Week 33

I am at the end of Week 33 and wish it were week 40.
For me, its has been more challenging to be pregnant while parenting full-time than working full-time. I never seem to get enough sleep or any down-time to reenergize myself.

To me, commuting back and forth to work or working in my office and meetings all day seem like a luxury right now b/c Emerson is just a non-stop ball of learning energy. I can't seem to satisfy her need for answered questions or activity.

I know this status is going to be temporarily worse when P2 is here, for obvious reasons.
And still, I am excited to meet P2 and have him/her outside of my body just to feel a little normal again.

I get so annoyed at "complainers" and so most of the time no one would suspect what I am feeling b/c I keep it inside and put on my "PR" face, but today I just have to get it off my chest. It is what it is. Today, I do not have the capacity to be perfect or my verison of it, anyway.

I usually write this blog while Emerson is taking a nap, but alas, she fell asleep for 10 minutes in the car on the ride home from the mall and would not go back to sleep once she got home. So, we are now having a napless day, which should be fun for all of us about dinner time.

Maybe today, Emerson can do the laundry while I take a nap? ;-)
Tired today, C
