I feel like I've been either too busy or too exhausted lately to post, so here's a quick update: hot weather is hard when you're pregnant. It took me a couple days of feeling yucky and exhausted to realize that the heat was wiping me out. Now that I know, I can do a better job of staying hydrated and proteined and air-conditioned, and I'm feeling better! Oh, yeah, and as long as I'm complaining, my back hurts and I wake up every 1-2 hours and go to the bathroom at least 5 times a night.
I'm done cleaning the kitchen, have completed quite a few very needed organizing projects (the bathroom closet, Ellie's toys and clothes, and my clothes), and now I'm tackling cleaning the bathroom top to bottom. I can handle scrubbing down about one wall at a time, and then I get too light-headed and tired to continue, so this might take a while! (However, my two bleached and cleaned walls look really good, so that's motivating!)
We've done quite a few special summer events lately, like two parades, a beach day, and the Family Olympics at our church, so Ellie has had too many late nights and more treats/candy than I prefer. It's fun and special, but I worry about setting a bad precedent that will be hard to change. And it won't change soon: tomorrow we're going on vacation! My parents got us a time-share next to theirs up at Breezy Point in Brainerd for next week, so that will be a huge treat. Isaac will come up with us Friday through Monday, and then he'll come back and work so Ellie and I can keep living the good life!
