BLAH

First off, let me just clarify... I love being pregnant and I am so grateful I am able to be. I am grateful that I will have another son and I am enjoying this "bonding" time- feeling his little toes and other extremities prodding. OK with that said....

I feel like crap. Thank goodness for makeup. The heartburn is kicking, and all I want is Sherbert. The space for my lungs to expand is diminshing so I always feel out of breath, and my right rib feels pretty bruised. Oh yah - BRAXTON HICKS MUCH! Seriously, I dont remember it being like this with Makoa, but maybe that's because now I actually know what they are. I guess my body is just "getting ready!"

The Doc said I'm "good to go" so I'm ready anytime now! Like I mentioned before, I will not complain if he decides to come sooner than May 18th. We're pretty much decided on a name (I will disclose that at a later post, when it is decided), and I'm pre-registered at the hospital, I'm doing a load of baby laundry today, I still need to pack a bag (woo-hoo) and my baby shower is scheduled for tomorrow night (side note: Makoa was born the day BEFORE his baby shower - and I still went... I DONT want to do that again...). Needlesstosay - JUST IN CASE he'd like to grace us with his presence in the next week or two - I wont have extra "to dos" on my list. (But of course, if I'm THAT ready... with my luck - he'll come late- knock on wood.)

No cute pictures to display this time... but soon enough you will all be bored to death of all the new-born pictures of our soon-to-arrive baby boy! Hope you all have a wonderful day and a splendid weekend!

It seems like it will never end...and even when you've done it before, it still seems like pregnancy will never end! AHHH! what can you do. I think what makes it so bad is that you can't do anything. Well...you could do some aerobics videos or run stairs...but you have to be really desperate to get moving that much! jerry took me on a 4 mile walk...well almost jog the day i went into labor with dallin. good luck hope it doesn't take too long! I'm excited to see that baby!

I remember how that feels. I wanted Kennedy OUT of me! haha. I am excited for you. I can't wait to see the new baby. I'll need you to tell me how it is to have 2 because like I have said before, I am way scared to take that leap!

Yeah... I feel like I have a balloon with a fish swimming inside of it inside my belly. This little boy won't stop moving EVER... and so I am wanting to try a pin and see if it will pop and then he'll just swim out... and I'm not as far along as you. I think the patience is harder this time around for different reasons. It's hard to chase around a toddler and want to just lay on the couch all day too... oh and then have to be a housewife, part supporter, etc. Life will ease up soon, right?
