29 weeks


I can't believe it has been 3 weeks since my last post! I really do not know where the time is going. At the beginning of my pregnancy time seem to drag on and it felt like it took forever for another week to pass; now the time is just flying by!
We had a great trip to St. John. It was so nice and relaxing. We spent a lot of time hanging out by the pool at our villa and on the beach. We did an Ocean Runner trip to Willy T's and Yost and between Woody's and Skinny Legs, we ate more cheeseburgers than I have probably eaten in the last year. We also got to see some old friends (like Shadow, Island Tom, Chad and Todd, and even Lindy and Greenie)and celebrate with Tony and Ziya (they are getting married any day now). I will see if I can get some pictures from Courtney and post a link.
We got our new camera! I think that was a big part of why I haven't posted. It is a Canon Powershot and is basically the 2008 version of the camera that broke. I love it and can't wait to use it to take lots of pictures of Liam!
Not much new to report with the pregnancy. I did have a doctor's appointment this week and everything looked great. So far my pregnancy has been completely textbook and complication free. Let's just hope the last 10 weeks are that way as well! I finally found out the results of my GD test and I passed! I was a little nervous because they never called to tell me either way and I just hoped that meant everything was fine and was able to confirm when I went for this last appointment. I am hoping we will get another ultrasound before Liam arrives but am not so sure that will happen. The doctor said maybe we would do another one closer to my due date to check on his position and size but that we would just have to wait and see. I am definitely getting bigger, as you can see by the belly shot. It is difficult to get comfortable in any position other than laying down. My lower back continues to hurt and I feel like I have to pee every five minutes! I ordered some new tops because I could not longer squeeze into the prepregnancy ones but my most comfortable options right now are my few maternity dresses.
My mom booked her ticket to come out here for Liam's birth and I am really excited about that. Dow has been great about everything but for things like this you just need your mama! She booked it for a few days before his due date and is staying for several weeks. Now we just hope that he cooperates and doesn't come early!
