Week 31

He is about the size of a coconut!

Well here we go!

We are winding down to the last 9 weeks of pregnancy.

So crazy.

I am very excited and anxious and nervous!

Time has been flying by and I've been trying to ignore the fact that it is so close.

I feel like a kid myself,

I know I've said that in previous posts,

but how can I be a mom?

haha it just seems like it isn't real and if I start working out hard again I won't have this huge lump on my stomach that moves a lot.

Which he has started to stretch A LOT.

Don't get me wrong I want this little guy more than anything but I have no idea how God expects me to do this!

But through him and with LOTS of faith I know I can make it...

Lately It's been a little harder than normal because I've been trying to take on my normal duties plus some so that Jared(my hubs) doesn't have to do anything.

He is currently studying for the MCAT(it is a qualifier test to get into medical school)

So he is studying day and night!

I honestly don't know how he does it!

and on Tuesday this week he took me to 7 peaks water park(we have a pass of all passes)

and he really could have used that study time, but I am so grateful he loves me so much!

I've been trying to have dinner ready for him when he gets home, laundry done and folded and put away(we normal wash our clothes together but put our own clothes away, but I've told him I will take care of it while he studies for the MCAT), dishes, cleaning, registering for the baby, running errands for him and me, blogging, going on walks, chasing my neighbors wild turkeys out of our garden, AND SOOO much more, so you can see how I am almost always behind on my posts!

As I write this I have a million other To Do's I have running through my mind.

but for me at least pregnancy has really limited me in my stamina,

I can do this for a while then I need to relax.

All I can do is pray I can do all of this!

Thank freaking goodness this baby is due after this test because I could NOT do that alone!

Well I'm hanging in there for a couple more weeks then we will head down to ST. George to take the blessed test.

(Any prayers will be MUCH appreciated he has been working SO hard)

On a very happy note the baby is healthy and moving A LOT

I read a Dr. Seuss book to him when he was rolling and rolling and pushing and kicking

(this was when I wanted to sleep about 7:30am, I most definitely am not an early riser....),

after I read the story he had pretty much stopped moving haha I guess I read him to sleep and I was soon able to go back to sleep too so wonderful!

I've had lots of back pain and a few headaches.

The back pain in bearable but I'd prefer not to have it.

And with the headaches I jump in the shower and let hot water hit my neck and head and I'm a Billion times better when I get out,

showers are one of my favorite things lately!

Oh and shaving my legs.. wow I didn't even think about how hard that would be!

my stomach gets in the way of EVERYTHING!

I cannot bend any which way I can bend one way or no way! hahaha

Sometimes I feel like this baby is really proper or something... Because I can only sit with really good posture or he pushes in spots that do Not feel good.

Not a terrible thing but sometimes I like to curl up but not in his agenda!

hahaha sooo earlier I mentioned chasing turkeys out of our garden...

Our neighbor has a few farm animals like sheep, horses, chickens, etc, and then the evil wild turkeys..

They pick at our garden and poop everywhere!!

 oh and my dog... she loves to roll in it.. DISCUSTING and it stinks!

so the mama turkeys had baby turkeys and usually the babies don't make it(varmints get them)

but this year there were no varmints to get them and there are about 10 babies who follow their mama's everywhere...

Like into our garden to eat our peas... grr!

so I'm sure my neighbors get a kick out of it everything they see this pregnant girl run out into the yard with a broom running in circles...

Not the most fun thing to do but if it saves my parents garden so be it!

That was my random rant of the day I had to share it with someone...

Back on track...

So I am doing great other than a few minor things,

I'm so excited to meet my little man, I hope he looks like Jared!

And I'm excited to show him to everyone!

Kind of like this.. hahaha

I have nothing to complain about and I feel very very lucky!

Well next week I believe is my last 4 week vistit I move to the 2 week visits wooooo

I hope I get to see him on an ultrasound again soon!

I wish I could look at him all day!

Well hopefully this post wasn't toooo scatter brained..

Pregnancy and life has done that to me! haha

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day! =)
