holy naval orange batman!

holding that orange while taking these pictures was kinda surreal. it's so much more substantial then the fruits that came before. i guess that's how it will be from here on out. evan actually asked the other day how i was going to handle it when we got to the week of the watermelon, and honestly i have no idea!

i'm still feeling really good these days, with the exception of passing the heck out at the end of the day. i mean like no recollection of anything after my head hits that pillow. it's intense! the past two days i've been waking up quite a bit during the night though because it's starting to get a little odd figuring out a new favorite sleeping position. i've been a life long stomach sleeper and that is no longer an option. in addition to that i have to start practicing not sleeping on my back as well. i guess once i'm a bit larger there is a chance that your uterus can squish a big ol' artery when you lay on your back. so that leaves me with side sleeping, which is generally ok, but i have to switch sides often. just par for the course i suppose.

i'm kinda big time excited for this weekend. i purchased this little shed for our backyard, and this weekend evan and his bros will be assembling it for me (such an amazing fam i've married into). my plan is turn it into an outdoor workroom so that i can get most of my gear out of the house. i can make quite a mess in here, and with a little one on the way we need all the space we can get right now! annnnd, while the boys are doing that i think i'm going to paint the little beans room!!! i'm so stoked to get started on that, and painting is the necessary evil that must come first. oh and don't worry, i'll be very careful with lots of ventilation, and rest breaks mixed in there too. gotta do everything with extra caution these days :)

so hopefully all these plans will go off without a hitch and i'll have lots to share on monday. have a great weekend friends!!!
