Just Ten

Ten....just ten. That's how many weeks I have left until we get to hold this sweet little boy! Ten more weeks until our quiet apartment becomes not so quiet anymore. Ten more weeks until our lives will officially change forever. It's actually quite scary.

Not gonna lie, I'm more than excited about this baby boy, but the thought of him being here in just ten short weeks freaks me out to no end. Ty and I were laying in bed in the other night talking and even though we see and feel him move everyday, and there is piles of baby stuff in the spare bedroom  it still doesn't feel real that we are going to have a baby. But ready or not he is coming.

This third trimester is terrible and I am more than ready to be done with being pregnant. I can no longer lay on my back, it's either the right side or the left. Which ever side Landon prefers me to sleep on. If I'm not on the side he wants he will kick on the side that I'm laying on till I move. I am now permanently uncomfortable. No matter how I sit, stand or lay I'm dying. I can't eat very much at meal times because I'm running out of room. Landon has decided that pressing an arm or a leg against my ribs is a fun activity and I ALWAYS have to pee. Funny story actually, we were coming home one day and as we were walking up the stairs I sneezed....and peed myself a little. It was so funny that I couldn't even be mad or embarrassed.

Don't get me wrong, I know it just sounded like this is some terrible experience, it's really not. For all of you that have been pregnant understand that you get to a certain point and your just done. I love feeling him kick everyday and watching my stomach look like a water bed. It's amazing that a woman's body as the ability to create such a thing and I am more than grateful that Heavenly Father blessed us with this chance to become parents.

And honestly, I can't complain too much because this has been a SUPER easy pregnancy, and I couldn't be happier with everything that has happened. I'm still in my normal clothes, no maternity yet. No stretch marks...just my belly button looks super weird. And I've had very minimal swelling. One thing that I love about all the crazy hormones that go on when your pregnant is that my hair has gotten longer, and has been growing faster! Ty doesn't have much to complain about....at least that's what he tells me. Except that I've become more stubborn. But overall, this pregnancy has been pretty nice to the both of us!

Now it's time for us to get things in gear and start clearing out the spare bedroom to make room for this little boy. I'm pretty excited about walking past that room to see just baby stuff, and just to start setting stuff up/decorating in general.

It's crazy how fast time has flown, and we're now at the home stretch. Weird to think we found out we were pregnant back in November and now we're here. But even though we're super excited to meet him, he is still not allowed to come before his due date. Sorry Landon, your mom and dad want to finish finals first!

Ten weeks little man, just ten more weeks, and you are going to completely change our world:)
