Sunny 9 for 2004 July 14 (entry 0)

(6) Wed Jul 14 2004 12:04: Julie is here to stay, at least for a while. Her room is way cuter than I could have decorated it. Plus, she has helped tremendously around the house cleaning- things that are hard for me to do at this point and that Aaron could care less if it was done. I can't believe how fast I run out of gas now. I have been doing errands and shopping with the girls, and I can only be on my feet for an hour and a half before my feet start throbbing. They aren't used to supporting all this weight gain. I can barely fit into shoes if at all. Just yesterday I wore Aaron's sandals to his softball game (btw his team won, and Aaron hit a home run).

And sleeping has become quite a challenge trying to get comfortable with this huge stomach in the way. Not to mention trying to switch sides every 2 hours in the night, and trying to roll myself off the bed to use the restroom a couple times a night too. You wouldn't think it would be that much trouble gaining those inches to your waist, but it really does make it harder to get around and do simple things like put on your socks and tie your shoes. All in all, I prefer this part of pregnancy any day to the first 20 weeks hands down. What misery. I am slowly adding to Lily's clothes stock. I have a ton of pink onesies. I think I need to branch out a little b/c all her clothes look the same- Carter's yellow duckie onesies and pink stripped onesies. I need to look more into purples and greens and blues and something other than onesies. I did get two really cute outfits in KS from a second hand store that were in excellent quality and adorable and cheap.

How fun to buy little pink clothes even if you wear yourself out doing it!

I recommend BabyGap.

We just got a 25% discount off anything from Erin, Jake's girlfriend b/c she works there, so I am going to scope it out this weekend.

I have already scopped. I managed to make it out of there alive and with the same amount of money.
