Updates =)

It's been pretty crazy the last few weeks here! Some days I feel like it will be forever before I have this baby. Then when I sit back and look at it I can't believe how fast the time has actually gone! Before we know it, Lord willing we'll be welcoming our baby. So much has happened this past year and when I think about it Adam and I have been truly blessed, in ways we never expected. We can only thank God for everything he's given us and some of the lessons we've had to learn.

Coming up for us is the big move! We get our house...THIS WEEK! Thursday is the closing date, Adams pretty excited, I think I am too but my emotions are downplayed because I just want to be settled and having this baby! =) It's going to be a busy month for us, but soon we'll be able to enjoy it. Adam and Dad have it all planned out so we can get the house cleaned and ready for us to move in as soon as possible. We're looking at the second weekend in June as a move in date.

We saw our Dr. today and so far everything with the baby is looking good! She's already in the head down position (believe me I feel it these days!!) My Dr. wants me to go on long walks, so she stays that way and that her head will go further down (easier when it comes time for labor) Except I'm in so much pain now I'm not sure I want her head any lower! I can barely get out of bed these days and hardly sleep. I'm always running to the washroom...and by running I mean 20 minutes of trying to get my big belly out of the bed, slowly standing up and getting my legs to work, then walking like I should have a cain to the washroom. My husband is amazing though and he bought me one of those pregnancy pillows! I know it seems like a waste of money and you probably think how is that any better than a normal body pillow...let me tell you, it's made all the difference in the world! I can actually move during the day now! And I sleep a little bit more than I did with less tossing and turning. I recommend this pillow to anyone pregnant who cannot get comfortable. This is all going to be worth it soon and now I'm starting to see the finish line! Only 8 more weeks, I never thought I'd make it this far! =)

The weather has been such a drag lately, rain all the time with about one day of sun thrown in there. I know we shouldn't complain, but it's hard to feel energized when it's so dark and gloomy all the time. Unfortunately the lack of sun and heat hasn't done anything for the swelling I've had. I'm scared what I'm going to look like when we finally do get nice weather! Sunday evening I went to church and was fine, but part way through the message I had to take my sandals off because my feet were hurting a lot. After the service I went to put my sandals back on and one barely fit and the other not at all! I had to go home with one sandal off...it was just a bit embarrassing.
