74 days and counting down!!!

I am getting so excited..it seems so close, yet so far away. We still have so much to do!

My boy is kicking like crazy at the moment! It is such an amazing feeling as the kicks get stronger and stronger. Yesterday I put a pillow on my tummy and Tim and I watched his little soccer practice as he was kicking the lil pillow off. So fun! Sometimes I can feel his lil bottom (or something) up by my ribs. It is not a comfy feeling, but he is getting bigger and bigger, and 10.4 weeks to go! My Dr. appt was last wed. but they had to cancel with us because another little one was being delivered. :) So it is this Wed. now. Pretty soon I will have to go to the Dr. every 2 weeks. Tick, tock, tick, tock!

Congrats to my beautiful friends whom are gonna be parents...I am not sure if they want the news out, or for me to be the one to tell...but they are people who are dear to my heart and I am so thrilled for them! They will be wonderful parents! Lucky baby!

Here is going on this WEEK 30!!!!

"Your Baby This Week
Your baby now weighs about 3 lbs (1400g), measures about 10.8 (27cm) inches from crown to rump and measures about 17 inches (38cm) from head to toe.
Your baby is probably aware of your Braxton Hicks contractions, which you experience regularly, even when you do not notice them.
By this time, your baby is very active and you feel its movements frequently.
Your baby is still practicing breathing movements which have now become rhythmic.
Sometimes your baby gets the hiccups when she accidentally swallows amniotic fluid the wrong way.
She is getting fatter and plumper. On an ultrasound, you can see your baby's activities quite easily.
Your baby has periods of rest and periods of activity now. Your baby is probably most active when you are trying to rest. (So true!)"


MWAH to all!
