m_of_disguiseBusy day yesterday. Had the end of month reports to do at work, which is always a hassle, then left early to go to my monthly OB appointment. Got home early enough to give the baby a snack and change her clothes before heading out, then the appointment was a pretty quick in and out since it was just a "yup, you're still pregnant!" checkup. Took a hot minute to find the heartbeat on the portable scanner thingy, so we switched to the ultrasound and found that she was hiding out under my ribs, which is why he couldn't find it. Everything looked normal.
Kate had a terrible time because Doctor's Office, but she got a lollipop at checkout and all was well. It had rained very briefly, which had cooled things down quite a bit, so we decided to take her to the park so she'd feel better about the outing. We found a new to us park just up the street from the hospital, and she ran around in the field and played on the swingset a bit before tuckering out.
Came home, downed much water, then M went to pick up the grocery order from yesterday. I guess running around at the park did a number on my softened ligaments, because my lower half was SCREAMING in pain. I took a handful of meds and tried some yoga poses to try and get some relief while he was out, but nothing really helped.
He got back with the groceries and we put everything away. The baby wanted to be helpful, and kept bringing me things like the giant tub of parmesan, which was very cute! She was very proud. Then she spotted the container of grapes and was SO EXCITED and forgot about being helpful. XP Though I did look into the living room and see her standing in the middle of the room and gently cradling the bag of Babybel cheeses (her favorites.)
She ate a monumental amount of grapes and then went happily to bed. I laid on the couch for a while to try and help my legs, then gave up and took a shower hoping the hot water would help, which thankfully it did. M and I went to bed, but he kept me up chatting for waaay too long, so I'm very tired today. But, he had heard from his friend that the interviewer considered M to be candidate #1 so far, so he had Many Thoughts about the future he wanted to discuss. Fingers crossed.
