31 and 32 Weeks

I realize I have been a slacker in posting lately and I really have no excuse...other than the fact that I'm more tired these days and I'm in major nesting mode. I finally thought to have Jon take another picture today of my belly at 32 weeks since we'll be 33 weeks tomorrow!! I can't believe we only have 7 weeks left until our baby boy is here (give or take some, I'm sure!). In my last post I stated that I didn't think my belly could get any bigger...well it has and I'm sure it will continue to do so. Exhibit A is the most recent picture taken today at 32 weeks, 6 days in the green shirt. The one in the leopard print dress was taken at 31 weeks. I will say, however, that maternity shirts are not that flattering. No matter how cute the shirt is on the hanger, when you put it on you will automatically gain at least 10 pounds. Or that's what I'm telling myself anyway! :) Anyway...I am now in the awkward and hard to get around stage of pregnancy. I can no longer see my feet unless I bend over (which is uncomfortable) so everyday things like picking up something off the floor or putting on my socks or shoes are now becoming a major chore! However, if that is the least of my problems, I'll consider myself VERY blessed.

All in all I am feeling great. I feel him move all the time now and those movements get harder and stronger everyday. Now I can look down at my belly and see my whole stomach move when he really gets going. Today I was laying down and I sat up and my belly was lopsided....apparently he had settled in on one side. It was the neatest thing to see. Jon's also been able to see him move several times. He really gets going at night but I also feel him off and on more during the day too. I can't tell yet if he's turned but I can tell he's getting longer and bigger because I can feel movement at the top and bottom of my belly at the same time. He is also an early riser which means that mommy is now an early riser! It's the greatest feeling in the world to feel him moving around....I am so thankful that I've gotten to experience being pregnant! We go back to the doctor this Wednesday for our 33 week check-up. Please keep praying that all goes well.
