Icky body today

Adam finally came home from the Ozarks today! Sounds like he had a good time, and I'm really glad he got to go...won't get to do things like that as easily soon enough!

I woke up today feeling a little icky...mild/mod sore throat and not hungry at all (gasp! Melissa not hungry? Shocker!!). So I stayed in bed a little longer than I normally do and tried to chalk it up to "dry air" since it hasn't rained in, say, 4 days or so. Not so much...so I forced down some breakfast since the baby's gotta eat, right? Relaxed for a bit and then decided the list needed some serious attention. I made some good progress but then my stomach decided it was going to send me to the bathroom more than I would have liked throughout the day but nothing I couldn't handle. The baby was kicking PLENTY today, especially when I convinced myself to sit down here and there so I'm not too worried about this little blip in the health radar.

I'm so pleased that I managed to get another room in the house/on the list DONE!! It's in the trash! AND, I was able to clean the bathroom and vacuum the entire first floor (which is really the only place we hang out in the summertime) before making veggie lasagna (so good) and then finally crashing on the couch...well, recliner for now. I was sitting on the couch earlier and the baby went back and forth several times which leads me to believe she's trying to get me to fall off the couch or something. Active little bugger today. I hope that doesn't mean she feels icky too. I'm guessing she's fine in her liquid bubble. Now I'm just watching the ESPYs, trying not to fall asleep before drinking some serious fluids, while Adam works on one of his 2-20 page papers that are due mid-week for his MBA classes. Ick. I don't envy him at all. Besides today, I am still feeling pretty good. I feel very lucky each day that goes by that pregnancy has treated me relatively well thus far.

One other thing...I looked online at IKEA today since we had planned to go there next weekend after the Brewer game to get the baby's furniture...but they only have a small handful of cribs!! Say...3! That's no good...so I think we might forgo the IKEA trip for her room and just check things out locally. No need to go through the trouble if we likely won't find what we're looking for...ho hum. Hopefully we find it soon. I plan to get the nursery emptied out of the queen-sized bed that's in there sometime this week (with help, don't worry) so we can just GO with it and set it up as things are purchased. Can't wait!!
