Well... here we are at Week 35 1/2. This is the latest belly pic. (Don't mind the baby mess in the background. This is pretty much standard in our house right now.) Jason and I had a fundraising event for his work this weekend. It was nice to be able to borrow a maternity dress from my friend Arian. Between all of us girls we are starting quite a collection of cute preggers clothes.
Now for the update-Okay, so far I think I have stayed pretty positive and upbeat during my pregnancy. (Maybe Jason would disagree) But really, I haven't had that much to complain about. No real morning sickness or other complications.. I hadn't even gained as much weight as I thought I would. BUT - today I am going to complain. Please skip the next part of this blog if you don't want to hear it. These are the top 5 reasons why I am ready to be done being pregnant.
1. Heartburn - constant indigestion and acid reflux. Whether I eat or don't eat.... no amount of doctor prescribed antacid can relieve it!
2. Lack of Sleep- Just can't get comfy or stay asleep for more than three or four hours at a time.
3. Frequent Trips to the Bathroom- nuff said
4. Back Pain- Random back and hip pain. Strikes at odd times- like walking down the hallway at school or strolling through the grocery store.
5. Worry- The worrying has kicked in now. Worrying about the birth. Worrying about bringing the baby home after the birth. Worrying about when the baby is in middle school. Ugh... there is a lot you can worry about if you let yourself. Also, as of last week our darling daughter STILL has not turned from her breech position. So it is looking more and more likely that I will be having a C-section birth. We just hope that she is happy and healthy when born. Keep us in your prayers!

Hi Annie....Just catching up again on your progress. Love the dress and love the colors in the baby's room. Looks like the Winnie the Poh car carrier cover I made for you fits right in. What are you going to name her. If she decides to be late I hope she holds off until March 20th...my birtday. Love... Aunt Joan
