Pregnancy - 31 weeks

I might not blog about it much, but our pregnancy is moving right along and will be over before I know it. I am 31 weeks but will have baby Carmen at 39, so 8 more weeks! Yikes and hooray at the same time!

My aunt Rosy did our sonogram 3d pictures a few days ago and we got to see a glimpse of our baby!! She’s precious!!

She has round cheeks, a round face, and a perfect little nose and lips. Technology is amazing… Vince was so cute. I showed him the picture on my phone and he kissed it, hugged the phone, and said, "I love you baby Carmen in mommy's belly"...

And here I am last week at 30 weeks.. with my #1 little boy.

I have always maintained I feel great and wouldn’t know I was pregnant if it weren’t for the big belly… but I’m starting to feel it. My feet hurt when I am on them a lot. It’s hard to bend down to get things. I have to use the rail to help climb stairs. And I am getting charlie horses which are the worst pains I’ve ever experienced behind labor! My calves feel like rocks now. I still don’t think I am waddling though… but I do have 8 weeks left so I’m sure I will get there.

Things are coming along on getting ready for baby girl. A dear friend gave me all her daughter’s under 2 wardrobe! Talk about being overwhelmed! Take a look at my living room… and at this point, I have already sorted and taken about a third of things upstairs! [Notice the 40+ shoes in bins stacked up by size!] We are so so lucky to have wonderful friends that want to give us their beautiful clothes. The closet is full of 0-12 month stuff and I am putting all 12+ away for later.

We still need some things... but one things for sure... she will be clothed!!
