I’ve been neglecting my blog much more than I’d like, but I’ve been so busy doing a gazillion things lately, including building another blog (details later). Here's a pic from April 1 of Nico and I enjoying the 75+ deg weather in our back yard.
March was full of new things and adventures: the creation of this blog; welcoming Spring and warm weather-- finally leaving our ‘state of hibernation’ for the enjoyment of activities out of the house (we sooo needed this!); joining the local MOMS Club (which has been awesome, and btw I can’t believe I waited so long to do this); and have been in full force nesting mode for the arrival of Victoria, within the next 4 weeks! omg!! I’m 36 weeks… here's a pic of me with my 36 wk belly:
Time flies! I can barely believe a quarter of the year is already gone, and soon Victoria will be with us.
Exciting times ahead, and more dirty diapers…tons more, lol. Yesterday I had my 36 wk appt with my ObGyn. I was surprised to hear I was measuring 33 cm at 36 wks. I guess it's "le petite princess Victoria" in my belly, haha, perhaps she'll be smaller than Nico when she's born (he was 7 lbs 5 oz), and about my height when she's an adult. Dr said there was no concern, and also said my cervix is intact as I have not started dilating yet. What a relief! It’s good to hear from the Dr. that Victoria is still nice and cozy in my belly and won’t be coming out just yet. Indeed, he confirmed I still have time to run around like a headless chicken… nesting, nesting, nesting… LOL. I have a To Do list of like 1000 things to do at the house before Victoria’s arrival. No room for resting this last month, and oddly enough I’m so energized, though right now my feet, ankles and legs are pretty sore and swollen. Somehow I’m hopeful the darn list of things will be completely crossed out before baby arrives, but then there are times I’m not so sure, haha. What’s with psycho nesting mode us pregnant women go through in month #9?? I find it kind of funny after thinking about it… especially after Julio asked me today what the heck I was doing standing on the kitchen counters cleaning the cabinets top to bottom in my 9th mth. I realized it was a crazy idea, but I guess I have a bit of nesting OCD, and those things needed to be cleaned, even if Victoria will never notice, haha. I’m sticking to that.
Oh, I should mention I bought the new dishwasher, but of course luck would not be on our side and something happened with the order (placed 9 days ago), so who knows when they’ll deliver and install it. I hope it’s soon, cause I’m damn tired of hand washing dishes, et all. That’s about it for now, I hope to keep posting things here as we roll with Spring… busy times, and it’s definitely crunch time!! tick tock tick tock…
