Saying goodbye to May...

Last night I had the most vivid dream that I had my baby. I was calling everyone and telling them that Brynlee was here. People were visiting me in the hospital. I got to hold my precious baby for the first time. It was so wonderful and real. Imagine my disappointment when I woke up and realized that it was all just a dream and I still had about 7 weeks until that becomes a reality. I've dreamed several times already that I have had Brynlee, but none of them were as real or emotional as this. It just made me more excited for when that moment actually arrives. I really can't wait to hold my baby for the first time, to kiss her perfect face and hold her close.

I've been telling myself that if I could just make it through the month of May, I would be set. May was a rather uneventful and drawn out month for me. I didn't have much going on or much to look forward to. June, however, is packed full of all sorts of weddings and showers and other events to keep me entirely too busy, and I absolutely can't wait for all the distractions. Because once June is over, then July is here, and with it comes my sweet Brynlee.

Pregnancy has been becoming slightly more uncomfortable and tiring with each passing day. I find myself out of breath all the time. It's quite an effort to climb the stairs to my apartment. I'm finding it more and more difficult to get comfortable when I sleep, probably because I have a honeydew melon inside me. And so on and so forth. But I just think of the day I get to hold my baby and somehow it's all worth it. 47 days and counting...

I would walk 500 miles...

I recently downloaded a pedometer app on my phone because I have been so curious as to how much I end up walking at work. Last night was a pretty busy night, but when I finally checked my pedometer at the end of it, I was happy to discover that I had walked 3.8 miles. That's pretty crazy. I'm not sure how accurate my pedometer is, but atleast it's a ballpark figure.

On to other news in my life.... I am now 29 weeks pregnant and getting bigger every day. My sweet little Brynlee is kicking and moving all the time. I can't believe that I'm on the last leg of this pregnancy. I really can't wait to meet her. I'm so excited about my baby shower this weekend. It is going to be awesome!

My new love is for this website called Pinterest. It has literally become my drug. I can't get enough of it. It has become my online dream/idea/motivation board. It is soooo awesome. You have to request an invite to join, but they'll send you an email in about a week. Let me just warn you, it's fantastic for wasting hours of time.... everyday. :)

I'm going to attempt to knit a baby hat very soon. I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday to buy the yarn, and was very disappointed to not find the kind I was looking for. Joann's is definitely the place to go. They have about 6 rows of yarn. It's incredible. I'm hoping to stop by there after work today and find something awesome.

That pretty much sums things up. Stay tuned for updates on my ever increasingly interesting life. :)

Oh yeah....                                                        HAPPY
