New Sleeping Arrangements???

Sorry I have been so quiet on the blog front, but things have been rolling along very smoothly.  There just didn't seem to be anything momentous enough to share.  However, stay tuned.  Nursery pictures will be arriving soon.

Rowdy has finally started pushing and pulling on me with enough force that my mid-back has gotten seriously out of alignment.  I saw my chiropractor on Tuesday, and he did a great job of moving everything back into place.  Unfortunately, by about 3:00 AM on Wednesday morning, I awoke with the feeling that someone had stuck a knife into my back.  Last night, I don't think I slept for 15 minutes total.  Nemo thought I had lost my mind as I tried to find a position, yoga stretch, or Pilates move to alleviate the pain.  When I finally gave up on the attempted sleeping thing, I realized that it hurt just as bad to sit or stand.  Lovely.  Good news is I just left the doctor, and he seemed to get everything all lined back up.  He suggested that if it continues to keep me awake tonight, I might consider sleeping on the floor...

Can't you just see this picture???  Here I am most likely not sleeping, but on the floor on my little pallet trying to stuff pillows around my bulging belly, under my knees, and behind my back to get comfortable.  And since I am most likely not sleeping, I will have plenty of time to glare up at Nemo stretched out all by himself on the king sized bed and comfortably curled up in our down comforter.  Nemo has been known to toss his chew bones or toys off the bed in the middle of the night.  So, in the event I actually go to sleep on my sad little pallet on the cold, hard floor, I will very likely be rudely awakened by having a slimy chew bone tossed unceremoniously onto my forehead as Nemo curls himself into an even more comfortable ball in the middle of the down comforter on the middle of our king-sized bed. 

(Dallas, by the way, is in Utah thoroughly enjoying his motorcycle trip and luckily missing out on all the late night antics.)
