Things are still going well. I've had bursts of energy these past few weeks, like the second semester crack kicked in late or something. Could this be the beginning of 'nesting'? Hmm, what else? I've also been noticing some heartburn, which is very different for me. I think I can count on my two hands how many times I've had heartburn in my life. Its probably the same amount so far within the last couple of weeks. A lot of people notice getting it after eating too much or a certain kind of food. I've been getting it when I've got an empty stomach and I'm hungry.
Work is still going great. I just got my first review. It went really well, like really really well. That makes me feel more secure about taking time off to have the baby. I still feel bad having gotten pregnant so soon after starting my new job, like that is the nightmare every boss tries to avoid. Which is really horrible that we have that view in America and our maternity benefits are the worst of almost every other country...but that is a discussion for another time! So I try really hard to do my best and often go above and beyond with everything I do, and it is a great feeling of validation to really be appreciated and acknowledged for it. I feel lucky about that. A lot of people feel under appreciated in their job, which often then de-motivates them. I know I've been there. It really speaks a lot of my boss too for giving me credit and acknowledging me for all I do.
The other day we went over to Mitch's moms house picked up three bags of baby clothes...CUTE stuff too! I looked at it, but haven't sorted yet. Okay, this isn't just my OCD coming out. I'm only going to be in the apartment for three months with the baby (its 1 bedroom and will be too small very soon), so I want to have out what I need (0-6 months?) and keep packed up the extras.
Sigh...it was a good week!
