So it might not look that big from the front . . .

and then BAM!! I turn and all are blown away!
I continue to get comments such as:
  • Are you sure there is only one in there?
  • YOU ARE HUGE!
  • Are you due tomorrow?
  • When are you due? (Then I say 5 weeks) Response: WOW!!!

So yes . . . I am huge . . . but for the most part I'm feeling great!

My last appointment went well, once I got there (long story).

He said that weird pain I was having was just because the baby is in position. So it is good, but painful. Luckily I haven't really had that this week.

My joints are definitely lose and it is sometimes causing pain.

And I of course I am not sleeping.

But I am still positive and can hardly wait!!

We are trying to get the house in complete order (yeah right!) this weekend because starting next week I am working 30 hrs a week instead of my normal 10. I know, most people work less the closer they get . . . not me! The girl I work with is due as well any day now; so until my baby comes i will be doing her job and mine. At least it will help the time pass more quickly!

Anyway, life is great! I cant wait to meet my little man!!!

Wow you are amazing in staying so positive during the pregnancy, I think I have had quite a few negative...and as far as your belly, it is a very cute one, and he just must be in an "I'm here" position. :)We can't wait to meet your little man too! :)

I can't believe you only have 5 weeks left. That is so exciting. I am so glad to hear that you can laugh with the comments you get. Not a lot of women can do that. But you do look great.

I don't know what kind of pain you're in - but if it's anything like what I experienced for at least my last two months, it just means the baby's in position and he's putting pressure on your pelvic bone! YOUCH! Painful!! I would be walking, sitting, laying, anything! and I would immediately have to stop what I would doing and just bare it until the pain subsided. Hope these last five weeks go well.

What to pack . . .

By
So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

By
So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
