31 Weeks, Little Guy!

Hi baby boy!  It's been a while since I wrote about you...I think four weeks actually!  I want to apologize up front because even if Mommy doesn't write to you nearly as much as I did with your big sis, I promise, you are JUST as loved, JUST as wanted, and we are JUST as excited about you coming into our lives!

So, over the last several weeks, we have been doing a lot of stuff - both your older sisters (Megan and Avery) have started school.  Meggie is a senior in high school!  And Avery Jo just started preschool two mornings a week.  Both are doing great - and Avery Jo is loving school - maybe even loving it a little too much because of a little boy named Logan.  She seems to have a small crush on this little guy. Here's her first day pictures...





Here's the latest and greatest from you - I go to twice/week biophysical profiles now, so I get a lot of time seeing you and even got another 3D picture of you yesterday!


Your hand is obviously right by your face...but on the left side, the other two items are your FEET!  In fact, if you look close, your arm is around your leg even!  You are all twisted up in there! And your littlest big sis was just like you...with her hands in her face, sucking on fingers and toes!

Haven't had a growth ultrasound again recently, so I'd be really interested to know how big you are right now!  Or maybe I don't want to know too!  I definitely feel large and in charge!  Like I should have four weeks left to go instead of eight!  You have been a mover and a shaker in there for the past week or so.  You feel larger in your movements...rolls and turns.  At one point with my biophysical profiles, you were head down, but just yesterday, your head was back up on my right side.  Really doesn't matter to me, as you will be coming out by c-section anyway!

You have definitely had the hiccups in there more and more.  I think yesterday was around four times...usually at least twice a day.  My only complaints are that my feet are swollen (kind of used to it now!) and I never ever get good sleep.  My hips both hurt when I sleep on my side....my left shoulder hurts.  I can't sleep on my back because it makes me feel all weak and weird.  So, I just flip flop all night long.  And getting this belly to flip and flop ain't easy either!  =)

Lastly, you were showered with love last weekend with a baby shower!  We had so much fun just getting together and eating yummy food and fun candy!  Shelly and Mary put it on and did an amazing job.  Your Mommy totally felt loved!  And you were loved on too!  Here's a few pics!








Love you little boy!  Stay in there a little while longer, but we can't wait to meet you!!!!!!
