my little neice payton wondering where her baby is:)

Uncomfortable.that is the key word i have for my starting week #35...no matter where i sit how i lay or how i put my feet up,its just not quiteee where it needs to be for me to be comfortable.even walkin is uncomfortable these days cause i never know when that child is gana push down on my bladder or just push on my belly and make it extrememly difficult not to waddle!..i have decided not to worry about the amount of sleep i get in the morning(for some reason thats the only time i can sleep without waking up-probably cause i aint hardly gotten any sleep during the night) so i have been sleeping in very late-and i have decided it is ok!cause at night i cant sleep either because i cant get comfortable,the babies moving around,i have to pee,my husband is snoring,or im snoring and i think its my husband snoring,both of which i wake up,or im thirsty and i dont wana get out of bed so i lay tehre and think about how thirsty i am...its a mess really:)poor matt..hes had few nights that he gets a full nights rest as well due to my wiggleing around or my grunting while tryin to get out of bed or my jumping back into bed or my snoring:)no worries folks i am not complainnig-i find it quite humerous!:)
i do feel as though i have been super grouchy lately-i think just cause of how i feel...ive been on edge quite a bit-0my husband would be the first to agree with this.i try not to take it out on him..btu by not taking it out on him i just dont talk and thats just as bad i think he would say...maybe not:)
the baby has gotten hicups every night for the past i dont no how long-and they just go on and on and on...its such an odd feelingat first i enjkoyed it,now i usually try to make it stop...
ive been getttin odd little pains here and there and everytime im like oh my what if this is it(given the fact that i dont no what "it" feels like) but so far no trips to the hospital..mom says its just getttin ready to come out,tahts why i keep feeling these things.
yesterday i made a list of who all to send birth announcements/christmas cards to this year..now i just need to get all the adresses typed out and put in the computer.which will be a good feeling once i can get that done
ANY DAY NOW my sister in law wil be having her baby boy..oh i cant wait-i think just being able to see him wenever and hold him and all will make the next month go by super fast:)
5 weeks-and every night i pray "lord prettyyy pleeaasseeee let the baby come out early:)" im not planning on it,but boy would that be nice:)
i keep thinkin of little things that need to get done before baby arrives...yesterday i cleaned the baby tub i bought on ebay:) matt needs to hang up a shelf by the changing table ad id like for him to fix the closet door in the baby room,i wna clean out the truck like its never been cleaned out before-and then store the stroller in there,and put the carseat in there as well....and things keep popping in my head...
on another note..i thought my dog was in heat a few weeks ago but i beleive i was wrong..im prety sure she is NOW in heat..and it is the most anoying discutsting thing ever...she is constantly licking herself:( yesterday she started humping my slipper!! it makes me sooooo angry!!this to shall pass..i hope!!!

well this blog is kinda gone everywhere-so im gana go start on the truck...
5 weeks...5 more weeks-remember my prayer Lord:) lets make it 3:)
