32 Weeks...Only 8 Left to Go!


Here I am at 32 weeks. I seriously can't believe I only have 8 left! We're getting pretty excited/nervous to be parents. It'll be fun though, even if we kind of miss the life we had before the baby came. I have had a great time getting ready for the little guy. My nesting instincts are hitting full force! I feel the overwhelming need to clean and organize everything. Emerson's new trick is kicking mommy in the ribs on the right side over and over again. He likes to stretch my ribs out as far as they can go. It feels really weird. I think it's pretty cute when he gets the hiccups, but it always seems to happen (along with his kicking fits) right when I lay down to go to sleep. I have a feeling that this is a sign of things to come... :)

Oh my heavens. I can't believe it's so close! Don't worry about labor. I didn't take a single class and everything was awesome. I'd do it again in a heart beat. Once you have that sweet little boy in your arms everything is forgotten. I just have one tip for you. Epidural. And another tip for that one. Don't flinch.

I can't believe you are almost due! will you be delivering in Logan? probably - I'm so excited for you! Even though I don't have any kids of my own I feel like I live in a newborn nursery (well at least 2 days of the week!). Anyways--YAY for you! I hope he sleeps great and his kicking is just something he does because he is trying to find a comfortable spot to sleep!!

Seriously, you only have 8 weeks left? You look amazing! I just can't believe you're in the single digits and counting down. Makes me feel like I have a LONG ways to go, when I'm really only 9 weeks behind you. And just a couple months from now all that rib stretching will be nothing more than a memory when your perfect little boy is bundled in your arms. :)
