A Rollar Coaster Week

It has been a crazy week; today I am exactly 31 weeks pregnant. Up until this week (and I think Joe would agree) that I have had a normal, healthy pregnancy, with only a very few minor emotional lapses and some cravings here and there…nothing to get all crazy about! However, this week was like a roller coaster. Between the chaos at work, training the new girl that started (she is great, but it’s like how many things can I do in a 8.5 hour period you know?), trying to have a life, and attempting to get myself mentally and emotionally prepared for the baby I am starting to get tapped out. I had several emotional breakdowns this week (one much larger than the rest)! Some of them just consisted of a little bit of yelling followed by some disgruntled faces about whatever it was I was freaking out about, others were much more serious and in a way I feel appropriate and necessary. On Wednesday night when I was on the phone with Renee, Joe at one point went upstairs because he told me I was starting to scare him. I figured, well he made it through unscathed for 30 weeks….he can tough out the last 10! Luckily, as always Renee was there to comfort me and make me laugh. The good news is that it’s Friday, I get to go home in about 8 hours and then on Sunday we leave for our vacation at Geneva with my family then onto the Finger Lakes in NY (Joe and I are going just the two of us) for some much needed rest & relaxation.

The shower is quickly approaching and I couldn’t be more excited to see everyone and to have everyone see me! Just as exciting as the shower is the fact that 4 days after the shower Erin, Mike, and Delainey come to Cleveland and I will get to meet her for the first time…then 3 days later Jill and Zach are getting married. Good news Jill, I tried on my dress last night and it fits…I even have a little room in the event my boobs get bigger (we will just keep our fingers crossed that they don’t though)! I am trying to keep my arms and upper body “firm” so I can look as cute as I can for my longtime friends special day. Feeling good and more excitement to come…Baby Beyer arrival is quickly approaching!
