We had an AWESOME weekend! We stayed at home Friday night and were boring people. Saturday we cleaned the house (desperately needed), I went and started our baby registry with Courtney's help (thank you so much!), and then Mom, Dad, and Jack came to our house for dinner.
Sunday, Jack and I went to church while Joey went to work in the morning. Then we all went over to Aunt Karan's house for Easter lunch which was complete with great food and great company! We celebrated a whole bunch of birthdays and played left-handed football in the front yard...this brought on some stares from passers-by. Then Stick-Hat-Shoe-Cup was invented....the craziness continued!
Last night Mom and I went to see the musical Wicked to celebrate her birthday and didn't get back to the apartment until 10:30. We only stayed up for a few more minutes and then turned in. So I couldn't have been tired from staying up too late....then what was it?
My allergies have been flared for weeks now so I haven't been able to sleep with my mouth closed in that long. So I wake up every little while to acquire some moisture via my handy water glass. I evidently have to wake up to turn over now (not sure why...not that big yet). I have also started having to use the restroom once or twice in the middle of the night (for those of you who have seen the ultrasound DVD understand why). And Joey has started a new habit of elbowing me at every turn in the last 6 months. In the face, in the back, to the neck....really wherever he can.
So it shouldn't be a surprise that I was a little crabby today! I don't handle sleep deprivation well. I try to understand when nurses call me in the middle of the night (but there is always that tone in my voice that says "this better be good"), and I try to understand that Joey is asleep and this isn't his vendetta against me. But the urge to shove him all the way off his side of the bed is still there especially when he wakes me up for the 5th time in one night when I have already woken up twice to go to the bathroom and 18 times for water because of the mouth-breathing.
What's a girl to do to get some freakin' sleep around here?!?

It WAS a big weekend! Wicked was fabulous...thanks again! Talk to your ob-gyn about your allergies and breathing difficulties.
I love how you said we played "left-handed football"... like it was an actual game. I can just see us lining up, 3 on 3 and playing football with our right hands tied behind our backs...
