The Big 3-0

Wow....today I hit the big 3-0!  30 weeks!! (Not 30 years...I wish since my big 4-0 birthday is only 8 months away).  It is hard to believe, in some ways, that I'm this far along.  It often feels as though the days and weeks have been dragging along and that I've been pregnant forever.  Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful! :-)

The odd thing to know is that we found out we were pregnant when I was 4 weeks.  So, we have known for the past 26 weeks that we will be parents.  Half a year!!  The nice thing to know is that we only have 9 weeks more to go until we deliver (9 weeks plus a day or two, possibly).

Chris and I are so looking forward to meeting our little gymnast.  The baby seems to love doing acrobatics.  I'm looking forward to the birth for more than just seeing our little angel.  I'm also excited because it will finally mean a complete end to morning sickness, back aches, and the need for Tums (which have recently become my best friend)! ;) I would say it will mean the end of fatigue (which has recently restarted), but, while technically true, we will soon go into sleep deprivation mode.  However, to me that is more than worth it.

Happy 3-0 to me! :-)
