36 Weeks Pregnant 4 More to go!!!

Today I had my 36 week check. I don't know what to say. There is so much that I do want to say but don't know how to put it into words.

Jaxie is the size of a crenshaw melon: if you don't know what that is this is what it looks like. They say she is  about 6 pounds and 18.5 inches long.
How does something that long fit inside someone? I have been asking that question for a while and from experience it is a very tight fit. Today when we went to the Dr. Jaxie's heart beat was 150 per minute, very good and strong heart beat. It makes me want to cry everytime we hear it. I go in every week now till she arrives.

Some things I'm going to miss about being pregnant are:

1. Feeling her move all the time.
2. Jaxie teasing her daddy by not letting him feel her move!!!
3. Seeing my belly jump or my laptop move from her kicking it.
4. The excuses of "I'm pregnant can you please move or lift that for me"
5. Wondering what she is going to look like me or her daddy
6. The excitement of the waiting game and having moms and dads calling all the time to check up on us.

Some things I'm NOT going to miss about being pregnant are:

1. Having to PEE ALL THE TIME!!!
2. Not sleeping (even though I will never get it that one back)
3. Not being able to breath
4. Not being able to bend over.
5. The HEARTBURN!!!
6. Belly rubbing up on everything and knocking things over at work

I really can't complain much about my pregnancy. It really hasn't been that bad. I haven't been sick, or in much pain. I sure the pain thing will change, but till now its been pretty good. I think we might have another one when Jaxie is older.

Now things I'm looking forward to being a "MOMMY"

1. Holding my little girl for the first time.
2. Being a mommy
3. Playing with her.
4. Making her laugh
5. Showing her off.
6. Dressing her up.
7. Taking time off of work.
8. Telling people that she is MINE!!! not having to give her back or taking turns if I dont want to.

I could go on forever, and forever, and forever. We are both so excited and can wait we want her to be well done when she decides to make her arrival.

We will keep you all posted on the weeks to come, and how we are feeling.

Oh yeah one more thing. I posted on facebook one day that I love to see and feel baby Jaxie move and my littel cousin/sister
Rylan said "wow you can actually see her move"
 I "yeah its pretty cool"
Rylan "how do you see her did you cut your self open!!"
I "ha ha no rylan I did not cut myself open you can see her move because my belly moves or jumpes when she does move or kick"
Rylan "oh that is awesome I would like to see that"
I "you might one of these days I have to be relaxed and it needs to be quite"
Rylan "why does it need to be quite"
I "because Jaxie likes to listen to people talk and listen to whats going on out here"

I thought it was pretty cute, that she was so concerned that I actually cut myself open.

Wayne has a neice Lexi and nephew Lincoln and they are convinced that if they blow on Aunt Ashley's belly button that the baby will come out.. Yeah thanks to Traci my sister in law the kids mother. I have to be on my toes at all times or they will pull up my shirt and try to blow on my belly button. I know funny right...

Well I think that will be it till next time.

  1. That is funny. Logan the other day asked if the baby would come out my belly button. It is so funny what things kids think of.
