Distractions

I'm trying to distract myself.
Most of the time, though, I end up just sitting on the computer, wasting way too much time on useless sites; or on the couch and falling asleep.
My body is prepping for this baby and in doing so, has sucked most of my energy away. Gone. Bye-bye.
This is rather depressing since I don't enjoy being unproductive. Eddie thinks I'm crazy :-)
But now that the contractions, as totally irregular as they could be, have being going on here for a while, I just have to keep myself distracted to not dwell on the fact that I am not yet, in fact, in labor. But as of Wednesday, I'm full term so I'm probably not going to take it easy since both Hunter and myself are quite done with the current arrangement. He likes to let me know that the lack of space is not his cup of [herbal] tea as frequently as possible...and my ever contracting uterus is not helping to ease our discomfort.

ANYWAYS

I have been working on our Halloween costumes off and on for the past 4 or so months, since I am quite aware that I don't fare too well near the end of my pregnancies. I'm sooooo close to being done. I think all that is left will take about 2 hours - total. I just needed to purchase some last minute items (which I did today) and then they should be done. So I should have some cute pictures to share come Halloween time.

In between working on those, I redid my nursing cover that I used for both Lexi and Carissa, as it was getting worn out. And now it's not a pretty pink that was cute when I had little girls, but (to me) awkward for nursing my little boy. It's blue with ducks :-)
I also made two reversible slings- one for me and one for Eddie- to use for Hunter.

 and with some of the extra fabric, made a little Sunday outfit for him as well, since we do live in Hawaii :-)

I still have managed to make some of my usual distraction --- sweets--- just not quite as often since standing for long enough to accomplish them left me beat for the next 24-48 hours. Not conducive to a hobby that can make a mess. That and I really needed to be eating LESS sweets, since my room for food is limited. It should be something healthier than cookies or chocolate that is occupying that space, or so I'm told ;-) And I think some of Eddie's coworkers will appreciate it in the long run with their PT tests coming up!
