Well we are in our 36th week, and mommy is feeling EVER SO pregnant! I am so big, and it's harder to breath, walk, sit, sleep, pretty much everything is a lot harder now. Hahahaha... This is usually when I start to feel everything, and it's thee most difficult time of the whole pregnancy. All I want now is to have you in my arms, and snuggle your little face :) I am thankful to Jesus though that you are still safe and sound inside my tummy and growing healthy and strong. I want you to come when you're good and ready, so ignore my silly comments. Hahaha... I wrote a song called, "Come on Emma." But it's just a joke, and you don't have to come until you are ready ;) I am just sooooooooooooooooo excited beyond belief to meet you, and to dress you in your cute little girlie clothes! I've never ever had a baby girl before! This is so new and exciting!
Funny things I've noticed about my recent pregnant self:
When I walk up and down the stairs now, THEY CREEK!!! Hahahahahahahahahaha! I am finally heavy enough to make the stairs creek! That was kind of funny because I used to be able to sneak up those stairs like a mouse, and now I'm like a Moose! heehee... Another funny thing is when your daddy opens the door just enough to slide out, it's not wide enough for me!!! We started cracking up, because we have to open the door just enough to slide through since it's squeaky and we don't want to wake up Eli when he is napping. So, your daddy slid though, and I couldn't fit! We both thought that was hilarious! Also, I had to buy two pairs of cheap shoes that are half a size bigger because my feet are a bit swollen. That was fun though, I like shoes ;) Also, I told your daddy that now walking up the stairs feels like I've just ran a 5 mile marathon... I literally have to take a break half way up! Your auntie Melissa thought that was funny and said I should keep a bottle of water on the middle step for my breaks. hahahahaha... Another funny thing is that it takes me way longer to get ready now because 1) I can't ever decide what to wear since most of my clothes don't quite fit right, and if it were up to me I would go to church in sweats and your dad's t-shirt, 2) It takes too long to blow dry my messy hair, so I have to take breaks in between blow drying, 3) When I put on the little makeup that I have the energy to put on, there are times when I have to do it in steps between breaks! Haha and 4) I always spill something on whatever I am wearing, usually in the tummy area... It's been super hot here lately, and although I enjoy warm weather, and sunny days, I also feel very tired, hot and uncomfortable being prego in the heat. I did hear that it's harder to be pregnant in the summer, and I guess I kind of agree, but it's not unbearable. I found it kind of difficult to be pregnant and sick in Seattle since it was pouring most the time, and I wanted to get out and walk and feel the fresh Seattle air. Those days were tough, but when it wasn't raining, I was able to walk to Pikes Market and all kinds of fun places! Here, I can't really walk anywhere exciting... Hahaha... I have enjoyed both of my pregnancies in very different ways though. I'm glad I got to experience such different environments for each :)
Ok love bug, I better go get the banana bread out of the oven! I love you Emmasita!
