Whew! Finally got caught up on the housework today. Well, at least the downstairs is clean. The laundry still needs to be folded, but hey, that’s a job for another day, right? I am trying not to overdo it this week, since I’m working a LOT. (Tomorrow I’m working from 9am to 9pm…cringe.) But today the sun was shining and it was positively spring-like! I loved it.

My inlaws got this for me when I was sick. Isn’t it so pretty? And my whole kitchen smells awwwwesome because of it. Purple tulips! Tiny daffodils! Cheery pink primroses! Delicious smelling white Hyacinths!

I’ve added a few small succulents to the garden since I last posted a picture. We got them at RiteAid of all places… but I love my little garden and am proud that I haven’t killed them all off yet. The yellow tulips in the white vase are fake, though. I got them at work because my kitchen needed some cheer a few weeks back when everything was looking really dreary and it just KEPT. ON. SNOWING. But I think it might be done with all that yuckiness. We’ll see.

And even though it’s a terrible picture, here is the bump at 16 1/2 weeks.

It’s actually a little smaller than last week. I lost a bunch of weight when I was sick last week, and so now I actually weigh 3 pounds less than I did when I got pregnant. I am sure I’ll gain it back in no time.

Alright, I am going to continue to try to be productive and make some dinner!
