The final countdown ...

As many of you know, I had my baby shower here in Des moines over this past weekend at the botanical center downtown. Thanks to Megan, Dawn and Alyssa...it was PERFECT. They couldnt have done a better job. Everything from the decorations to the food was wonderful. So, a special thanks goes out to them. Thanks guys!

Today makes week #36 of my pregnancy...and if you arnt to quick with math( im not) that means I am 9 months pregnant. And yes...I feel like it every second. I am horribly tired all the time, my feet and ankels are never the same size hour to hour...and the times im not feeling sick..I want to clear out the kitchen refrigerator and cabinents. And also, in case you were curious....i deffinatly waddle now too. So...all the right symptoms are their for that fantastic last month everyone calls the home stretch. Lets just say...I am R.E.A.D.Y


Brian and I went out to a nearby lake and took some pictures of my and my little beachball today. They are pretty cute I must say. He did a very good job of trying to make me look as though I just wanted to colapse every step I took.
Well I will keep everyone updated as we get closer and closer to D day. 28 days to go!!(Please pray for me that it wont be 28 days though. :)

34 weeks and 6 days

As of today I am 34 weeks and 6 days pregnant. I am also growing non-stop, he is going to be a big boy...that is for sure. As of my last doctor visit everything was perfect and right on track...and the best part for me, I have only gained 12 lbs. I am very proud of myself for that, since all I want to do anymore is eat eat eat. He is kicking,punching and throwing elbows all day long... every day. He is most active at night...a good night sleep for me lately is about 4-5 hours. ( I guess he is just gearing me up for what is to come) The ironic part...all I want to do is sleep...all day...but I cant.
Last night was a funny night. Whenever I eat chocolate..Ryker goes nuts with movement. So, I had Brian put his hand on my belly for a bit. Brian could not believe how much he was moving, his face was priceless..he just had a huge grin on his face and kept laughing everytime he felt him move. It was fun to watch his reactions. Well, I will update you all again in the near future.
