26 days before I leave!
Leo and I spent bonding time relaxing in the grass of Colonial Cemetery on Saturday. Some may say that is morbid, but I find it to be one of the most peaceful and inspiring places within walking distance from my apartment. Reading the names and dates on the headstones is great fodder for my imagination. And Leo can't get enough people/squirrel/bird/bug watching.
I'm always on the look out for boy names and the cemetery is always a great place to check. So far, here are a few that I like, although known of which I've seen in my old grave yard. Feel free to tell me what you like on the list - and if you don't like any of them, than feel free to keep your opinion to yourself:
Favo names of the week/month
- Soren
- Miles
- Parks
- Emerson (Emery for short)
- Hugh
Pregnancy update:
I've been experiencing some posterior pain (a.k.a - my butt hurts when I walk). My weekly pregnancy email came just in time on Sunday, with an article focused on lower back pain. At first I was annoyed, because this was definitely buttocks pain and not lower back pain. Luckily, there was a little paragraph at the end saying that some woman do experience this. And guess what aggravates it? Walking (my main mode of transportation), climbing stairs (I live on the fourth floor and work on the third), and leaning forward when sitting (my posture at work). SO check, check and check - no wonder I hurt! Luckily, I was off my feet enough this weekend to get everything back to normal. Now I am trying to make myself have better posture and take the stairs a little slower.
Comments
I like the name Emerson - very cool and not very common.
Sorry for your pain! I had a co-worker once eons ago that had intense tailbone pain during her pregnancy. I had sciatic pain in my posterior and that's miserable. I'm so sorry you are hurting - I hope you feel better soon!
And I like Miles. Don't quite know why, but I do.
i noticed on your profile that you are a fan of the book rebecca. i just watched the movie yesterday and i LOVED it(like the name parks) and now i am going to read the book!
And I love that cemetary - it is peaceful. I have to admitt that Boneville Cemetary totally freaks me out though - maybe because it is so big. I still go there though - too cool to pass up :).
Emory is a family name on my dad's side so we've had it on our lists...but Emory and Avri might be a bit much. haha. Well, I hope you're doing great and that the bum pain eases up!!! I had the worst time on my feet...seriously I couldn't walk for more than 5 minutes before they started to KILL...maybe it had something to do with the fact that I gained 50 lbs!!! :D haha. Good luck getting things wrapped up and packed up!
I'm glad things are going good for you. Good luck. I can't wait to hear about your soon to be motherhood.
