since i'm posting this on wednesday, i'm now technically 34 1/2 weeks which means just a little over a month from having this baby! yikes. i can't even believe it! people keep asking if i'm ready...well...are you ever really ready?? we have everything we need i think for the most part. just a few more last minute things to do like pack for the hospital and all that. i also have a couple of showers coming up and i'm so excited for them! on saturday a few of my friends took me to lunch and gave me gifts for baby. it was so fun and i love getting things for our little dude! we have been very blessed so far with people being so generous and giving us things! these days i am pretty tired and achey most of the day. my back seems to hurt constantly and because he likes to be on my right side, i have like a perma-pinched nerve on the right side of my back. it's lovely :) i can tell he's beginning to run out of room in there. he stretches out and will be pounding on my bladder and then the other half of his body is clear on the far right side of my body. it's a crazy feeling! i've been sleeping ok the past few nights (knock on wood) i think because i'm so exhausted by the end of the day, especially when i work long hours. but all of the aches and pains are worth it because i'm getting a beautiful baby boy at the end of it all.
here are some of the fun things we got on saturday from my friends.
35 week belly!
baby v...this week mommy has been thinking a lot about making sure i'm the best mom i can be for you. it's a lot of pressure thinking that heavenly father is trusting me and daddy with one of his precious sons and that your life and well being is in our hands. there are so many things i want to do and so many things i don't want to do when it comes to raising you. but we just will take it one day at a time. mommy will make mistakes i'm sure of it! but be patient with me and we will learn and grow together ok? i love you more than words can express already and i haven't even seen you in person. but i feel as if i already know you in so many ways. i have loved sharing these past 8 months with you. except when i was sick that wasn't the greatest...but i still loved every minute. i know i will miss being pregnant but i can't wait to meet you and see what you look like! i hope you have your daddy's dark eyelashes! i'm pretty positive you'll have dark hair and dark eyes but daddy and i have both had dreams that you're blonde! maybe we are getting you confused with your cousin/buddy aiden baby. i don't think you two will look alike but you will be best friends for sure :) we can't wait to meet you little dude! keep kicking away and letting mommy know you're alright. i love you forever.
love, the vanchiere's
