30 Weeks

30 Weeks

You are starting to move a ton more. Both Maggie and Sam have been wanted to feel you move more. Sam laughs at the idea that you are kicking me and punching me from the inside. He loves screaming hi to you through my belly and swears you can smell our food. Maggie is more sweet about it. It amazes her how you move across my belly. She keeps asking if she gets to carry you around once you come because she is older now than when Millie was born. I am having to start putting naps back into the daily routine. I am still hot, my legs look my mom legs, my feet can get so swollen that I can't wear certain food. I love you still and can't believe that you will be here sooner than later.

28 Weeks

28 Weeks

I was so excited to turn 28 weeks in Oregon because that means I am officially in my third trimester. Uncle Josh was there, so I tried to be as obnoxious as I could about it to him, saying things like, "Josh can you take my plate for me, I'm in my third trimester." or "Josh, can you get me a glass of water, I am in third trimester." I love how he ran with it and even bought me chocolate ice cream. By the end, I think I said the words "third trimester" at least 50 times in the course of 3 days. The night of this photo, we went to First Friday Art Walk in Silverton. I was starting to get a head cold, but when we were there, I was feeling so much pain in my "woo ha". We came home and I just curled up on the couch, honestly believing that I was going into labor. It was so late and being pregnant makes me quite irrational. I was thinking about if you came early and had to be in the NICU, would the kids start school late in Idaho, would I have to home school them, or go to school for two months in Oregon. In the morning, I felt fine and had to tell your dad all the crazy thoughts I had with it. He laughed and said that if I was to deliver early, Oregon would be the best place. Thank goodness you stayed in because we want you to be as healthy as possible.
