Soooo, here we are today, May 9, 2012 and I officially hit the 30 week mark!! That means there are 10 weeks to go, or 70 days or 1,680 hours....that's a lot of numbers!!!!!!
A lot has changed. I look like I swallowed a basketball already, I can't see my toes, I have increased our water bill tremendously by all my trips to the potty, I know what noises are being made at midnight, 2 am, 3 am and 5 am now due to the frequent night time potty trips. My appetite is HUGE now....and so is my Indigestion, but I keep eating only to have Spearmint Tums be my after meal dessert! With this little lady riding so high, breathing is a chore, I'm pretty sure I have internal bruising from all of her jabs at me, and I till have 10 weeks to go!!!!!!!!!! I think she's going to be a feisty one!!
My boys think it's super neat to see her moving around in my belly. I tell them that when I push on her, she is getting mad, so Trapper tells me to make her mad all the time, so he can feel her kick me!!! Wrangler tells me that I need to "move" baby sister, so he can sit on my lap. Hunter keeps talking about when she will be 2 years old and doing the things that Wrangler is doing now. Trapper is making her "profiles" on all their Wii and Xbox games, so when she is able to play them, she will already have the things unlocked, so she can play the fun stuff!!!
As far as mommy and daddy go, I think we are still taking in the fact that we are going to have a girl. Everywhere we go, people see us, with our 3 boys, and they say..."oh, is the next one a girl"....so when we tell them "yes", we usually have to spend about 5 minutes talking to complete strangers about how our lives are going to completely change with a little girl in the picture....ummm, thanks, but YES, we know this!!! We already know this because we have NOTHING girly and there is NOTHING girly about our family!!! I look at all of the toys our boys have, and they are 100% pure boy. Monster trucks, Tractors, Trains, Snakes, dinosaurs, dragons you name it, it's all boy...there is nothing girly at our house!!!
So, as I sit here and think about what is going to happen in the next 10 weeks, and what all needs to be done, and all the preparation for this little girl, I start to panic a little bit!!! I have never been this unprepared or unorganized, I always have a plan put in place. But right now, I am just enjoying the little miracle growing inside of me. I know that things will fall in place, just like they usually do and there is nothing to worry about, other than how I am going to tie my shoes in the upcoming weeks!!!
Have a great week everyone!!
