Home Stretch & Growth

Up at 4:45 - 5 a.m. this morning. This pregnancy has been interesting but I guess compared to Kate's, very normal. Thank you for all the prayers. I am thinking that after the first trimester was over, I have pretty much been getting up once a night if not twice to go to the bathroom. I don't recall that with Kate. I have been a real emotional roller coaster (which at least at the beginning). I have experienced a few other not so pleasant pregnancy effects this time too. I went to the doctor for my 33 week checkup and the belly measured in at 34 weeks. At 31 week, the belly was at 31. Interesting to see what this week's measurement is. The good news is, we are on the home stretch! Bad news is that I have a cold/sinus infection for about the 3rd or 4th time in a 1.5 months. Yeah, its ridiculous but what do you do. Here is a 32 week picture. This was taken right before Don and I left to head to T-town for the Bama/Florida game. We won that game by alot. We have since lost a game. :( Good news though, if we keep winning, it shouldn't be a problem. Just keep winning BOYS!

Countdown to Baby Boy Farmer - 38 days or less!

Countdown to Halloween - 13 days (12 for the activities)

Countdown to Thanksgiving - 38 days :)

Countdown to see Wade and Gret and baby bump - 37 days!

One more note of significance. My sweet Kate measured 35 inches at her 2 year check-up (October 13th). If you double that, that means she will be 5'10" full grown. We'll see about that! Don and I measured her at her birthday party and we measured 33.5 inches. That equates to 5'7". I would think she might be somewhere in between there. Also, she was 30 pounds! Both of these measurements were the 75-90th percentile!

Kate is "CHEW"

Today I am 33 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Rewind two years ago, I was having my first child at 33 weeks and 2 days. Pretty scary for a first time mother but I was so excited about her that it was hard for me to dwell on what could go wrong. Thankfully she is doing amazing and I thank God for that. We celebrated Kate's birth today with her Mamey and Pop, Mawmaw and Pawpaw, Aunt Tabitha, Uncle Rob, and Cousins Ryan and Reid. She loved having all of them down. I have never seen her this hyper. It kinda reminded me of my older brother when mom would let one of his friends come over, he would get so hyper. We missed you Wade and Gretchen! Here are a few pictures from her actual birthday yesterday and some from today.
