I...

...feel like a balloon! I am now 29 weeks and 1 day pregnant. It's getting so close, but yet it's still so far away. At my last two doctor appointments, I measure 4 cm bigger than I am weeks (ex: at 21 weeks, I measured at 25 cm; and at 25 weeks, I measured at 29 cm). So, I expect that my appoint this week will be the same. I am guessing that I will measure about 33 cm. But, I still feel huge!

I think that the reason that I feel so big is because I go all out front with both my pregnancies. From behind, you can barely tell that I'm pregnant. I was walking back to my house the other night and looking at my shadow, I couldn't even see the slightest baby bump, and then I turned to the side, and thought, "HOLY CRAP! I'M HUGE!" It was not a good sight (for me, anyway).

Thayne is so great, though. He continues to tell me that I'm beautiful and it will only be this way for a few more months. I'm sure that he gets sick of hearing me complain, though. The worst part is, I still have like 8 more weeks of baby growing to do. I am only going to get bigger!

Other than feeling huge, I am doing really good. My feet have not begun to swell, just yet. My hands start to feel fat towards the end of the night. There are some nights that I need to take my ring off while I still can. I have one pair of "normal" jeans that I continued to button until this week. I still refuse to buy maternity jeans, though. I am slowly sleeping less and less at night these days. But, overall, I feel great! I have very few complaints about being pregnant and am so anxious to welcome this little girl into our lives

Lexi's cute little personality is really coming out lately. She is so funny! I just can't get enough of her. She has really started talking and she is hilarious. Here are just a few (more) examples of her funny personality coming out:

*When we drive in the car, if we're going down a hill or the road is bumpy, she says: "Whoa, Whoa, Whoa...Crazy!"

*She carries her baby dolls everywhere and they are either crying, laughing, or sick. She fake cries, and says: "Baby's crying...She's sad." If the baby is happy, she fake laughs. And she will even fake cough, and say: "Baby's sick..."

*She knows the names of her 2 favorite shows: Yo Gabba Gabba and Olivia. She always asks to watch, "Ya Ya". She even knows all of the characters by name. If we tell her no, she instantly asks to watch "Olivia."

*There's an episode of Yo Gabba Gabba with Jack Black. She knows when Jack is coming on and she yells, "Jack! It's Jack!" She even does the "Disco Roll" dance with Jack and the Yo Gabba Gabba people.

*Here's my favorite:

She poses for pictures and says "Cheese!" every time you get the camera out. She is obsessed with her snow boots lately. She will take her shoes off and put her boots on and wear them all over the house all night long.

I can't wait to watch her grow up more and watch this little personality of hers to come out even more. I hope that she continues to be a little bit of a goof-ball as she gets older. It sure makes for some good entertainment for Thayne and me.
