swollen feet and swimming pools

We had a fabulous weekend! Tyquon was able to go stay with his mom for the weekend, and it was such a nice break for us. We went out without worrying about a babysitter! It was amazing! The weather was insanely hot this weekend, it got up to 95 degrees yesterday, i know, crazy right? So we were able to swim in our pool for the very first time without freezing our butts off! :) And let me tell you... the swimming pool is a God sent when it comes to being pregnant and swollen! I was so hot and cranky, and it felt so good to cool off and float around in our backyard! When i got out of the pool, my feet were back to their normal size too! That didn't last long, but still, it was very exciting!

My wonderful husband's birthday is this Thursday, so I've got to think of something special to do for him. Some friends of ours offered to babysit, so we'll be able to have a nice dinner together. I'm looking forward to it, he deserves the very best.

I can definitely tell Joshua is running out of room in my belly. He's moving around all the time, which i really love. Jude is so cute about it too... it's really a special time for us. The invitations for my first baby shower went out last week, and my sister out did herself this time! Just the invitations are amazing! It's so much fun! I can't wait to find a cute outfit to wear to it! I found out last week that the people at my work want to have a little baby shower for me as well, so that's really nice of them.

I only have about three more weeks left of work! Woohoo! At the end of this week, I'm going to be training my replacement. Dr. Lawton even told me, if I need to leave a couple days earlier, just let her know! I love that! I'm really looking forward to being able to stay home, and "nest" for a couple weeks before the baby decides to join us. I'm getting to be pretty pathetic when it comes to being able to do things around the house. I mopped the floor yesterday, and my back ached, and I was out of breath by the end of it... so sad! Something that used to be so easy... weird huh?

I just talked to Jude, and he said he's going to get in the pool :( I'm so jealous! only about a half hour longer, and I get to go home too.

I hope you all have a splendid Monday! :)
