This Time Around: Volume 6

Size of baby:  mini watermelon

Baby's size & weight:  20", 7.25lbs (at least)

Baby's development:

Nugget is developmentally ready, but continues to cook. :)

Maternity Clothes:  So. Over. Them!

Gender:  Still a surprise! (PS it's not too late to get your votes in!)

Movement: Lots! I was showing my sisters how my stomach moves in crazy waves as Nugget moves around and one of them was like, "OHMAGAH! Please make it stop! Stop doing that!" It made me laugh so hard. If I only had control of it.

Sleep: is happening in spurts. Between getting up to go to the bathroom, taking our old dogs out to go to the bathroom, moving positions to get more comfortable and adjusting the covers in between hot flashes there really isn't much room for sleep. :)

What I miss: So many things but mostly at this point it's not about what I miss it's about what I'm looking forward to.  If only I could figure out what I want first!

Food cravings: things that are easy, things that I don't have cook and things that are bad for me -- not a good combo!

Symptoms:  being sleepy, shin splints, leg cramps, random pains after sitting for a long period of time.

Cameron is:  very clingy with me right now. He may not have any clue how much is boat is about to be rocked, but he definitely knows that somethings going on with his Mama.

Tim is: ready for this baby too. He called me 3 times today wondering if I had gone into labor. I think he's ready for the waiting game to be over too, plus there's a few meetings that he wouldn't mind getting out of and this baby is pretty much the best "excuse" in the world.

What I'm looking forward to: sleeping on my stomach. having a glass of wine.  I'm looking forward to introducing Cameron to Nugget the most though. (True confession: I'm a little worried anxious about it too.)

Best moments:  We went to a wedding over the wedding and at times I felt like this belly was on display.  Not only did people ask when I was due, but when I answered "any day now", they would respond, "That's what I thought" or "It sure looks that way"!
Dancing at the same wedding and laughing at friends that specifically danced with my belly.
 
I get texts, phone calls and emails just about every day wondering if there is a baby yet. I love the love! Although, I do find some humor in the fact that people think that we could hide the fact that we've had the baby or not. I know we can be a bit sneaky and private but I promise we don't plan on hiding Nugget's arrival from anyone! :)
