Tomorrow, my mom and I go on vacation. I am so excited! It's a mixture of a birthday present (which was 4 days ago) and payment for always staying back to take care of the animals while everyone else went on vacations. They went about 7 times this past year, without me. Now, seeing as I just turned 22, they shouldn't have to take me with them every time, but its rough staying back every time with 6 house-hold animals and 8 outside animals(chickens and ducks). For a week each time. Its difficult. This is also, most likely, my last vacation before giving birth.
Speaking of that, today is the first day of my second trimester. Its supposed to be easier from right, at least that's what I've been told. I've gotten some of my registry done. Everything that can be gender neutral, at least. After I find out the sex, I'll finish the rest. Of course, like before, my momma will be right by my side. Picking out stuff that Grandma just has to have to spoil her newest grandchild. I think she is more excited than I am at times. I'm still nervous, beyond belief. Am I ready to be a mother? Not in the slightest. I know, with the help of my family, I'll be okay and able to do it. It's just hard to realize that at week 13. You think that your life is ending, but you know, deep down, its really just beginning.
Back to vacation, FLORIDA! Leaving in the morning tomorrow, "whenever we get up and motivated" mom said. I said that we just have to leave by 10am, that way it'll still be sunny when we got to our half-way point to stop for the night. As well as, it'll be bright when we drive through my home state, North Carolina! We'll be gone for a week. We already have plans to be lazy. Except, we'll be doing shopping, museums, and the beach, at least one of those days. CSI museum and a Titanic museum...I'm not sure which I'm more excited for. Even though we can't do them back-to-back because I'm supposed to sit and relax, doctors orders. We're even supposed to stop, at least, every two hours during the drive to prevent blood clots. Gonna be great... ;-)
