Um, I'm lazy!

Yes, I did have intentions of getting all caught up on the blog before I had the baby but, um, I've been really lazy.  I have been reading like a maniac, I can't get enough of it.  So that's pretty much what I do at night instead of blog.  I do plan on taking a 39 week photo of myself.  I'm gigantic and I am ready to have this baby!  Well, I'm ready to not be pregnant anymore but I'm a little nervous to have another child, especially baby.  Babies are a lot of work.  :)  A little late now but we are excited.  We are super excited to find out if the baby is a boy or girl.  The anticipation is killing me.  Dan and I love surprises but it is causing me some serious anxiety.  This girl like to plan.  I will try to get some pictures of the new babe up as soon as possible but I clearly can't guarantee anything.  If I can pull myself away from a nursing baby, a breastpump (hoping to build up a nice supply in case I lose my milk), 2 other needy children, and a good book I will update the blog.
I love my doctor and he is inducing me Friday, October 4th.  We have to be there at 6:45 a.m. so the kids are sleeping at Mom and Dad S for the night.  You better believe your sweet bippy Dan and I are going out to dinner alone after we drop the kids off tomorrow night.  ;-)  Last date night for a while.  Hoping that this induction goes quickly.  Sam took forever but Ellie came super quick so hoping for a quick and "easy" labor and delivery.  And of course a beautiful, healthy baby.

I wanted to put down how the remainder of the pregnancy has gone real quick.  I have actually been feeling pretty good.  I have continued to work out.  I do the GPP workout for the day, modified of course where I need to.  I haven't been able to run or even walk for a workout for probably 2 months or so.  This time around it just pulls some ligaments way deep inside and makes it so painful.  The elliptical is pretty much the only cardio I can do that doesn't kill me.  I've gained around 30 pounds.  Some days more, some days less.  It has been fluctuating the last month.  I have still been having a hard time with veggies and I'm hoping that comes back after baby.  I nested like crazy this pregnancy.  Painting rooms, dejunking and finally getting things organized that I have put off for far too long.  Um, I'm sure I am forgetting a ton of stuff but those are the things I can think of now.  The baby is going into Sam's room b/c he is a way better (deeper) sleeper then Ellie.  I have boys and girls clothes washed and I think we're ready to go.

Super excited for Conference this weekend as well.  Can't wait to hold a little slice of heaven in my arms as I listen to the apostles speak.  I love the hospital stay, I'm not going to lie.  A little more ice, please?!?!  :)


And just so I don't have a post without a picture.  My kids are awesome!!
