Heat Wave!

WOW is it hot. Seriously I am melting- it has been over 95 degrees now for 4 days in a row. Luckily this weekend we cooled off at the pool, and Reilly and Rich had a blast in the water. Today it was literally too hot to even go outside (of course I did manage to get a little shopping in this morning though, shocker). This afternoon it was 99 degrees and then some CRAZY storms blew through. Reilly and I were reading books in her room and all of sudden this crazy sound like a train came upon us- I grabbed her and ran in the hallway to see Rich flying upstairs to check on us- pretty scary! Then the power went out and we all huddled downstairs and watched the storm trying to keep her from being scared. She is such a cutie :) Here are some pics of her in the Dora bathing suit Grammy bought her!





I am shocked that despite all the heat, I am still not swelling! By this point with Reilly I had total cankles and giant toes, swollen hands and couldn't wear my rings at all. None of that going on this time around, which is great. I had my 35 week appt this week and only gained 2 pounds in the last 2 weeks- yay! Dr. A is sending me for an Ultrasound on Friday to check if the baby is definitely head-down, check the fluid and see how big this little one is! Only 4 1/2 weeks to go :) I am feeling really good, even with the heat and a short bout of sciatica over the weekend. Sleeping is pretty much torture, but I get through it. Rich installed room darkening shades in our room so even when he leaves at 5:45 am (yes- he LEAVES at that time poor guy) I can somedays sleep in. Other days I am wide awake, in pain, and have to get out of bed. I don't like those days so much...
