So, I'm sitting here...waiting for all that energy and nesting shit to kick in. It's about that time, right? You start getting further along and then your body lets you know that you should really start getting ready for this human that has resided in your body for what feels like forever. Yeah, not happening yet. Instead, all I can think about is wishing I could take a nap and then, when it's time to go to bed at night, all of a sudden I become an insomniac ..laying, tossing, turning. Preparation for long nights with a newborn, I suppose.
There is a low iron issue, so maybe once I get a few more iron pills under my belt, my energy will pick up.
But, I pulled into the driveway after my Drs appt today and just sat there...thinking of how much effort it takes to get myself moving.....

Speaking of the Dr, every two weeks, I have been getting up, rushing around, making breakfast, getting Madeline and myself ready, hopping in the car...and for what? To be asked how I'm feeling, get my belly measured and the heartbeat checked. I'm going to be honest and say I could do this at home...and if you're on your 3rd kid, maybe you should have that option. I can tell that the Dr almost feels bad for this 5 minute visit because he sits there and tries to find things to talk about after. And I've got nothin...I'm pregnant, I'm tired, I'm huge. I probably seem super anti-social at the Drs, but in reality, I'm kind of glad it is done and over with in 5 minutes because there is a very small time frame where a two yr old will sit in the chair next to you like this.....

They were super impressed that she said they were taking my blood pressure. Thank you, Doc McStuffins Dr kit.

I've been in a wicked mood lately. Can you tell? My poor guys....they come home from work and school and I'm usually trying to find something to pick at them about. It's come to the point where I think they're trying to direct attention on one another and away from themselves. Survival mode.

And the Pinterest meal last night was..... Cheesecake Factory Copycat: Sundried Tomato Fettuccine. It was a lighter version, so it didn't taste exactly the same...and I'll be honest, my pregnant taste buds were a little bit let down. But, it was good because there was not much guilt, especially since I substituted veggie fettuccine for the real deal.  
Here it is....

That little piece of spinach off to the side in the first picture is driving me nuts, but oh well. I really am too hungry to care in the heat of the moment...meaning right before I eat.

I'd make it again.
