Whoa, girl....Whoooaa.....

I need to just relax and stop wishing this pregnancy to end. I am at the 34 week mark and honestly could have 2 more months to go (if she came at 42 weeks!).

I am BIG. I grunt when I get up from a sitting or lying position. I have to put my feet up or they look like dinosour feet at the end of the day. And most recently...I have just discovered that I may not have full control of my bladder because my sweet daughter is squeezing the life out of it. I actually had to call my OB yesterday (my first weekend after hours call ever) because my mom and I were worried I was leaking amniotic fluid. NOPE! Just pee! Lovely. Sexy- Rowr!

My fingers look like sausages!

We were looking at some pictures from a couple years ago and I was longing for my old body. So thin and much tinier than it is now. I can't beleive I ever was unsatisfied with my body...how could I be so ungreatful??? Will I ever get it back???

Madelyn- so many wonderful friends and family have given you the most BEAUTIFUL and nice things at your baby showers. I have washed and folded them ALL for you and your nursery is all set. Your mommy and daddy (and Grandmas and Grandpa and aunties) are SO excited to hold you, and your aunties (and probably grandmas) will spoil you and probably give you whatever you desire. Doesn't that sound SOOOO nice? MUCH better than that stinky old uterus in there. Its a litttttle too early to come now, but don't you want to come earlier?? Like in 2-3 weeks?

Scratch that. I need to continue praying for patience and a healthy pregnancy. Patience mostly. Patience and wisdom; to have the ability to enjoy these last few weeks of it being just Ross and I.

Other details: Madelyn gets the hiccups just about once a day. She still likes to stretch out her little legs, as I frequently see and feel a foot on my right side. She seems to be measuring on time, and is very active.
