32 weeks..

less than 8 weeks to go.... crazy!




What i Know Now: 32 weeks

- My mom had 3 children (out of 8) by the time she was 30 weeks. so being in the "30's" scared me. I know that stuff isnt necessarily hereditary, but still. its just crazy that she could come tomorrow, and probably be just fine.

- Things are getting really painful around here. (see post below). I wake up everyday feeling like I have run a marathon, and got kicked about 20 times during the night... (well, i do get kicked 20 times during the night, but you know what i mean.) i just feel very heavy and sore.

- My bum and my belly are heaving a head-to-head race to see which can get bigger first. its lovely.

-My bed has become a breeding ground for pillows. Sometimes i lose track of where jord is ;)

- I have noticed that i let out involuntary grunts everytime i have to bend over; its kind of funny. but uncontrollable.

- I had a dr apt this week, I have gained 19 lbs so far. Last month was rough for me i guess :) ha ha, you just gotta laugh it off. I stopped caring (most of the time) about how much i have gained, i just want to document it with each child to see the differences.

- CHARLIE HORSES. oh my hell  heck. talk about waking up 5x a night to the most excrutiating pain ever. in my calves and in my feet. last week i was trying to walk fast to try and make the bus and as soon as i sat down i was struck with the most painful charlie horses in my calves AND shin splints in BOTH LEGS. youch!!

-My closet is becoming smaller and smaller. I just cant get some of those shirts to stretch anymore!

- I am having to lather my entire body two or three times a day now. My skin is having a really hard time trying to stretch. I carry baby lotion with me wherever i go!

- Baby girl has started to get the hiccups alot more. I feel them, but now i SEE them too. And i feel so bad, cause i know they bother her by the way she throws herself around everytime she gets them. But its so cute! ;)

-I finally couldnt take the heartburn any longer, so i got a prescription from the doc. My life has been saved!!


We have been working really hard on the nursery.. and im loving it more and more. {i probably wont post pics until i have most everything done.} But sometimes i just stop in and rock on my rocking chair and imagine what life is going to be like. Im so nervous, but so excited!
