Baby Klc

31 Weeks along and finally getting around to writing again. In my defense carrying around another human being is quite tiring which leaves less time in the day to get things done. Another excuse is that we are poor and have crappy Internet, and the cherry on top of that is that my computer cord has a short and sometimes doesn't like to charge my laptop. Good news is Alex and I got sick of the computer cord shorting and decided to take measures into our own hands. I am quite proud of the splicing we did! With a little electrical tape to cover the wounds it is now working like a charm!

On to more important things.

Alex and I are soo excited to have this baby girl in our arms. My whole pregnancy has flown by and then hit a brick wall right at the third trimester. Now time is ticking by because I am actually keeping track. To be honest being pregnant has not been half bad. I am proud to say I have not thrown up once, or had any extreme bouts of heartburn. I considered myself pretty dang lucky until my legs started to swell and I now have the pregnancy waddle. Because of the swelling and my Dr's recommendations I am now the proud owner of thigh-high support hose! Which I wear daily.... but by the end of the day my legs and toes still look like sausages hooked together by a tree stump. So I have put myself on bed rest when I am not working and am trying my best to drink plenty of water! I am soo lucky to have such a wonderful husband. Honestly. He not only puts up with my mood swings, but rubs my feet every night and doesn't complain. I am soo blessed he came into my life. I really don't think anyone else could have the patience with me that he has. I know he is going to be the best daddy ever!

Here are some fun pictures over the last couple of months. We have some really great friends that let us borrow their bassinet, and swing and I had Alex put the bassinet together.

We also chose a name for our baby girl. We were going back and forth between a few and then Alex starting calling her this one day. I loved the way it sounded when he was talking to her... so it stuck.

Yesterday we also finished up our Hypnobirthing classes! That's right... this girl is going to go all natural! I am really just intrigued by the whole process and really fell in love with some of the concepts from hypnobirthing. So we are going to give it a try. Alex is very supportive of my decision and is going to make a great coach. Now all I have to do is convince him to cut the cord!
