Reminiscing

It's really fun to be pregnant again and I find myself trying to remember every detail of the first pregnancy with Reese & Ryan and how I felt compared to how I'm feeling now. I know it's so early and the only thing I'm feeling right now is TIRED. I remember that from the first time around. I am so happy that R&R still sleep in the afternoon. I love taking an afternoon nap with them and I kind of can't function without it right now. They slept for 4 hours yesterday and I slept for 2 of it. Cory thinks I shouldn't let them nap so long because sometimes they're up until 9 or 10, but it's necessary for my survival right now.

Even though this is my second pregnancy, I still feel like there is stuff that I need to learn. I gave away a few of my pregnancy books to friends and now I want them back so I can read up on what changes are happening with my body. My mom reminded me yesterday that at one point in my first pregnancy I told her that the book said Reese & Ryan were the size of garden beetles and we thought that was hilarious. I found my favorite book at Target last night, Your Pregnancy Week by Week, and it had some of those same comparisons. In a few weeks--week 8, the fetus will be the size of a pinto bean. I just love those little analogies.
