Damn this short, unforgiving body

I'm loving these aquatic fitness classes. I'm working everything, getting my heart rate up, feeling the burn, all without feeling the weight of this monstrosity that is becoming my belly and there's no sweating when you're in a cool, indoor pool. I definitely feel it the next day, so I know it's good stuff.
The downside...you know how hungry you get after you have been swimming? Multiply that by 1,000 when you're exercising AND pregnant. I come home and want to eat like a teenage boy that just got home from school. Definitely challenging my self control, as I crack open a hard boiled egg like starved maniac and grab the hummus and carrots when I really want to shove some cookies and a squirt of whipped cream in my mouth. Damn this short, unforgiving body...why must you always get in my way of pigging out?!!

Check this out, my belly is about an inch away from interfering with my driving....
I look miserable in this picture...I promise I'm not. 


So, my son and husband are both tornadoes as they get ready to leave in the morning...Joshua more than Anthony. I basically lay in bed and stay out of their way because it's damn stressful to watch. Well, I came down this morning, after Joshua had left, and there was a bakery box on the damn kitchen floor, cologne on the island, deodorant on the counter, a wet towel on my clean clothes...so naturally, I'm fussing at him out loud. Well, Madeline walks into the kitchen with a confused look and says, "Mommy, Josh at school". Ha, thanks, kid, Mommy really needed that reality check.

Well, now I'm off to combine all the best tips off these spring cleaning lists that I see on Pinterest to make one mega spring cleaning list!! Nesting?! Nah, I'm totally making myself do this. It needs to be done. Cleaning, straghtening, all that jazz I will have no time for once I have a newborn and toddler on my hands.


Hopefully I'll have an Easter bunny picture to upload tonight. She seems excited and we have been chatting about it all day, as I show her pictures that our friends have posted on facebook of happy, little children sitting on EB's lap. She wants to wear her Easter bonnet and princess dress, so maybe it will happen? Or we'll just waste 45 minutes driving to the mall for her not to go anywhere near. We shall see!

"I wear my bonnet for Easter Bunny!"
