Lately....

The final stretch.. 35 weeks and counting.. I feel very big and very tired. I have definitely had my meltdowns here and there. My brain and my body are fighting with each other. My brain tells me I can still hike up hills and do all the things i did before and my body is telling me no with pretty intense contractions and swollen ankles. Also, these past couple of weeks i have really put on the pounds almost all of my clothes don't fit. My legs look massive and all of my shirts are too short and my lower belly shows. Sweat pants and tank tops are my best friend :)
My first mother's day and Lex made it a wonderful one. He has meetings all morning at church so when he leaves i usually get up and get in the shower. When I got out I found these beautiful flowers and such a sweet card he wrote for me. I sat on my bed in my towel and read the card, it was such a beautiful card and made all of my worries and stresses melt away. My in laws also bought me a card and a very beautiful bracelet. Mother's Day was so great!

All set up for my little man. Putting this stuff together was so fun!
These babies must know something is going on. Today Jack has followed me around everywhere and if I am sitting on a chair or anywhere for that matter Jack jumps on my lap and puts his face on my shoulder. They both are attached to my hip... I don't know what they are going to do when the baby is here.
My cake from my baby shower. Unfortunately, this is the only picture i have from my baby shower. I guess this was the most exciting thing to me :) It was delicious and the shower was amazing!
