35 Weeks


I realize that I haven't really documented anything about this pregnancy in any way. This blog is just about as close as I come to journaling most of the time. I think that the only pictures we've taken were on our California trip a month ago, and I think I've already posted these.
It hits me over and over again how close we are to having 2 kids! I'm definitely bigger this time around, which is nice to know baby girl is growing well, and that we don't have to deal with all the extra appointments and such that we had to towards the end with William. It was fun to have the extra ultrasounds, though! Our doctor did say she wants to do a quick ultrasound at the clinic at my next appointment to check fluids because they were the big problem at the end of pregnancy with William, but she's not worried. It'll be fun to see baby girl! We can't wait to meet her. She seems a lot calmer than William (I swear he poked and jabbed constantly), and it'll be fun to see how they are alike and different. William talks about babies more and more as we move furniture around in his room, and do more baby prep. He is still so sweet to our little nephew Dallin and has been playing with my old cabbage patch dolls a lot. He loves to rub my belly and say "baby!". 
Back pain and reflux have made more of a presence this time around than they did with William, and I can't wait to be able to roll over without waking myself up at night! I'm grateful for shoes that slip on and off so easily, and that William loves wearing his fireman rainboots, because he can put those on all by himself. Danny takes such good care of us. I definitely scored when I married him!
Our little stinkerbug turns 2 on Sunday. It blows me away to look at how far our family has come, and how much it'll change in a months time!
