halfway...

Yes! Today I am halfway done being pregnant....It is amazing to me how much different it is being pregnant in your 30's than in your 20's...there is a reason people have kids younger :)  I don't know why it is harder this time...maybe because I have 3 other kids running around and I am running around more w/them....or that i'm older....or maybe it's always this hard and I am just forgetting :)

Actually, it's TONS better than it was the first 14-17 weeks....I am on lots of Iron now and taking it religiously...and it has helped soo much!  I think December has just gotten so busy with "stuff"...sheesh! Does everything have to be planned for Christmas?  It's not really Christmas and shopping that is hard...it's all the other things that come up in December......and I know that is true for everyone...everyone is busy...and a free night with nothing going on is PRICELESS!!!!!

But we are alll so excited to meet this little guy...the kids can hardly wait!! It is a lot more fun this time around with the kids old enough to be involved and get excited.  And I am in no hurry for this child to be born....because I know what is to come after...and I am not ready for that just yet.....not yet!

I feel the same way! I am in no hurry to get this baby out! once the baby is born, that means I have 5 kids, and I am not ready for that! ahah! I am happy to go the full 40 weeks!! ha!! we shall see how I feel at 39 weeks and I am as huge as a SUV, maybe I will change my mind and go a week early! haha!
