Five weeks to go!

Is it just me or is everyone pregnant :) It seems like that, sometimes! I just know I am so glad that so many of my friends are roughly due at the same time I am. Jessica is the only one I know who is having a girl, so far it's a bunch of boys! I've had a lot of fun talking about pregnancies and expectations of what the next few months will bring. Which, to me, will probably be full of surprises, little sleep, and a lot of diapers. Fortunately, Jeff informed me today that he will be helping in that department, so long as he isn't asked to nurse.

Up until recently, I was beginning to think pregnancy wasn't so bad. I never got sick, I slept at night, didn't have any aches or pains, and then suddenly one night I had a leg spasm. Then the next night I had another one. Then a few nights later I couldn't sleep because my back hurt. And that's when I realized just how uncomfortable the last couple months are. Some days I feel great, but then some days I feel like a bowling ball with toothpick legs-it's hard to get out of the car, it's hard to climb into the truck.. and as bad as I want to wear my adorable Emu boots that lace up, I pretty much can't unless Jeff does it for me. Having to bend over and tie them sideways is almost too much, it's a tough angle. Thank heavens I don't have too long to go-although I am not in a particular hurry for the little guy to come. We're dying to meet him, but it's nice being able to just carry him around and not have to worry about feedings, diaperings, and car seats.
