30 for 30

We have 10 weeks left and I am wildly unprepared in some ways. When I was pregnant with Eli I'm pretty sure by now I had his nursery done, extra meals frozen, diapers stockpiled, and the house spick and span. We have a baby sprinkle in 4 weeks so I'm leaving some of the nursery until then, but really I'm just taking a break. I haven't even registered at the hospital yet. Eli takes up a lot of my energy and just when I get the couch shampooed he "helps" me "clean" by pouring milk all over it and rubbing it around. I'm not mad, but I'm not about to scrub the floors either knowing a) the baby will not be on the floor for a bit and b) it's going to get messy in 2.7 seconds. I do clean and clean and clean, but it's neverending. I also packed my hospital bag and Eli's overnight bag just in case. I freaked out a little the other day thinking my water was about to break because seriously I felt just like I did when my water broke with Eli

Ok- I'm ready to stay home and be a couch potato now. We just got back from Wyoming and it was marvelous. Josh and I had a date and I filled up on the best chili rellenos around (not authentic at all, and it's delicious), we took Eli to the Wyoming Dinosaur Center and he has been inseparable from Deano his Dinosaur ever since (named by Papa), and we spent a whole day up at the mountain where Eli fished and rode four wheelers. It was great seeing so much of our family and Eli has been asking to go to Grandma's house since we've been back. Since moving out, going to Denver, moving in, and going to Wyoming I'm beat. We have another full week and are pretty much on the go until July 5th. The good news is this pregnancy is flying by and Eli has been (mostly) happy as a clam.  Anias: Week 26 Baby’s size: Butternut squash Symptoms:  stretch marks, swelling, sciatic nerve pain, popping hips, numb feet Cravings:  hot dogs, cheddar pizza- and I finally got to eat sa
