I see a bright light!!!

Well it is finally here! Other than an occasional night of not getting much sleep I have slept great through this final trimester...until now that is. With a smidge more than five weeks to go I am constantly getting up to pee which I am pretty sure is because the baby has "dropped." The books I have read say that this usually only happens with your first child and not until you actually go into labor with your second or third...hmmm...I never "dropped" with Logan and this time I have! WIERD! Also, I am nesting like crazy...the computer is the only thing keeping me from going to crazy! And, my body is definitely getting into the prepared state. Not only am I getting used to waking up to pee, but I have been getting up and not being able to go back to sleep for a couple of hours. Last night I woke up to Logan crawling in bed with us at 4 and I didnt crawl back in bed until 6! WOWSERS! I will probably pay dearly for it today, but we will see. The reality is that if the books are correct and baby's tend to keep the same sleep patterns they have in the womb, then I am screwed! I have to lay down several times a day after drinking some juice to make sure she is still moving...I get very nervous, but she seems to sleep all day long. At night, it's like she is trying out for the olympic gymnastics team.! So I guess I better get used to functioning on very little sleep, and I am sure my husband would greatly appreciate it if I could keep a smile on my face and good attitude through it all as well! LOL
My plans for the day are to do a load of laundry, sterilize baby toys, and Logan's toys, and wash the couch cushion covers. That should get me through the day...hopefully. Tomorrow will be jam packed full as well as the rest of the week. Next week will be boring again, but hopefully I can keep finding things to do!
37 Days to go!
