Countdown begins?!

I had another doctor appointment today and they checked my cervix this time. I am now about a centimeter dilated and 50-60% effaced. Also, the baby is stationed around the -1 to 0 mark. She said I could go within the next couple of weeks, but I know better than to think that! I'm just going to be pessimistically optimistic about that! He has definitely dropped, though! I can tell because I feel the added pressure on my pelvis (and bladder!). He is head down, facing my back, but he really likes to stick his foot in my ribs and push his butt out as far as possible at my belly button. I have stretch marks all around my belly button from this kid! I thought I had a bruise, too, but it just turned out to be a very peculiar circular stretch mark! Oh, the joys of being pregnant.. Everyone tells me to sleep while I still can, but I think they've forgotten how completely uncomfortable it is to try to sleep with a watermelon that beats you in your sleep! :)

Is that a Basketball?!

Wow! I totally just realized the other day that I only have 7 weeks left! Crazy! I'm now 33 weeks pregnant and cannot imagine getting any bigger, although I know its going to happen! We're almost done with our birthing prep classes and just need to pick up about $250 worth of baby stuff left on our registries! Luckily, the gift cards and money we received from the showers amounts to... $250! Amazing how that worked out, huh?!

I had my doctor appointment last Friday and everything is still going well. I measured 32 cm, which is right on, even though everyone always thinks I look way huge for how far along I am.. Oh well! I've gained a little over 25 lbs at this point in the pregnancy.. I can't wait to lose it! I wouldn't be so upset with gaining so much weight if it were just my belly, but I now have huge arms and legs and even a double chin! It's so reassuring to see all my friends that have had babies and how quickly they lose that baby weight! I will say this, though, I'm not complaining about going up 2 cup sizes!! haha!

Alicia's Wedding & Christa's baby!

Alicia and David's ceremony turned out amazing! The weather was perfect and the location was beautiful! David gave Bailey a ring as well! They make such a cute little family! Alicia's dress was so gorgeous and her ring.. talk about major bling! :)


The drive down was a bit uncomfortable, considering I was 32 weeks pregnant! We had fun hanging out with family, though!


I love my little asian man!! Isaac, of course, had to show off his newfound talent of "popping" the fans open! haha! He's so cute!!

On our way back home from the wedding, we stopped by one of my best friend's from college and saw her new baby! Christa looks great already, and its only been 3 weeks since she had little Saebra! The baby was adorable! She slept pretty much the entire time we were there, but we did get a little peek at those beautiful baby eyes!
