journaling

So I'm only 4 months pregnant and I swear I already feel
about 7 months. I finally got over that tired, nauseas state
and then felt really good for about a month. Now, I feel
bloated all the time and pretty uncomfortable. My stomach
is sooooooooooo tender when I walk, when I touch it, when I
turn over, you name it. Very strange. I'm not sure if this is
just what a second pregnancy feels like since my uterus is
just trying to figure things out again or what. I'll check it all
out at my next appointment. Believe me there are no
complaints here though. I just need to write these things
down because I swear I don't remember feeling this way last
time. Of course every pregnancy is different, but sometimes
I wonder if with the last one I didn't notice as much since I
was working and I didn't have time to think much about it.
Who knows. I'm so grateful to even be pregnant and will take
it how it comes.
It's so crazy to me that it's already Christmas Eve and in two
days all this craziness will be over. I just love this time of year
and I am excited for today. We get to go to my parents house to
go sledding/tubing today which will be really fun and then do our
traditional Christmas program and nativity with the grand-kids.
Then we'll do all our $1 and white elephant gifts and open presents
from my parents. Then we are meeting up with Joe's family and
going Christmas caroling to all of the families they've sung to for
many many years. It will be a crazy day, but I love it all. Family
is the best and I love mine so much. I hope you all have the best
holiday!!
