Ok…I’m SO far behind on all this stuff. To say life has been crazy is an understatement. It’s crazy, but great. The girls are doing so well, I’m feeling great, Travis is awesome, and we’ve just been keeping ourselves extremely busy. Busy to the point where it’s almost hard to remember that we are about to have a new family member. That being said, when we do sit down and really think about what’s going to happen, we are SO thrilled and excited to welcome another little person into our world.
We hope she loves it as much as the rest of us do.
Anyway, here’s a picture of my 35 week, 6 day baby belly. I’m technically 36 weeks today, but I took the picture yesterday, so I’m still going to call this my 8 month post. When I’m around 38 weeks, I’m going to try REALLY hard to remember to write my 9 month post. Fingers crossed baby girl stays put until her due date. We’re ready…but not ready…
