Week 5

This has been a really busy week. Wow. Tired and have no energy. We went to Fbx on Friday and shopped forever. It's really amazing how much you can spend on clothes for kids. I find it depressing that I bought three items of clothes a few things of makeup for me and the rest of the hundreds spent was clothes for the kids. Oh well. I also really want them to have nice clothes and not look shabby.

Weak 5:

What I love:We went to the park this week with the kids and we are going to the circus this next week. I love doing fun things with my kids. Making memories with them and making even a simple trip to Fairbanks a spectacular adventure. I love being able to sleep a lot. Even though I also hate how tired I am. Building a human is intensely exhausting. 

What I hate: I had a bit of a panic attack last night thinking about late pregnancy. The sensation of your body completely taken over by something else, is not pleasant to me. I hated not being able to move and everything being difficult and even sleeping sucking. I was like, "ahhhhh! I don't want toooOOO!" But then I talked myself off the ledge and things were once more OK. 

What I miss: Nothing. :) 

What I’m looking forward to the most: Being finished with the process of having kids. 

Worries: Labor. What's not to worry about? How bad is it going to be this time? How much is it going to hurt?  Etc. etc.. YEP. Still. Though I had some worries about cramping this last weekend. It's always in the back of my mind that I could have another ectopic and really have major issues, and especially this time because I haven't had an early ultrasound. 

Symptoms: Very tired and an intense  sense of smell. 

Mood: Not bad. A little short here and there, but not anything out of the ordinary. 
  

Sleep: Excellent. 

Movement: Not for many moons. 

Bra Size: Barely an A. 

The belly (and the button!): Other then the stretched out skin from last time. It looks great. :) 

Wedding rings on or off: On of course. 

Weight: 142! Woohoo! The clean eating is paying off! 

Measurements: Chest: 35 Waist: 28.75 Midsection: 32 Hips: 39 Thighs: 21.25 Same. 

Exercise: Doing fine still, though I'm a bit depressed at how slow I am at running at the moment. I would love to be able to run a couple races this summer, but I just don't have the stamina that I have normally. I've been doing 8:00 - 8:30 min miles and last winter it was 7:10 - 7:30 min miles. Oh well. I keep reminding myself, it doesn't matter how fast I am as long as I'm still active. 

Eating: Doing pretty good, though going to the Drive In and fairbanks, kind of derailed a couple days. But I'm keeping it under control.
