My week has been filled with midterms, acid reflex, a cold, the need for a nap, and a lack of a husband. Jeff has been working so hard this semester (he's off track, which means he starts back to school in January- our school is weird) trying to build up our back account before he has to cut back on hours at his job once school starts. I am so thankful that I married such a hard working man. I tell him to quit almost everyday because I rarely get to see him. I go to school/work at 8:00 every morning and get home and 5:00 every afternoon. On most days he leaves for work here at 4:00 and doesn't get home until 1:00 in the morning! We just barely miss eachother and it is so sad. But we are making it work and I am pretty proud of him for not giving into my persuasion. However, he has agreed to cut back to 3 eight hour days per week once school starts, which will be glorious. I can't wait.
On the subject of the baby- it is growing. Hence the 11 lbs that I got to see on the doctor's scale the other day. It is a very hard realization for me to see the numbers higher than I've ever seen them before while I've been busier than ever and eating less than normal. (I rarely feel hungry- I basically have to force myself to eat because I know that I need to & on top of it nothing ever sounds or tastes good.) With all this I am still gaining weight and my pants are tighter than ever. I try to remember that this is all normal but it is still so hard for me to get used to it. I think it will get better once I have a "baby bump" to show for it all and not just a fatter stomach. Haha, but seriously.
To everyone- I will take pictures when I'm ready. I do not want anyone to throw up to the sight of my non-cute-bump. So just hold your horses. Hopefully the pictures will come within the next two months.
Also, mark your calendars- we find out if we have a little Jeff or a little Karli on November 18th! Ah! I can't wait <3
