We are going out of town this weekend to see a comedian named Jim Gaffigan. I am excited! It's so strange to think that we will not be able to pick up and go so easily anymore... I mean we always have the dogs to think about, but they are pretty easy... Why can't babies be crated again? I kid, I kid.
I was telling my friend recently that I couldn't wait til about a month after giving birth for my life to go back to normal. I guess I should have said body, because my life will never be the "normal" I know again. It is SO strange to think about!!! BUT I was reading about postpartum body issues and I had no idea they were so plentiful. Contractions while breast feeding? Sounds fantastic. I won't get into all the other gross details to spare the boys and, well, everyone. I didn't want to read about them all but I felt I had to since they will be happening to me. I hope it's true what people say that once Skylar is here I won't think about the other crap. ha But boy do I wish boys had the fun job of giving birth.
Again, I was never the type that "always dreamed" of getting married and having babies. I am excited, don't get me wrong, but also I just have no idea what to expect! We never pined for kids... When I was talking about the layout of our house - which is PERFECT for dogs and in home boarding but not at all ideal for a family - the person I was talking to said "What a nice way for it to happen rather than the other way around". That stuck with me because I can't fathom having that maternal need for a baby only to have it never come true. This way is better. :)
Anywho! Enough babble... Happy Wednesday peeps!
