I Want Sleep!

Well, the past few nights again it's been hard to sleep.  Not because of the kicking in my stomach or the spring that just so happens to be under my butt no matter which way I lay; but it's because of my wonder finacee taking up the bed.  He was on top of me all night.  Or, he was laying on his back and sticking out every and any appendage on my side of the bed.  I woke up at 2:30, belly off the side of the bed and the rest of me was teetering on the edge.  I had a knee in my back, an elbow at the nape of my neck and a snoring man that was so loud that I swore he would wake the dead. 

Let's just say....I was not amused.  

Oh, let's tell your pregnant girlfriend was hogging the bed when she finally wakes up.  C'mon...don't be stooopid.  She will kill you. 

So.  I'm looing for a new mattress.  We have a queen (I think?) and I think it's time to get a king.  We do have enough room now, especially once I'm no longer pregnant.  But now it's getting ridiculous.  I'm trying not to take up the whole bed but instead Greg is being the bed hog.  I really can't take it anymore.  Most days I wake up feeling more tired then before I went to bed. 
The mattress we have is a good one.  It was my late handicapped aunt's bed (she was a double amputee) and she didn't have it a long time before she passed.  I used it for 18 months at my dad's and then it went unused for about the same time.  Then once I moved in with Greg we brought it into where we're living now.  We had it since August and it's been working well.  However...the springs are starting to come loose, there are two divits where him and I lay and it makes noise. (that might be the box spring)  I have no idea how it gotten this bad so quickly.  Maybe too much bouncing?  (LOL)  We do have a problem with just plopping on the bed.  And so did my aunt Bonnie.  So maybe it's just wear and tear? 

All I know is that I need a new mattress and I need one now.  Because if I wake up to an knee trying to go up my butt one more time...someone is going to wake up in a lot of pain...and it won't be me.

It's Tuesday!  And you know what that means!  Peeectures!



I know I'm blocking my "belly" but that's because the baby was kicking and I didn't want to miss it.  I feel like I'm always hungry lately and that's starting to bug me.  I try to eat as filling things as I can but it doesn't always happen.

To me, I don't see myself as "big".  I just see "baby".  Maybe it's just the camera angle?  I'm not sure.  But from the side...I don't feel big.  But in the longer distance pictures I'm h-u-g-e.

However, it's a whole 'nother story when I look down.  I've always had a belly.  But for the last few years I lost weight and I would see my boobs before my belly.  Well, that's all changed.  My belly just sticks out.  (sorry the picture isn't the best)  I like looking at it.  To me, it's cute. 


Well, that's all for now.  I'm going to try to sleep since I got the bed to myself.
Until Next Time,
