32 weeks.

Wow. I can hardly believe that I am nearing the end. I can definitely feel that I have hit the third trimester! I have had a major loss of appetite b/c of the misery that comes with a halfway full belly. If we eat out for dinner, I have to lean my seat back in the car just to feel comfortable. Ha! Breathing has been a little bit more difficult and I have also been extremely tired. Lincoln has been very active and its fun to sit and feel him move. The other night I was paying bill and decided to lay my clutch up on my stomach to see what he would do. It wobbled back and forth and eventually he gave it one last kick and kicked it right of my stomach. Cracked me up.

I had my 32 week appointment this week and all went well. My blood pressure is looking good and I haven't had any concerns thus far. I did ask my doctor if I was "measuring" on track. I explained to her that I have about 3-5 people I day who comment on how there is no way I am having a baby in 8 weeks! I was starting to get paranoid that I wasn't as big as everyone thought I should be. Dr. P said I was measuring right on track and to take it as a compliment! So I guess I will! I have gained weight -- believe me, I have, more than I care to admit -- its just that it has decided to evenly disperse all over my body to my hips, arms, legs, etc. Looks can be deceiving. When I wake up in the morning, I peep at my stomach with one eye open just knowing today is going to be THE day where I wake up HUGE! And I know as soon as I write this IT will happen. Ha!

We did get our crib in a couple of weeks ago and Cory worked hard to put it all together. Here are some shots from putting it together and the finished product. We have the bedding in there but not sheets yet so there is still some work to be done for sure!

We have a lot more work left to do on the room then I had planned at this point, but I have faith it will get done. It may just be a little closer to completion by February 14th then originally thought. We will post more as it comes together in the next couple of weeks.

I'll leave you with the latest belly picture! This was actually taken at 31 weeks so instead of going to the trouble for a 32 week picture I just decided to post this one.
