Riley is preparing Sharon and I for Cooper's arrival. She is a spunky puppy that is up and ready to go every morning between the hours of 4:30-6:30 a.m. Today she let us sleep until 7 a.m., she must have had a tiring day yesterday. She is very cute in the morning, she will walk on Sharon to wake her up. She knows better than to attempt that with me, so instead she licks my fingers that are hanging off the bed. The difference will be that we won't be able to say, "Cooper, lay down" when we want to keep sleeping!
On a similar sleeping note...I am about 37 weeks now and the tossing and turning during the night has reared it's head once again. I have been able to sleep pretty well the past month with my pillow arrangement. That's over. I have the same pillow arrangement but the problem that I'm having is my hips are aching tremendously throughout the night. It's the weight of Cooper that is bearing down on my hips and making it uncomfortable. I switch sides all night from my right to my left in hopes of getting more sleep. But by the time I'm awake, I'm in pain and it takes awhile to fall back to sleep. I guess this is what is also preparing me for meeting this little guy. The farther along you go in your pregnancy the more you want the baby out, it's all for preparation!!!
