away when you have the baby. It just makes getting out of bed hard, putting pants on hard, and rolling over hard. So I feel like, sound like, and look like I'm 100 years old sometimes haha.

Okay, enough complaining. Other than that, I feel GREAT. I am so excited to get this baby here!! Nesting has start to set in a little and I just want everything CLEAN and FINISHED. Which is a challenge because we're still doing renovations. Ha. But, basement should be finished really soon and then we can do some shifting and set up baby's nursery!

Moving on to things other than baby... (but what else is there? ;) just kidding!) I graduated? That's great news and a pretty big deal, ya? It maybe doesn't feel like it because I did online school and I didn't walk. In hindsight, I totally should've walked. I just didn't because... I don't know. Too much of a hassle? I really don't know. It would've been a really cool experience but I am happy and well without walking so it's fine.

I graduated from Weber State with a degree in Health Administrative Services with an emphasis in Health Promotion. Whew. That's a lot to say haha. After I say that, most people ask what I'm going to do with that and my answer is nothing. I really am not particularly interested in my degree, which is so awful. But, there was a mix up with my programs and I ended up being farther along in this one than the one I originally intended to be in so I just went with it. Honestly, I'll probably go back to school anyway so I'm not overly concerned. My original oriiiiginal plan was to go to nursing school, but life happened and nursing school didn't. So, I'll go back and do that eventually. Sooner? Later? I'm not sure. But I will. And then I'll walk :)

Kade was the nicest and stopped by Weber State on the way to his parent's this past weekend. It was actually only my 2nd time EVER being on campus haha! Neither of us knew where the "front" of the school was or where you took your graduate picture. You know, the ones... It was a Sunday and there wasn't a soul in sight so we drove around for a minute and decided this was just fine. Good thing too because I did a jumping picture and it probably wasn't pretty...

Pregnant people are maybe not meant to jump like that hahaha.

Anyway, those are life's happenings. I'm just trying to be patient and enjoy all the things because life is going to change drastically here pretty soon. So, cheers to patience and enjoying all the things!
