9 weeks tomorrow

...and this pregnancy is harder on me in sooo many ways than my first. I'm so much more tired (at least I think I am, maybe I just don't remember how tired I really was with Drew), I'm feeling "puffy" around the middle, despite the bump, it just isn't hard, I'm quite squishy (cute, right?), and I'm soooo much more moody. With Drew, I was NEVER moody. I had a complete break down today because when I wiped off Drew's highchair tray, I got his food all over the floor, the clean floor that I had JUST finished wiping down. I hysterically cried for about 5 minutes until I finally told myself to just chill out. Psycho! This morning I felt horribly queasy (thankfully I still don't have morning sickness) and I was late for work due to reasons you don't care to hear about. I know it could be worse but I'm just stressed out and tired, I feel like my house is never as clean as I want it to be, I try really hard to make sure I give Drew enough attention, and I just want a freakin' nap! Not to mention, I'm at work 7 hours each day. Mike tries to help but I'm OCD to the point that I would rather him not, if that makes sense. And if he doesn't do it how I would do it, I get annoyed (which has always been the case because I'm insane, but I think it is intensified these days) I'm pretty much a mess. Pray for me!

Adi,

You'll be fine. Maybe you should go running with Mike. I'm sure that would help to ease some of your frustration and it would help to clear your head. Grab Drew, put him in a stroller and jog.

The other thing you can do is send Mike to live with us for the next 216 days.

You're welcome.

Love,
Tim

David had to teach me to know when my hormones were kicking in so that I would not take myself so seriously during the "wave." One day at a time, girl. Maybe it's a girl, and that differences of her hormones are doing a number on you. I was nauseated for John Paul and had the complexion of a 15-year old boy for Therese.

Poor Adi! I don't think I've ever seen you so worked up! Poor mike! Just kidding I'm sure it's not that bad.
