In the final stretch....

Well, I guess you could say we have finally hit the last stretch. I have just over one more month to go before Mr. Andrew makes his appearance. I'm so very ready for that day. It is unbearably hot here. It hasn't budged from the 110's this whole entire week. To say I'm miserable is putting it extremely mildly. I'm always exhausted, I can't get back to sleep if I wake up after about 5 or 6 am, the heat drains me even more, and I'm still on swings so I usually work until at least 8 or 9 at night. And yes I will be working right up until the day I have the baby. I'm seriously considering taking leave the week prior to my due date just so I don't have to waddle my way into work at the hottest time of day. Especially since it will probably be hitting the 120's by that time. I have started running out of ideas for things to do with Alexus. She wants to go play outside in the kiddie pool so very badly and I feel really bad that I just can't handle going out with her.  I think we might start doing an indoor pool type thing and just give her a cool bath instead..

On another note... I'm kinda excited about this weekend. I only work 3 days this week. 4 day weekend for July 4th. One of my best friends is getting married on the 4th and I wish I could be there. But it's taking place in Virginia so I'll definitely just have to miss out.

The other girls at my job are also getting close to their due dates. One is a week or two behind me and another is another week or two behind her. Another is due in December and yet another I'm unsure of her due date. My friend back home is due shortly after me as well. Another friend who lives here is due closer to the end of the year as well. Maybe October or November. Both times I have been pregnant, a lot of people I'm close to have been pregnant as well. Oh and there is another girl I went to basic with who was induced today. I just can't keep track of how many people there are having babies right now :P

Well... I'm exhausted and my brain is everywhere right now while I'm sitting here at work. About to fall asleep at the computer. So... I'm going to go try to find something productive to do...like update the registry or something.
Hope y'all are having a great day! And Happy Independence Day a little early :D
