So this is the stupid thing I did to my car last week. Scraped my car on a corner of a truck. I swear, this is why I hate trucks but it's my own stupid fault. Pregnancy must be affecting my center or something. I could have sworn I had enough space to pull up to the curb. Oh well. Can't wait to get the momi-van back. I can barely fit in the rental car...baby does not like it.

Speaking of whom, I can feel her moving at incredible strength sometimes. She makes me take trips to the toilet more often than I'd like. I can't wait to meet this little one. So far, she's healthy, I'm healthy. If I was to make a complaint, it would be that I'm cramping more than I'd like. This little one doesn't like me cleaning. My kind of gal.

Exterminator is coming tomorrow to spray the house again. I'm so sick of these little springtails. They gross me out. I hate bugs of all sorts. They are relentless and I fear they are breeding in the walls or under the floors. They sure arent' coming from outside cuz we've been getting our house treated on a regular basis and we are still encountering problems.

Nesting instinct is kicking in big time. I want to clean and rearrange and organize everything. Wish we had the funds to do it. There's just so much to do.

Ellie keeps asking me what the baby is doing on an hourly basis. i think it's so cute that she's curious and sometimes she imitates what the baby might be doing or how she may be reacting in my tummy. Ellie's such a character. She was also very intrigued that I was putting on make up today...sitting right next to me asking me what I'm putting on my face and why...what is this called and what is that called. She gave me lots and lots of hugs and "i love you"s this weekend. I thought she didn't like me.

Kate is such a riot. She's grown up mentally so much these past few weeks. Her vocabulary's grown and she's just growing up too fast. My biggest focus these days with her is making sure she adjusts well to the arrival of the new baby. I have a feeling she will handle it much better than Ellie did, but kids are kids and Kate will eventually end up becoming the middle child so that's an issue I want to address as early as possible but am clueless as to how to go about doing that. Much prayer.

All in all, I feel very blessed. Why is God so good to me?
