36 weeks Today

Well, I finally got a stroller and car seat for Warrior 4.  It was used but still looked new.  I found it on craigslist.  =)  A hundred for both.  I think that's a steal!    Anyway, I feel more at ease now that we actually have a car seat for Warrior 4.  Otherwise we can't take him home from the hospital.  

Twenty two days after the "BEBE" shower and still people are apologizing that they were not able to make it at the shower and that they have stuff for me and baby!  One of them, a talented photographer in my ward,  Natalie Norton  offered to take  pictures of Warrior 4.  I can't say no to that!  Shoot Balut!   Another Aunty offered to buy Warrior 4  diapers and so forth.    Amazing!  I feel  special and loved!

Anyway,  the grounding pull to the earth's center is not very pleasant at times.  Gravity is not my best of friend right now.  It's painful to get up.  Waddle Waddle Quack Quack.  ugh!  I'm not complaining.  I'm just saying!  =)  Oh, the MANY joys and discomfort of being able to bring a life to this world.    I am just amaze how the body works.   How can anyone say that there is no God.  There is a God.   He lives.  He created you and me in His own image.  Okay, that went off to a different tangent.  

Anyway, back to being uncomfortable. Using my foot to close the drawer in the fridge feels difficult to do.  Why?  Because it's not cool to bend down, squat and use my hands.  Besides, it doesn't look pretty!  =)   Do you know how uncomfortable it feels especially when that drawer is full of fruits?  It feels like a bowling ball is  attached to my inner thighs that my legs and my crotch feels strained.  Hellow!  Coconut tree!  Oh, not to mention another bowling ball hanging or sitting in my lower abdomen and pelvic area!     I'm hanging in there.  Just 4 more weeks left.  I just keep praying that Warrior 4 is healthy.

I also pray for the King.  This week he looked and still looks miserable.  He is in pain again.  Well, he is always in pain but this week ....he looked like he was the one in labor.  For a couple of days now...his contractions (are all over his body) are getting stronger from the amount of grunts and discomfort pasted on his face.   He is not the one to complain but he is in pain.   I hope that he will feel better by the time I go into labor.    He needs to sleep  earlier too.  This King of mine ...he can stay up until 4 in the morning and then wake up and go to work.  I don't know how he does it but he makes me nervous when he goes to work knowing he didn't get much sleep.   Well, because he drives and climbs poles...that's why.

Hey, my feet look normal today.  NO swelling!  Except the areas where a FLEA  or FLEAS bit me yesterday.    It's super itchy!  I want to scratch but I know they will get worse and welt up.  ugh!  I hate fleas!  Who brought fleas in the house?  Who has been around dogs with fleas?  It is super itchy!  I am the only one who reacts like this with fleas.  Warrior 1 reacts like this with mosquito bites.  His bites will turn into water blisters.  Anyway,  I've blabbed away again.  

Until next time.

***How do you like my top?  I was feeling super bloated today so, I wore my skirt as a top.  =)  Super comfy!  Just had to wear a cardigan to cover my religion.
