Chaos

This past month has been chaos for our family. Thankfully, I have not been sick with this pregancy. It's been SO different than w/ David. I may feel a bit nausous at times, but as long as I eat something I'm fine and I've only thrown up 2 times. I am, however, extremely tired!! I can't seem to do anything and after I get home from work I lay on the couch and then go to bed at 8pm. So, Zach has had to pick up the slack and do everything including cooking all the dinners, cleaning up, etc. On the weekends, I do laundry and try to pick up, but my job of cleaning the place just hasn't happened. So, we are living in a pig sty, literally gunk is built up in the bathrooms, etc. It's nasty.

David has been out of sorts because for the past month there has been no school. So, he stays at Rose's house all day. In addition to no school, he can't go outside at all so he is feeling very couped up, I believe. School starts Aug 16th, and it can't get here soon enough. He's been throwing fits about going to Rose's house recently.

And, Zach. Well he has actually been doing pretty well. About 7 months back he went vegan and he's lost nearly 50 pounds. David and I are not, but we pretty much don't eat any meat at home. It's actually not hard to accomodate his diet, well, except for in the wallet- being vegan is expensive! He looks really good. I want to post pics of him, and we've taken pics, but I don't know where the camera cord is to load the pictures we've taken (like I said, things are chaotic around here right now).

So, for the most part we're hanging in there and I'm wishing August (the heat 100+ every day and the first trimester) to be gone quickly!
