3 More Weeks!!

So we can finally say that our baby is FULL TERM! We are so excited that she will be here with us soon and at times wish it was sooner than later. I am having a hard time now a days just lugging her and I around. So a little bit about how she is doing: She is doing GREAT! She is growing and boy can I tell it! I finally started to swell a little bit. I have been counting my blessings so far that I have not swollen at all. But my rings are just now starting to get a little bit tight after a long day. The other odd thing is pregnancy carpel tunnel!! I hate this the most. It started with my hands just falling asleep at night, which tended to get a bit annoying. It has now progressed to not being able to write with a pencil for long at all, and my finger tips have lost feeling no matter what I do! Apparently, this is all normal, and will go away once our little princess gets here. It is crazy that having a baby in your belly can effect even your finger tips! I also have been blessed to have a wonderful baby shower thrown by a couple wonderful girl friends of mine here in Rexburg. They were so sweet to do this for me, and I was blessed to get so many things that I wouldn't have thought to buy on our own. Also, we have wonderful parents who have helped us out so much with things for the little one. We are so blessed, and thankful, for their thoughtfulness towards us and their love for us. Life is still busy, but soon Thanksgiving break will come and so will OUR BABY!!! For now, here are some pictures of her growth (and mine...)

  1. When I clicked over to your blog, I was surprised to see you guys only have 3 more weeks! I can't believe how time has gone by so fast!
    I definitely had the numbing feelings in my fingers too! It will pass, I promise!
    And I can't say enough how cute you are with your pregnant self! :D

  2. I am so glad to hear it will go away Kristen! I think it is one of my least favorite parts right now. As for time going fast, it really really has! Sometimes I still feel like we just found out we were pregnant. Thanks for the compliment, I really appreciate it! I'm sure you remember, but it is not too often that you feel "cute" at ALL when your pregnant. So thanks for brightening my day!

  3. I had the numbness in my arms this time around too!! I didn't have that with my last two so it was a new thing for me. It did go away right after I had Jackson. Good luck with the last three weeks. I am excited for you guys!
