One Month and Counting...

I am exactly one month away from my due date!!!! I can't believe that I can really have a baby here any day.

I have been trying to get all ready for him to come. I have been working hard on the bedding. I will get pictures of that up as soon as I get it done. I am really loving how it is turning out. I have been focusing on getting the baby's room all decorated, so the rest of my house has been neglected. So, hopefully I will be able to get the rest of the house baby ready before he comes.

At church yesterday, I was stopped in the halls by everyone asking me when I was done. Everyone commented on how I looked like I was about to pop. That is how I feel too. I haven't gained a lot of weight this pregnancy, but in the past couple weeks, I have grow 4 inches at the belly. I can't believe how big I am getting. I love having a big belly...we are just hoping that doesn't mean that I am going to have a huge baby.

Here are some pictures of me at 35 and a half weeks (They aren't that great, but I just wanted to get some while it was decent weather outside). I can't believe that I am so close to being done. I am to the point of no sleep, a constantly sore back, major heartburn nonstop, going to the bathroom every 10 minutes, being kicked in the same spot of the ribs every few minutes, and waddling every where I go. I can't wait to be finished. Jason thinks it is funny because I randomly say "ouch" under my breath all the time. The end of pregnancy is PAINFUL, but I know that every second is worth it. I am just now counting down the days and praying that I am not late!

Jessica,
You look awesome! And I can't believe you're almost done. I tell you what, your pregnancy has really flown by for me! :-)

Good luck with the last month. It really is pretty yucky, but you are almost there! You can do it!

By the way, I don't think I've read of any of the names you're considering. Are y'all keeping it a secret until the little guy is born?

Oh, and tell Emily that Bryce Cranmer and his wife have a blog. There's a link to them on my blog under "A Georgia Connection"

Jess I'm so excited for you! I can't believe how big you've gotten. It seems like so much fun to me, but I'm not the one who has to deal with the pain. :) Can you email me your address again? I think I lost it. Can't wait for the big day. Keep us posted on how you're doing.

Jessica, you look soooo cute. I can't believe how fast time goes when I don't see you all the time. I wish I could be there to see you in person. Hopefully I will be able to come for the blessing.

That is so exciting! And you look gorgeous!!! Beautiful woman you are. I can't wait to see more photos. Just awesome.

Jessica, you look fabulous and I wish you luck this month! I hope your baby gets here sooner than later! You dp have quite the belly there, but I also have to say that it looks like you've lost weight in other places since your first pregnancy post! Your face looks super slim-- mine was always so puffy in the 8th and 9th months!
