I have now officially entered month 8 of pregnancy. I literally feel like I have been pregnant for years. This has been a super uneventful pregnancy week. I guess that could be a good thing. Other than a growing belly there is no new news to report. I had to buy new t-shirts because my belly has been hanging out of the bottom of mine! Some of the best advice I can offer is just go buy bigger clothes. Nothing beats big baggy clothes when you already feel huge. No sense in wearing tight uncomfortable clothes.
This is day (no one even knows anymore), of quarantine and social distancing. I am still working from home. I’m still surprised at how fast the weeks are going by. I still think it is because I’m so busy at work and the work days fly by which is making the weeks fly by. It is going to be weird when I’m not working 9-10 hours a day. The regular eight will feel like a breeze! I am enjoying wearing comfortable clothes 24/7. I go into the office about every other day to drop stuff off/pick up new stuff and it’s weird having to get myself together. I haven’t done anything but blow dry my hair in over three weeks. I used to say I would never want to work from home, but I’m actually okay with it right now. When this is all over a few days or even one day a week from home work be nice, even though I know that won’t happen. A girl can dream.
It stormed pretty bad the other night and it made our gate to the fence open (which I obviously wasn’t aware of). I went to let hunter in and he wasn’t there. So then I discovered the gate. Luckily as soon as I walked to the front of the house I seen him. Just imagine an 8 month pregnant lady in her pajamas, no bra, house shoes, running after a dog that probably can’t see me coming and defiantly cannot hear me yelling his name. Happy Thursday morning!
Mason still moves 24/7 and has big movements to where my whole stomach moves. I hit Mya in the head a few times a week with my stomach. She’s just at a perfect height to be right there. I’m always like “whoops, bubby bumped you again!” and she just giggles. Speaking of Mya Moo…
Mya has been talking so much more! She actually talks to herself now when she’s playing, which she has never done. She hums along to songs to the tune even though she isn’t saying the actual words. Again, this is something she’s never done. I’m still thinking she is loving this quarantine. I’ve been really trying to work with her and make sure we are counting or doing colors or some type of learning when we are playing. I hate that she is missing school, but I honestly feel like since she’s been home she’s been talking way more. It seems like every day she’s saying a new word!
