38 Weeks and Waiting...

I'm sorry if you're getting bored of pregnancy blog posts. I am too. I feel like I'm so ready to be done with this, even though it really hasn't been that bad. The weather is cooling off and I'm not even that big. I can still put on my socks, I definitely couldn't with Lucas at this point. Me and the baby are definitely running out of room in this belly, though. She seems to think it's okay to kick my ribs and crowd my lungs, two things Lucas never did. Oh well, she will be here soon enough and then I'll miss it. 

I'm really enjoying comparing my belly with Lucas to my belly this time around. Especially since I look so much better this time. I'm holding steady at 30 lbs of weight gain with this one. Pretty good compared to my 50 lbs with Lucas. Look at that face! I think I had an extra 20 lbs just in my face. Some of it was probably in my feet too, but I didn't take pictures of that.
Lucas has been really anxious about getting the baby out too. He asks me all the time if we can go to the doctor and get her out. I had an appointment yesterday and things are progressing, but nothing that suggests I'll go into labor at any moment. Oh well. We're just going to try to enjoy the long weekend and do something non baby related so I have something besides a belly picture or baby crafts to post on next week. Unless I have the baby of course. Lucas was born over Memorial Day weekend so I thought it would be really funny if this baby was born over Labor day weekend. I'm keeping my fingers crossed...

Gee, for 37 weeks you look pretty skinny. Your back must be killing you. It looks like she is nestled around your spine.

That's cute that Lucas is so excited to see his baby sister. I'm excited to see her too.
