The last week has been pretty busy for us.  Today marks 33 weeks, but at my appointment on Thursday my dr. said if baby girl doesn't come on her own before then, he is planning to induce on the 24th of July - a full 5 days earlier than my due date.  I'm excited that she'll be coming a little early and I actually plan on asking the dr. if it's possible for her to be induced on Monday, the 21st.  1 - because it's the beginning of the week and 2- because I really hope she's born on an odd numbered day.  Anyone that truly knows me, knows I don't like even numbers!  I'm still praying with all my might that she'll surprise us all and come on the 11th. 

 

My baby shower was this past Saturday and my hosts did an amazing job!  My sweet family and friends overwhelmed us with their generosity and we're pretty much ready for our sweet girl to arrive now!  There were a few duplicates that I need to go exchange, but other than that we got some great gifts to get us ready to meet her.  It was kind of hard to take a bunch of pictures, since I was the guest of honor and all, but as soon as I track them down from Kelly and Debbie I'll get a blog post written about it as well. 

 

Not surprisingly, I'm freaking tired y'all.  As the days go on this pregnancy is getting much harder.  I'm not sure if she's dropped, but I feel a ton of pressure down there and anytime I get up after laying or sitting down for longer than 20 minutes at a time is a chore.  It just plain hurts!  My feet and legs are very swollen and it feels like her little feet are trying to break my ribs.  I'm definitely uncomfortable at this point.  On a positive note, Graham bought me a little step stool for my side of the bed since I'd been having a hard time getting in and out so frequently.  It's made a huge difference!

 

I've got a dr. appointment this afternoon, so we'll see if anything has changed since the last one.  Our lamaze/baby care class is this Saturday too.  Eeeek!!  Have a great week and keep us in your prayers!
