I am so sick of not being able to sleep. I know, I know, once bb arrives I can forget what it is like to sleep a whole night through, but I should have a few more weeks to treasure sleep, right?
Every night I find myself up until 3am at least, tossing and turning. My huge tummy is piled on pillows, pillows on my back, between my legs, etc.
Poor Charlie, not only does he have to deal w/ the tossing, turning, sighing and all the pillows, but he’s still working (I go back on Monday) and is looking more and more tired every morning 
I have no idea how I am going to make it after Monday when I go back to work
My students thought I had mood swings before….they have no idea 
Getting Ready…
I am still packing my bags for the hospital. It would help if things I had ordered would come in faster! I have no idea what my hospital provides, so I am going on Karen’s list. I only have 2 nightgowns and both are nursing…I wonder if that is okay? Does anyone know what you actually deliver in?
Speaking of the hospital, I have decided to deliver at Mission Hospital. I go for the tour this Thursday. I have already pre-registered, just need to sign a form and fill out some Advanced Health Care Directive (scary!). That’s on my to-do this week. Tomorrow we go to a child care prep class at 9am, one on Jan 12–I think breastfeeding hehe (then bb shower after!!!) and then the final child birth (prob the most important one) on Jan 19….so bb be good and stay in until at least then!
I am still debating on what is better–having bb early, possibly induced labor if he doesn’t come early on his own, with a vaginal delivery, or letting him go to full term and having a c-section? I am terrified of the v birth….for so many reasons, but then again c-section is a major surgery. I also have noticed w/ my coworkers that v births seem to lose weight faster—anyone else have any idea?
I feel I have so much to prepare—Sam is moving here Jan 13, so Jan is a busy month. Jan 12 baby class, baby shower, clean up, Jan 13 Sam here, Jan 14 work, Jan 15 need to take off to take him to placement test, register for classes, bank, find a car, apt, etc. I am sure that won’t all get done in one day so will need to do it over that week. I hope bb can stay in and hang in there–I can’t imagine him having to drive me to the delivery

Everytime I read your posts, I’m amazed at how you keep it all together! I know you haven’t had much luck with enlisting Charlie’s help, but seriously, you need to delegate some tasks! That wedding to do list is exhausting even for *me* to read over!
i’m SO gonna need a wedding planner in the future.
is it stupid that i already know what song i’m gonna use for first dance? hehe.
oh by the way, sleep number bed is awesome!!! i dont have backpain
in the morning anymore!!! and i fall aslleep MUCH faster.
Save The Best for last by Vanessa Williams , would make a good wedding love song, don’t know what part you’d want to use it for, but if you haven’t heard it I can send it to you or just download it. And sweetie you need to take it easy now, maybe try to focus on less things at the same time. I know most of those things seem very important but you cant do everything on your own. IE bb and rest should take priority at the moment, not worrying about helping a friend move, or what songs to play at the wedding. Let Charley handle the helping move part at least…
luv ya <3
where’s my invitation? hahahaha =P
Guang Liang’s CDs are great.
I got a lot of ideas from the site but I haven’t actually registered yet. I probably should because I started making some of my own projects and I took pictures. I’m going to post it on my website though, too… here on xanga… hehehe!
Good luck with everything!
