Well today is not the best day to be pregnant. I spent so much time with my kids today and went more above than what I usually do to show them how much I loved them. Then when I put them down for a nap in their room I went into my room to fold laundry. Then I come out to find a chair by the area we keep our baking stuff, I also keep a permanent marker there to date food storage items well I run in their room to see what they got and they are covered in blue ink. Later on I notice that they have coloured on the living room wall and their bedroom door. I feel like crying and Sariah saying that the ‘m’s’ she drew on the wall is for mommy does not help. I think I should call JJ and warn him before he comes home.

Right now I am trying to just think of my baby as a tiny helpless newborn instead of what she might do at 2 and 3 years old. Sigh … I’ll just keep telling myself that there are much much more good days than bad.

I am officially now in the 3rd trimester. Still feeling fine so I feel blessed with the health and comfort I have had during this pregnancy.

I was feeling really annoyed after a WIC appointment I had a few days ago. The nutritionists weighed me and said that I had gained too much weight so smaller portions would be good. I have gained 23 lbs so far and many pregnancy articles say that 17-24 lbs is normal for this far into a pregnancy besides I gained 35 lbs the first two times and lost it all within 6 months of giving birth. Besides this lady doesn’t even know how big my meal portions are. I know its not something I should worry about and I’m not going to stop eating.

Sorry, I guess I’m feeling really negative today. I’ll stop blogging now. Maybe I should go take a nap – on the couch in front of Sariah and Rebekah’s room.

    Sorry to hear about the markers. :( Hopefully magic eraser or toothpaste can do the trick; I’ve heard about both of those working.

    Glad to hear you gained 35 lbs… I think I’m gaining weight faster than “typical”. Who knows!

    I have those days. I will be 30 weeks tomorrow, and I can feel the hormones starting to kick up again. But 3rd trimester is here, which means only 3 more months. Hopefully, your days will continue to get better.

    The nutritionists at WIC would have no job if they don’t find something wrong with what you are doing. I had a similiar experience. Sorry about that.
