August already?

I'm not really sure how so much time slips by so quickly.  We have had a busy but different summer here this year.  4 weeks ago my mother in law was diagnosed with an aggressive form of lung cancer.  She is undergoing chemo to possibly give her a few months to live.  She is only 54 years old and it is truly heartbreaking.  It has set the tone for the summer.  We have mostly spent quiet days at home or swimming in her pool and visiting as often as possible.  We did manage to get away for a few days but we did it for the kids.....

I am now 33 weeks pregnant.  I am extremely uncomfortable so my prediction is that this baby will come late!  Every time I think that I am going to have a baby early because I'm so uncomfortable that I'll never make it to my due date....I am overdue.  So, I might as well just plan for that! 

My hives seem to have been "cured".  I was on Zyrtec for several weeks and went off last week.  My hives did not come back, however, all of my seasonal allergy symptoms did....so I went back on it because I realized how much better I feel on it. 

I am SO tired.  I have never been this tired in a pregnancy before.  I hope I regain some energy after the baby is born. Usually at this point in a pregnancy I start cleaning everything in sight....all I do now is NAP!

Hang in there Karen. God is at work and it will be over before you now it. I know that's easy for me to say.
