I am 20 weeks pregnant today! YAYYYYY!!!! What a great event. Unfortunately this great event has been overshawdowed by the fact that I am sick as a dog!!! It has been going through our whole family. First my mother, then Alexis, then Kayla, then me and Eddie has only a few touches. It seems like I get the worse of everything with this poor confused pregnant body. I was so miserable last night that I actually cried. My nostrils were completely closed, I mean completely. Looking in the mirror I could see how both sides were swollen and pressed together. I could not breathe out of my nose at all. Everything that I did brought on only temporary relief then it was back to not breathing. I considered sleeping in the bathtub if I could ensure that the water would stay nice and warm all night. I finally got to sleep around 2:30 am. I took Sudafed PE, and it must have taken like an hour before it actually started working.

Today the girls are still a bit sick, but much better, and I am still miserable. There is so much that needs to be done, yet I am too sick and tired to do anything! I just want to get better!!! This is my 3rd sickness of the season, and I am tired of it.

On a positive note, I am soooo happy to be 20 weeks!! I am starting to feel the pressure of needing to get things done. YIKES! We have so much to do to our house here before the new house is ready. I went to talk to the builder yesterday and go over a few things, and I got to see another home like ours that is just about complete. I can’t wait. I know we will really love it. There will be so much more living space. It is going to be fun picking out all the things to make our home our home, cabinets, light fixtures, floors, doors, etc. I really really cannot wait! The builder is awesome too, he knows that we are expecting and says that he can work with our timeline. He still predicts that it can be done by June. That gives us around 4 months to get this place together and sale it. We can do it! We just need that first big boost to get us going. I hope to have that soon after I get over this latest cold.

Well, it’s nap time!
