Last night Jonathan and I went to dinner with two of my co-workers. We had a really great time and tried out the Texas Roadhouse that just came into town. Nothing like a steak… Matt E jokes with me that our daughter is going to come out demanding steak and potatoes. I really wouldn’t be surprised if she did.

Anyways, moving on. We meet up for dinner then went to see a nearly 3 hour movie. By the last 45 minutes my back was hurting so bad I figured I was either in labor or my daughter was making me pay for sitting for almost five hours total.

I went home and pulled out the heating pad and fell asleep sitting almost upright. This morning I woke up and thought “Wow Sarah, the only people you know who sleep upright with heating pads are people over the age of 75.”

And so, I’ve decided that pregnancy is one of God’s ways to prepare women for old age. We can’t hold our bladder, our backs hurt, our hips hurt, we enjoy going to bed before the sun goes down, we walk about 3 times slower than anyone else and we get a little cranky if not properly feed.
