I wore 2 different earrings on the news today. Prego brain is real, y’all! You can’t REALLY tell because they’re a similar shape and color, but they’re definitely not the same pair. And now that I’m in the third trimester I think it’s even more in control of my life than before! Another thing that is real? Braxton Hicks! I’ve been really busy at work lately so I think the added stress is adding to that too.

Another thing that is real? Clumsiness! Holy cow am I so clumsy! I was taking dishes out of the dishwasher and this happened: 

Luckily it was just one plate but man did it leave a mess! How can one plate shatter into 100 pieces?! I’ve never broken a plate since we’ve been married – I guess there’s a first time for everything!

All of those are the pregnancy norm, it’s just weird because it’s so NOT the norm for me! I’m also starting to get a little more tired and fatigued. This baby is getting big and zapping my energy. I know it’s having fun in there too- doing somersaults, hiccuping, and practing its dancing and kicking skills. It’s such an amazing feeling. What’s even more amazing? When Laryen talks to our future son or daughter and it responds back by kicking or punching. I can’t even describe this feeling – it’s so surreal. Our baby recognizes our voices and surroundings and can already feel love. Miracle upon miracle.
