It's Official!!

I am now 36 weeks, and am officially off of bed rest!! No more comments like: sit down......don't do that.......what are you doing.......After 5 weeks of trying to take it easy and not do anything, I am free to do what ever my heart desires.



My biggest fear is that she will now wait, no matter what I do, until 42 weeks. I would not be a happy camper!


I wanted to thank everyone for all of their prayers and services that were rendered in my and my families behalf. Many people have picked up Joe for school, sit-n-chat, or to play. Meals that were dropped off, phone calls, well wishers, gifts, and many more things.



Confession time.......I actually started doing stuff on Tuesday, like cleaning my house, taking the kids to school, driving Joe to school, shooting hoops (I was stationary), etc. I couldn't resist (poor excuse, but true). So my house is cleaner then it has been in a long time and the laundry is done and I am ready to have this baby!



For all of those who don't want to see something LARGE, close your eyes. I am the largest I have ever been and have the possibility of becoming even bigger! Alan couldn't resist taking this picture, I am always asking him if I look big from the side. The answer is "YES" but it usually comes out as laughter.

Ahhh, the official release of bedrest. I have never actually made it that far.....I think you look great. At least, you got nothing on me as far as big pregnant bellies go! Good luck and lets get that little girl here!

You look terrific!! What is your secret to having a stretch-mark-FREE belly???

This is actually the largest I have ever been in all of my pregnancies. If I go full term, as in 40-42 weeks I can promise you my belly won't look like this any more. That's 3-5 more weeks of growth!
