More Empathy Belly....

Belly to Belly! All smiles... I love my husband! What a good sport! He doesn't look too bad with a baby belly!
Back to Back! This really was a lot of fun. Now that Lamaze is over we are on our own. We can officially say our baby is due this month now that it is August! Can you believe that?!?! Time sure does fly. It seems like we just found out that we were pregnant. It goes to show you to really enjoy each and every moment. 29 more days until my due date.....which we all know babies do not like to always come on or near their due dates! There have been bets that I will go into September...you know who you are! We will find out....

Just a quick update on my last appointment at 36 weeks...baby looked good. Still head down...thank God! The doctor said that it doesn't look like I will have her soon....soon being before my next appointment on the 13th. That is crazy we are now talking days! I have been having Braxton-Hicks all the time now.... my stomach gets VERY tight! She still likes to wake up at 3 or 4 am! I thought I was suppose to get to sleep my third trimester! It feels like quite the opposite, but hey, as along as my baby is moving around and happy so am I! I have been craving sweet stuff more and more. I have been bad and been giving in a little more now than I did before. I am surprised I gained only 4 pounds this last month....I was worried it'd be more like 10! Sonic and Dari Queen are way too close to my house!!!

I am starting to feel like I just want to get the pain over with so I can just hold her and see her....maybe I am starting to come to terms with it....maybe! I would like to say a quick thank you to all my former pregger supporters out there...you know who you are! I have some very dear friends and am very blessed. You all mean a lot to me! Not much longer and you won't have to put up with the crazy preggo stuff!

Empathy Belly....

Last night was "Empathy Belly" night at Lamaze. It was our last night so it was fun to do as a final hooray! As you can see Paul here all smiles, his bladder is hanging out. Those guys last night had issues with the bladder! I think the velcro was bad. How funny! All of us preggers got a good laugh out of the dads-to-be!
For those of you who really know my husband here he is strutting his stuff belly in tow! He was Mr. Funny Man. He volunteered to go first to get it over with, but if you ask me I think all of the guys had way too much fun this belly!
Belly clothed! Mr. Poser!

Puppy Time


I had to put these two pics in here. I thought the top one was too cute. Paul and Alley having some snuggle time. Then both girls, Alley and Isabell, having some play time! You can't say he doesn't love the puppies too!

The newest project....



is a fence! Everyone that knows Paul knows he likes projects. He sure has his work cut out for him on this one. The soil here in Missouri is very rocky! It was not a fun time for these guys digging down 3 foot into rocky soil! In the picture above we have our kind neighbors, Will and Jamie, giving a helping hand. We appreciated all of their help! I will blog more pics when the fence is completed.

Profile....


Here is my profile at 34.5 weeks. Everyone keeps telling me it looks like she is dropping! We will see tomorrow when I have my appointment. I have been having more contractions and my stomach gets hard as a rock. Practice makes perfect, right?!
