I miss my brother and sister. And I miss mommie too. Mommie will be visiting next weekend, and I can’t wait to see her. She will get to see my belly (it’s really getting big now), and see Muffin move. If Muffin is a good boy, Noni might even be able to feel him kick.

Muffin won’t kick unless I’m sitting alone with no one else around. MD hasn’t even felt him kick because every time Muffins at it, as soon as I call MD over, Muffin will stop kicking. He seems to be a very mischievous little buggah! He doesn’t just do it with MD; he’ll stop moving if anyone comes over, or if anyone puts their hand on my tummy. All I have to say is that he better be a good boy when Noni is here or I may have to add more days to the Cookie Embargo. :)

I miss my sissie and I don’t know when I’ll be seeing her. She lives up in NY, and I’m hoping she will be able to visit after Muffin is born, but it might not be for a while.

I miss my brother too. He said that he will definitely visit as soon as he can, but who knows when that will be.

It’s hard being pregnant when the people you love the most are so far away. Sometimes I feel very alone, I know I have MD here with me, thank god, but he’s a stinky boy and he doesn’t know what it’s like to be pregnant. I will say that he has taken very good care of me and I could not imagine doing this alone. He really is wonderful, but that doesn’t negate the fact that he is a stinky boy and sometimes I just want my mommie.

I know I’m in the last stretch, and I think this part is going to be the hardest for me. As I’ve pointed out before, I’m not the most patient of people, and the waiting is going to wear on me. Add the temperatures from the bowels of hell, the expanding tummy, and the frequency increase in urination, and I’m willing to bet I’m gonna get pretty crabby.

Despite all of that, I will enjoy the end of this road, even if I have to make a concerted effort to do so. I will enjoy it because it is the only time I will be pregnant with Muffin. I may have other babies, actually pretty sure I will, but each one will be different. This is my only Muffin, the only time I get to spend growing him and nurturing him from within. No matter how cranky I am, I’m going to try to remember that.
