Tired

I am so very tired. I have not slept much the past three nights. Monday night Reese couldn’t sleep, so she kept waking me up, walking around and trying to get comfortable. Tuesday night we had another round of storms, so we were up until about 1:00 a.m. making sure the house didn’t blow away. We went downstairs at about midnight and tried to sleep down there for awhile, but it just didn’t happen for me.

Last night Bean decided to try and turn again. “He” was making very good progress during the UK game, and at one point his head was down below my belly button. I went to sleep not really sure how he was positioned. At about 3:00 this morning he woke me up, kicking and stretching his way down. It was so painful I could hardly breathe. I kept trying to talk to him, telling him that if he was going to all that trouble, he could at least break my water so we could get this show on the road. It would benefit us both. So he kept trying for the next 2 ½ hours, non-stop. He got himself positioned sideways and stayed like that for awhile, allowing me to doze for about an hour. But by the time I got up for work he was back in his original head-under-the-rib position. Mission failed.
