Am I next yet?

Ok I know you all are sick of hearing about my pregnancy ups and downs but seriously. Only 29 days to go and I'm feeling it big time. I am 36 weeks pregnant and now that countdown is on I swear it has gotten harder. I go on a website daily for pregnant women or women with children and I share my woes with them ( I think its the main people that can understand because they are all due in December) hence why I haven't updated every day because if I did, it would go a little something like this . . . . "Today the hiccups were horrible" "Pregnancy is killing me" and so on until you probably would be like ok we get it, you're tired of being pregnant, talk about something else lol. Phew speaking of hiccups they finally stopped just a second ago. Thank you Rowan for testing your diaphram out yet AGAIN today.

We are feeling the crunch though, I am starting to get my hospital bag ready. The last person due before me (of my personal friends) just had her baby boy last night. She was 10 days overdue, oh heavens I hope I don't do that and he was 8 lbs 14 oz and all is well with mom and baby. So now I figure, its a countdown to my baby shower (November 22nd) and then its time to evict or at least try to he may have different plans. I think it would be really cool if I could have him right before Thanksgiving so that my sister Erin and my Brother in law Jason and his wife Stephanie and there kids could see him before they go back to Montana. That would be cool and I've tried to reason with Rowan that this would be great but somehow I don't think he's going to cooperate but you never know.


There's so much to do and I know I'm going to forget something, I wrote out what we still really NEED to have before he's born and am crossing off the few things (ie. breast pump, bottles, liners, breast pads, milk freezer bag storage, games to play while in labor etc.) all this stuff hasn't been purchased yet so once the baby shower is done we're going shopping! Everyone I talk to says I'm not going to make it to my due date but we'll see, I am still of the mind set that I don't want to get my hopes up because knowing me I'll go overdue lol. I did that with Gavin and he didn't want to come out. I thought to myself at the time, oh maybe I'll get the tax break for 2005 and sure enough he waited til January 5th 2006 to make his appearance. Oh well, I can dream but not hold my breath on it right? Here's my latest belly pic for you guys. I am feeling large and in charge and like I ran out of room 2 weeks ago lol.

How cool that you've even picked a name for your up and coming addition. You must be so done. Your necklace is on its way - enjoy!
