The Life of Savages

Today I enjoyed two luxuries.  I slept in and took a nap.  Wow!  Do I feel good!  I guess I didn’t technically have the whole day off.  I still cooked dinner, cleaned the house and worked on laundry, but I slept which is something I am finding harder to do well these days.  Even before I was pregnant I thought about this stage with dread.  Really, I am generally not uncomfortable while pregnant even when I am in my third trimester.  I know people complain about a myriad of issues but nothing seems to plague me. . . until I go to sleep.  At this point in my pregnancy, my hip joints feel so loose that I feel like something is going to slide right off.  So, when I lay on my side my knees knock together in some funny way that makes any more than about five hours of sleep in row very uncomfortable.  But it is all worth it and only 6 more weeks until I know REAL sleep deprivation again – yay.

While I was napping, Brian and Lily took a short trip out of the city to enjoy some green (or brown or blue or anything else but cement).
