A tired, lazy post.

I. AM. SO. TIRED.  Seriously.  Exhausted.  This little peanut baby has been stealing all of my energy.  The house is A MESS.  There are boxes everywhere.  Nothing on the walls.  Mountains of laundry.  Crap cluttering every possible surface.  Ugh.  This is no way to live!  But seriously, during my free time...all I do is lay around.  I'm not tired enough to sleep, but I'm far too tired to clean.

I have every intention of blogging more frequently.  But my computer is in the cold basement.  Not very inviting after a long day.  Since Andy is out for the night, I stole his laptop and I'm trying to catch up on blogs and Facebook posts.

Anyway, in a brief, bulleted fashion, here is what is up with me:

1.  New house = major problems.
2.  I'm having crazy heart palpitations and chest tightness.  Most likely due to hormones and stress.  EKG, Echo, and Holter monitor scheduled on Tuesday.
3.  Isla had her EEG today...I'm praying for good results!
4.  This pregnancy is far harder than my first.  I swear I'm having a boy.  Although I'm secretly hoping for another girl.  But it will totes be a boy.  I just know it...and I'll obviously be insanely happy either way!  Plus I think I like our boy name a little more than I like our girl name.  
5.  Isla is a daredevil/crazy child.  She will climb up anything.  I am in the bathroom for 30 seconds and come out to find Isla on the dining room table.
6.  VBAC vs repeat c-section.  Yikes.  Terrified of both.  Can I somehow burp up this baby?  Or poop him out?  These truly sound like better options.

I'll elaborate more in future posts.  Right now, it's time for bed!

Hang in there, hopefully the pregnancy will get easy once you get out of the first trimester. And boys are so much fun... but I totally think you are having another girl. As for the house, try not to stress over it because for now you just need to focus on Isla and getting yourself all the rest you can. The house will come together in time.

I will be praying that Isla's results come back good and that your tests also prove that everything is okay and it is just stress related.

Keep us posted and take care of yourself, that beautiful little girl and that little peanut baby!

Going through all of those changes while being in the early part of pregnancy can't be fun. You're lucky that you don't have to battle going to work and dealing with morning sickness, so you've got that on your side. Anywho, I'm sure everything is fine and that it's stress-related. Stress can really do a toll. It's good that you're getting it checked out, though (I'm assuming those tests are safe for pregnant ladies??). Anywho, good luck and I'm anxious to hear the good news about Isla's tests. Also looking forward to catching up on the happenings of the B-A-I-T-FB (FB = fetus baby) family.

Yay for the update! Sorry to hear you're so exhausted and have so much going on. Hopefully little peanut baby gives you some energy, and Isla slows on her daredevil moves for you. :)

Oh, and #6 totally made me belly laugh.

Seriously, could you be hit with anymore bullshit? That sucks buddy. All of it. I hope your tests all come back normal, yours and Isla's.

Ok, funny thing is that I wouldn't ever find out the sex of my baby, and wouldn't ever tell people any baby names before he or she was born, YET... I am obsessed and so anxious to find out what you're having, and what you'll be naming your little peanut.

How big of a hypocrite am I??! ;)

Sorry pregnancy, and basically life is kicking you in the ass lately. Let's hope things start to shape up once you're out of the first trimester.

Are you showing yet?
