21 Weeks

Hello 21 weeks. I haven't done the usual weekly 'research' about baby this week which is pretty odd since I'm usually obsessed with everything about the baby. I guess at this point I just figure it's growing. I started wearing real preggo pants this week...bought a pair of capris that have that big stupid thing that is supposed to go over the belly but just slides down mine. At least they're comfy...even if they're falling off.
I'm not doing a picture this week because I feel 'as big as a barn' as my grandma Wilma would say (about herself pregnant, not me). I've been feeling self conscious about being at the top of the weight gain chart for my height and weight at my last appointment. I'm nervous to get bigger than when I was pregnant with Micah...I only have 13lbs left to gain if I want to stay within that range. (Scream...why can't I just get over it?? Why can't I enjoy being pregnant and eating food and not comparing...especially if this is the last one...grr)
We looked at apartments on Saturday on the east side of Columbus...closer to Dusty's job and family. I think we found some we like. It's a 2 bedroom townhouse with a bathroom upstairs AND downstairs (YAY for the pregnant lady!). I am sad that it doesn't have a patio or any personal space outside...I guess we'll just be going to parks and not grilling. Hopefully this will only be for a year...then we can look for a house where we will be paying much less and have a backyard!
Church is another issue with moving. Since Dusty works nights it seems like the best option would be to find a Saturday night church. These are few and far between close to where we want to move. I really hope we can find a church that we can both go to on the weekend and ideally there would be a small group we could both go to as well. I am also hoping to find mom groups/women groups through church and just in the community so that I have more motivation to go out and be with people. I don't want to be stuck at home with two little ones 24/7...I'd go crazy!
Micah has been a handful this week...I'll blame those sharp teeth that have been growing in for the last couple of months...he runs around trying to eat his hands and grumpin. He fell out of his crib this week also...makes me a neurotic baby checker when I put him down for naps and bedtime.
Ok. That's all.
