A quarter of the way through! Wait, there's not 100 weeks in a pregnancy... it just feels that way to me! Actually, we're now well into the third trimester and have just 3 short months left, 96 days. (I know my ticker says that I have over 100 days left, but that's 105 days until the due date, and we know that she'll be here 9 days before that.) At least, I hope they're short. Hopefully they'll be busy, so maybe that'll help time go by faster.
The baby is hitting a bit of a growth spurt right now, it seems that my tummy is bigger every morning, and then gets bigger as the day goes on. She kicks and squirms all day long, especially late at night. D'Laney has a new fascination with my tummy. She likes to pull my shirt up and she'll pat it and kiss my belly button. Which is cute, unless we're in public, when she gets mad that I don't let her expose me for the world to see. She seems to think that Brynna is someone who's already around, she'll go through the house yelling for her, although when you stop and ask her where Brynna is, she says, in your tummy. She so doesn't get it!
I have such an itch to get the girls' rooms switched and done. Cameron was asking last night why I was in such a hurry, and I can't explain why, it must be a pregnancy thing, but I feel like I HAVE to have it done, NOW! I don't worry that it won't be done before she gets here or that she could come early and be here any day, I just need it done so that I can see it. I still need concrete evidence that there is in fact another baby coming, maybe having a room ready for her will help. I have decided to put them in separate rooms, since it appears that we'll still be living in this house when she's born, and I was going to make them match, but I think I've changed my mind on that, too. I need to find someone to do some sewing for me, I guess. I was going to try to do it myself, but I don't trust myself to do it right, and I won't be able to stand it if it's not done right. We're not going to have to buy any furniture and very little material, so we should be able to do both rooms quickly and cheaply.
Another thing that I have to have done NOW is buy another camera. I have very very few pictures of D'Laney over the last 6 months or so, and I think that makes me a very bad momma. So I'm just going to go get one, and call it my Christmas in september present.
I think we might go to Angelo this weekend. We hate to travel two weekends in a row, but I have a doctor's appt early next week, so I'd be going anyway, and this weekend is Wall's homecoming and the Cotton Fest in Miles, so I think we're just going to go for the whole weekend.
We had a good Labor Day weekend in Iraan. Cameron played a lot of golf, we ate some good food, and played a lot of dominoes. Well, Cameron did, I just can't concentrate on a game like that right now. Maybe after the baby is born and I regain a small fraction of my former brain function, I'll enjoy it again. We also watched some awesome football games... as in, we watched OU lose! That always makes me so happy. I did hate to see Sam Bradford go down, my hatred for that school can't diminish my fondness for their quarterback, I kinda like the kid. But they would have lost anyway, so I can relish in their defeat, and their huge nosedive in the polls! Hook 'em!
I have two friends who are due in the next two weeks or so. Lauri is due in just a couple days, and Kysha has a couple of weeks left. Say a little prayer for them and their growing families if you get a chance. I think I'll be the next one to deliver, then Susan, then Marlayna, and I know that there's more, I just can't think of them. Also, a couple of Cameron's good friends from high school, the Hanna's, just got back from Ethiopia with their new little boy. Kayin is 10 months old and absolutely adorable. He has the sweetest little face! Melissa doesn't blog, as far as I know, so no link :( but both Kayin and Kurt and Melissa are so blessed that the adoption went smoothly and everyone is home safe. Lots and lots of babies! I love it!
How's that for a random post? Let me assure you that my post are much more organized than my usual thoughts through out the day.
Oh yeah! Crystal posted a pic of the Hanna's and their new little boy. Isn't he precious?!
