8 Months!


32 Weeks down, 8(ish) to go...the days started flying by after I wasn't feeling nauseous all the time! Getting more uncomfortable everyday - she loves to kick under my ribs and bounce on my bladder. Not sleeping very well at night. Contractions keep getting stronger and more frequent - need to start cutting back on my "to-do" list and decrease my stress level. This pregnancy has been much harder than my first - looking forward to not being pregnant anymore and having a new baby again!
Lily tells me everyday, "I love you mama. And I love my baby sister too!"

31 Weeks

Yay! The kid's room (weird to say "kid's" instead of "Lily's room") is totally organized and ready - baby clothes, blankets, car seat and toys all set to go. Wonderful to be having another girl for many reasons, but especially love the fact that we can use everything again - literally do not need to buy anything besides diapers.

30 Weeks: The Business of Being Born

Everyone must see this movie. If I wasn't already planning on having a home birth, I would change my mind after seeing this documentary! Birth is amazing...and I get to do it all over again. :)

Cravings: sour patch kids

Highlights: pre-natal massage over a lunch break

Annoyances: bruised and sore from little baby feet being shoved underneath my ribs

7 Months, 1 Week

Random strangers are now asking me, "When are you due? You are pregnant, right?"
And I find it hilarious to say, "Nope - just my beer belly."
