I'm feeling hot, hot, hot!

It has been pretty warm the last few days (90s and even up to 100!). As a result of the increased temps my feet essentially doubled in size. Ugh! This is one of those pregnancy symptoms that I was hoping to avoid but lo and behold- my giant feet have erupted.



What they don't tell you is how painful it can be to walk on these suckers. I step out of bed and it's like pins in the bottom of my feet. Fortunately Archie is a fair weather dog and has zero interest in going for walks when the temps get too hot so my recent ailment has not impacted his walks too greatly.

James has been great and always offering to get me a drink or run to get something I need to avoid being on my feet much at night.  Just spending a few hours each night on the couch with my feet up has given me a whole new appreciation for all the mommas assigned to bedrest.  How hard it must be to sit or lay all day!

The temps are forecast to break next week so I'm sure the swelling will go down then.  My blood pressure has remained great (low even) so Lucie and I are doing well on the couch- eating ice cream, drinking lemonade and watching tv.

Love to all! And stay cool!
