The most interesting thing about this week was the EXTREME exhaustion I've been feeling. Like first-trimester exhaustion. I don't know if it's me, the baby or school stressors but I have been totally run down this week. I'm not really much of a coffee drinker at all, but I've been pouring a little cup each morning and then getting sweet/unsweet teas in the afternoon for an added afternoon kick.
I remembered this stage of pregnancy with Piper being full of energy and deep sleep. Of course, that was then and this is now and right now I am going to bed late after doing schoolwork, housework, packing lunches and waking up early to go to the hospital and deal with old men pooping in their beds and unhealthy fatso's who will be back in the hospital in a few weeks. At night Patrick and I collapse in bed and give each other a quick, tired smile before we fall asleep and then we do it all over again in the morning. Is this what it feels like to get older? To have a family? And responsibility? I'm thankful for it and would choose this job of Wife and Mother a million times over. But dang can it be tiring some times.
Anyways, where was I? Other than the exhaustion, this week has been great. No real changes, cravings or interesting updates.
