What's happening to my body clock?

Hmmmm I guess my body is getting in preparation for the forth coming events. My mind has taken to waking up at 3.30am and not letting me get back to sleep for another hour and a half. I guess this is what they say when they go on about the body's natural way for preparing you for the sleepless nights to come!

On a slightly different note me and bump spent most of today baking making a variety of yummy puddings to sample over the next few days; cookies, butterfly cakes (albeit not very pretty ones!), marshmallow crispy squares, rocky road bars and chocolate bread and butter pudding made with the left over chocolate fondue from the weekend! I have to say I have sampled the cookies, butterfly cakes and bread and pudding butter and all are quite edible although the bread and butter pudding is slightly sickly and best eaten in small quantities!! I also did the sensible thing of starting to stock up the freezer for while I'm in hosp and after the birth. Chris now has a selection of quiche, pizza, spag bol and shep pie to pick from, shortly to be followed up with chicken casserole, sausage casserole, beef stew and chicken and ham pie - if I get round to it that is!! I also though it might be an idea to put a few loafs of bread in and some bread buns so the bread machine is now working on overdrive.

Not much planned for this this week so I guess that's a good thing based on all the food prep I need to do! I do have a midwife apt on Wed to amuse me and a free trip to the bingo on Thursday for Louise's birthday, so we're hoping for a big win and maybe the excitement of it all will bring the labour on!!
