I'm so sorry that I have been so bad at updating lately. I think my brain is in toddler survival mode and pregnancy survival mode. I am exhausted about 90% of the day! I feel like when I'm not chasing Mason around I'm doing laundry, dishes, vacuuming, etc….it never ends!
Brandon took the week off so we ended up enjoying some much needed family time together. We went to the Zoo on Monday and the beach for his birthday on Tuesday. We also imagined this amazing dinner at Fridays where Mason would be sang to sitting nicely in his chair but that was not the case! We ended up chasing him around the restaurant and I think he had a total of 5 minutes sitting down. We won't be going out to eat for awhile. ha!
Brandon's grandparents are also here which has been a HUGE help. Our house has been a disaster between toddler chaos and the outdoors coming indoors. His grandma helped me clean up each room while Wally helped Brandon organize the garage and paint the cabinets in our kitchen a brighter white. Brandon and Wally make a great team!
Today, Cheri and I got the last minute cleaning done for the house and made some food for tomorrow. I had kind of a scary spell this morning while cleaning! I was steaming the couches then went upstairs to get ready to meet some friends for lunch. All of a sudden I started feeling light headed and was having really bad chest and back pains. I noticed I started seeing black and white spots so went downstairs slowly to call for Brandon's grandma to get Brandon. He was next door and came over to see what was going on. I could have sworn I was having a heart attack with how bad my chest was hurting! Turns out I was having a bad asthma attack and it was cutting off a lot of my oxygen supply which was why I felt the need to faint. Luckily after some inhaler breaths and water I was finally better. SO SO freaky though! I wonder if that is a pregnancy symptom? Definitely haven't had an asthma attack in YEARS!
I am really excited for Mason's party tomorrow to see my family and friends. I feel like it's been forever since I've seen everyone. It will be nice to have some familiar faces around :) I am also looking a whole lot more pregnant now. A guy at the store today helped me put waters in my car after he saw me struggling. He said "You're pregnant you can't be lifting this stuff!" It feels good I'm looking pregnant and not just fluffy finally.
I also have a feeling this one is a boy even though my symptoms this time around are a lot worse. I am carrying a straight out belly just like Mace man! I'll have to post a pic next week so you can see how much it's grown. Hopefully after my doctor appt. I can announce the pregnancy finally too! I have just been a little nervous this time around. Have a great week everyone!
