25 Weeks


Well here I am at 25 week -- awful picture I know. This week I have been blessed with acne I haven't had since I was in middle school. Ah, you have to love hormones.

Yesterday I met with the woman who will be watching our little darling while we're at work come September. She is great, comes highly recommended, and is right on my way to work. I feel very happy to have found her, but am trying to get over the sticker shock of just how much child care actually costs. Yeah, it's about 1/5 of my gross income (yup, that's before taxes are taken out...) Yikes. Kids are expensive and I'm just beginning to see that. Waiting lists for day care here fill up quickly, and it looks like we'll be forking over a half month's deposit before our little one is even born.

I managed to make it to the gym three times last week and am trying to convince myself to run 4-5 miles today. I know I'll feel better if I do it but it is getting harder to get myself out the door.
