Easily, an entire 8 paragraph blog post could be written about all the woes of pregnancy.  Especially in the last trimester.  The aches and pains and worries and discomforts....A woman's constantly changing body and the tiny parasite closely associated with it are nothing to be trifled with.

In leiu of going in to great details of everything wrong with my life right now and why I am counting down the hours until I get my body back; I intend to instead focus on the positive- and list the many many good things I have going for me.

• awesome pedicure!  Feels good, looks good, is good for you!  happy way to pamper swollen feet

• eating chocolate pudding multiple times per day

• guzzling gatorade like there's no tomorrow (weird eh?  gatorade is my drink of choice these days)

• daily back rubs and foot rubs from my husband

• the cutest nursery on the block!  

• baby is happy and healthy, measuring "perfectly" and right on track

• I still get comments of looking cute (though I may not feel it anymore)

• co-workers go out of their way to help me with tasks like running down 3 flights of stairs to retrieve formula

• my hubby has mowed the lawn ALL summer- I haven't touched the lawn mower once
• having an excuse to eat at whatever time of day I feel like it. 

• friends and family are generously offering the use of their pool anytime 

we had trouble taking some underwater pictures due to my abnormal buoyancy
