Wow.
Our baby shower was amazing. My mom did an awesome job of planning and making these amazing cupcakes with fondant and gum paste (which we learned about at a class we took together!) Plus, lots of people worked together to make it happen. We were amazingly blessed with love and showered with the gifts we needed! It was so much fun, too.
Monday was another doctor's appointment. She's grown to 37 cm high (well...the uterus, that is!) and she is apparently in the right position. I also lost 4 pounds in the past two weeks (before that I had gained 8 in three weeks! Weirdo body.) So that's what's going on in the doctor appointment world of pregnancy. Still spending very little time with the doctor!
We just had our third birthing class this past Monday. We really enjoyed the first two classes, but this last one I was antsy the entire time, bored from sitting and staring at a screen. (Yet all my days of college were filled with such things! How did I ever do that?) Then, we went on a tour of the labor and delivery section of the hospital, as well as the recovery rooms and the nursery. We saw the babies!! They were absolutely adorable and beautiful little humans.
---I am actually housing one right now!---
Baby girl is moving around so much these days. She's poking out with elbows and feet(?) while I can barely stand up when she's pressing on my bladder. I also am getting up 3-4 times every night with a somehow FULL bladder each and every time! Like my friend Rose and I said, I guess God uses this experience to prepare us for when baby is here and waking up at night just as frequently as our pee breaks :)
Speaking of Rose, she had her beautiful baby girl last week. She is so precious and I'm really looking forward to getting to know her, especially since she and our baby will be so close in age!! How special is that!?
In other news (non-baby related) I'm getting ready to release my first book! "How & Why to: Pray for Healing, Pray in Tongues & Give Prophecy." It's been a long time coming, so I'm feeling great about it--it's about time that it comes out! It will be sold on amazon.com as well as createspace.com, but I'll be sure to share more on all of that at another time!
With love & blessings & so much excitement for the next month and a half,
