Hormones

Wow, are they strong. Lance said I had a big grimace on my face earlier and for the past couple of hours I have been on the verge of tears for no reason. Well, no reason but hormones...

My body keeps moving forward, getting ready for Parker. I keep on being able to check off new and exciting "pre-labor" symptoms off of the list. Contractions are getting stronger and stronger. However, at this rate, I don't think her birthday will be 060708. Ah well, she'll survive. And so will I.

Got the final tester pack of diapers. Now we have 4 types to try. Hopefully one of the cheaper, environmentally conscious ones won't leak. We'll see.

Had fun painting a little today, doing a concept sketch for the birth announcement that Aunt Barbie is making (thank God!). Watercolors are very pretty and very soothing. Now I just need to learn how to draw/paint anything that doesn't look like a 12 year old did it and I'll be set with a new hobby. In the mean time, I'm making a relaxing mess.

Mostly glad Parker hasn't come yet. Have 23 costumes to sew this weekend for the middle school production of Julius Caesar. That sounds like a lot, but they are VERY simple. Still, I can't honestly say they'd get done if Parker was here! I wonder if she's really going to wait until the 19th so that I can get through all the scheduled end-of-year performances. Who knows...

Gonna try a little belly dancing to loosen up the ol' pelvis for an easier birth. In the mean time, I think I'll take a nap.
