Whirlwind

Life has been a whirlwind lately with planning the wedding. My old boss threw a cocktail party for Neil and I tonight. It was nice to see everyone, though I was tired and certainly not the life of the party. Tomorrow is my bridal shower in the morning and my bachelorette party that night - where there will be a male stripper. Honestly, I'd rather have a female stripper, but obviously my friends would rather have a man undulate in front of them. Now, I love men. But, I'm just not thrilled to have their junk flapping in my face in a bright banana hammock. However, I'm not complaining as I know it will be fun - my friends will make it fun.

We're only two weeks out from the wedding and I can't wait to stop planning and just experience the day. I only wish I had more energy to get everything done. The main affect of my pregnancy so far is the fatigue. Plus, I wake up at five in the morning (as if my body is preparing me for little sleep and waking in the middle of the night) and it takes me awhile to fall back asleep. It's a bit of a vicious cycle - I am so grateful that I don't have to work. I have so much more respect for working moms - or even pregnant women that work. Because, I'm tired! But at least I don't have to get up early in the morning and work all day. I really am grateful.

Anyways...15 days and counting...

Love,
