LARGE & OVERWHELMED

My belly is growing and growing, I feel great but some days I really feel like an elephant. I am 28 weeks and just had my doctors appointment yesterday to do the glucose test, I hate the dumb drink! The doctor said the baby sounds great and I look great but to not have another episode like I did in Philly. This pregnancy has been weird, I got a lot bigger faster but I have not put on that much weight. Sometimes I get..."wow you are HUGE," and other times I get..."are you going to give birth tomorrow?," and other times people say I look a lot smaller with this one than I did Trey. I don't know, I just know that I am carrying him a lot different...a lot lower than with Trey. He is a very active little guy and moves around so much. He moves all the time that my tummy is very tender to the touch, it feels like a big bruise or something. I keep telling myself if this little boy is more active as Trey then I am in big trouble!! Ha ha.
I have been very overwhelmed lately with everything that has been going on with moving out to Iowa, getting insurance in time for baby, closing on a house, trying to figure out how I am going to do all this by myself while Chris works, ect ect! I will have more details later, I figured I better not write everything because it just stresses me out and I am trying really hard not to be stressed because I do not want to make myself sick again. I know that life is life and sometimes you just have to deal with things that are not fun but I just feel the pregnancy me more emotional than normal. I know everything will work out and the Lord will provide a way, I am just being a hormonal prego women!
I am fat and happy though. I am excited to have have another baby and experience another everyday miracle. I have an awesome husband that works hard for our family and does so with out complaining. I have a great family that helps and support us. I really have a lot to be grateful for and I truly am thankful for all the Lord has blessed us with.

Trey loves my belly he always comes up to me and lifts up my shirt to touch it. Sometimes he wants to do it when we are not in an appropriate place..haha! I tell him.."give you little brother kisses." He leans in a says, "muah" really loud! It is really stinking cute. I don't know if he understands that there is a baby in there yet but he just loves my belly. He will even lift up his shirt and show me his belly after he hugs and kisses mine, so I do the same to his...its like our new fun game we have together. I think he will be a great big brother but I feel he will definitely be jealous at first. I know if he sees how much we love it that he will grow to love his new little brother too! Our 2 little Princes, it just seems perfect huh? What a joy it is to be a MOM!

Wow Trey really looks so much like Chris in those pictures! How fun! So, just know that we are thinking of ya here! You have a lot going on and I pray that you are well and healthy to get through it all. The Lord won't give you more than he knows you can handle, but sometimes we don't realize how much that really is. So many fun new things going on yet all big stressful things. It will all work out and we would help if we could! :) We'll just do what we can and pray! :)

You are very lucky, we all are, who have little one's come into our lives :] You look great by the way. I think everyone just has that special glow to them when they are pregnant. Very cute :) Glad things are better with you and the baby...

I don't think you look HUGE!!! I think you look great for the point you're at in pregnancy. I hope it finishes up well, without any other complications.
