Quick weekend

I think this pretty often, but geez, where did the weekend go?  I hate it when it goes so fast.  I mean, I’m really anxious to get to certain milestones in my pregnancy so I’m glad in one way but I wish I had more weekend left so I could have more time at home rather than at work.  It’s not that I don’t like my job, I just know I’m better suited to be a stay-at-home mom.  Unfortunately, there is no chance of that happening anytime soon

When I went to the library Friday, I picked up a book by Jenny McCarthy called Belly Laughs.  I had no idea until dh told me that she was a playboy playmate!  I read it this weekend and it definately had some funny parts in there.  Also, I found a book in the sale cart at Barnes and Noble that was a really thick but small paperback that is a day by day pregnancy journal with tidbits of info on each page.  I almost didn’t get it because I like to type when I journal but I will enjoy flipping a page and reading little something each night before I go to bed even if I don’t use the journal part.

The other thing I did this weekend was pick up a few maternity patterns at JoAnn’s along with some interlock fabric.  I got started on one top today and spent quite a bit of time  adjusting the pattern so it would fit me right and finally got it cut out tonight and got barely got started sewing it.  I know it’s early for maternity clothes but at the rate I sew I need to start early   Plus I’m really hoping to get the pattern perfected for me so that I sew a few of the same top in different fabrics and colors.  The one I’m working on is view D of McCalls 4880.

4 weeks 4 days – symptoms
More heartburn today but nothing too terribly bad, just enough to be noticable.  Craving for starchy foods – rice and potatoes.  I had this when I was pregnant with my son too, I couldn’t get enough instant mashed potatoes. I almost fell asleep a couple of times in the middle of the afternoon today but was fine once I got up and moved around.
