25 Days left and counting

Now, I know it has been like MONTHS since my last post, but really I can sum it all up in one word.
TIRED!!!
The only reason I am actually blogging right now is because my beautiful, thoughtful husband got me a lap top with wireless connection for Mother's Day. I used to poo-poo this fake holiday (it falls into the same category as Halloween and St Valentine's Day), I now think its a great day and am already looking forward to next year for an even more extravagant present.
Quick update on the light-of-my-life AKA my daughter. She's is running around and has a vocabulary of nearly 30 words. Very clever indeed. The running around is a bit scary sometimes, though, as I discovered last Friday night when, for no apparent reason she decided to run hell for leather straight into a concrete wall. I was watching her do it but was helpless to stop it. It was freaky how - as soon as she bounced off the wall, a little bright blue dot appeared on her forehead that, before my very eyes, grew to the size of an egg. I was home alone and freaked and tried to hold an ice pack on my hysterical baby's head - without much luck. Anyway, today the bump nearly non-existent and the bruise has turned a highlighter green. Lovely.

Now, to my impending delivery due date. While it is rapidly approaching, I CAN'T WAIT. These are the main reasons why.
1) I fucken hate maternity clothes. They are ugly, expensive and all in boring colours.
2) I can't wait to take a deep, long breath.
3) I'm sick of going to the toilet every 30 minutes.
4) My back hurts.
5) All my ligaments hurt.
6) I'm sick of people guessing what sex the baby will be based on how big my ass is.

But, the best reason is I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THIS BABY. I'm really excited and feel so blessed. Ohhhhhh.

Time to get some sleep. (sleep? What's that again???) My little toddler is in the land of nod, and I just know that as soon as I doze, she will be calling out MAMA DADDDDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Ahh, the joys!
