Energy Level and Renovations

Well, at 35 weeks, I have good and bad days.  Some days I can't do anything and actually only eat two meals a day because that's all the energy I have.  Other days, I can do anything (this actually just started).  Is this normal?  Is this the beginning of the end of pregnancy?  I hope so!!!

We are in the process of re-doing the basement.  We really are on a timeline to get it finished. You may be wondering why take on such a big project at this time?  Well, we need a bedroom for the baby and Stew will be moving to the basement.  He is excited to have his own space; I am excited to have a finished basement and add another 500 square feet to the living space of the house.  As kids, my sister and I had the run of the basement.  I hope that all the Sullivan kids will have the same luck.  We finally got the laundry room finished last night around 10 p.m.; now I have about 12 loads of laundry to do, no joke!  The living room is full of clothes, it looks like an episode of Oprah where the people are hoarders and there are just paths through the house... Thankfully it's just short term.

Jess was entertaining herself with my computer last night.  I'll leave you with a picture that will hopefully make you laugh.  She and Stew were laughing their heads off while Barry and I were working our asses off in the basement.



P.S.  In real life the kids are quite good looking.  I'm not sure why they like to make themselves look like freaks!

Susie this is great! I'm glad you decided to do it. There are a bunch of mom oriented sites that you can have your blog registered on. I have the links to a couple of them on my site.

The energy level will come back once the little one has exited. The home stretch is here. Now it's time to start getting the fridge full of food so that you don't have to worry about cooking, especially for your lunches!
