Where is the time?

I am so behind on my blogging. I've had lots of ideas but just never get to sit down and write! What's this job-thing? It happens every day and never goes away... when am I supposed to dedicate myself to my hobbies?
Oh well. I'll give you a quick update and then hope for a very blog-ful weekend.
My belly is bigger and bigger (photo coming). It's actually VERY big. People are starting to give me looks... you know the kind that says: I can NOT believe how big you are.
Uhm, I don't like to be looked at like that, but I understand. I am big. This baby is just taking up lots of room. I'm still feeling well, only breathing is getting harder and my feet are swelling. That's not painful but just very ugly. I touch my ankles and then have to look, because they just don't feel like my feet! I do drink a lot, which is supposed to help but I guess I don't sit with my feet up enough. I guess I'll have to improve on that. It's not bad to "have to" relax :)
I'm really tired though, every night. Digby is always ready to go for a walk, when all I want to do is lie down. We disagree on our priorities... but I do end up walking him because if I don't, I will have to endure an antsy dog, who in his "quiet" times likes to pace the house up and down. "Antsy" is not even sufficient to describe what he does when he has too much spare energy.
Last weekend I had my wonderful baby shower, organized by my wonderful mother-in-law. It was just great.. and quite touching. I got a ton of stuff and I still have a hard time believing it's all for my baby. Maybe I'll take a few pictures of the things I got... CUTE, I'm telling you!
I'm off to bed now, it's 9.30 pm after all! ;)

oh, dinka, I'm so excited for you!

for the swelling, yes, elevate your feet as much as you can. A tall glass of water and lying down on the left side seems to fix a lot of stuff too (better venous return that way)

SO EXCITED!

Pictures? Did someone say pictures?

Are you agile enough to take a picture of yourself and put it online all while keeping your feet up? Oh, wait, that's what Lincoln is for. :-)
