35 Weeks

This isn't the greatest picture... Sophie took it in the dark basement but it'll do. I have to say that the last three times I've been pregnant I really enjoyed it for the most part, and even though Nora and Miles were 3 and 4 days late I was still doing fine. This time I am already feeling ready to be done! I wouldn't complain one teeny bit if this baby came early. Maybe it's the fact that I've never had three kids to take care of while being pregnant, or maybe it's the fact that I've already surpassed the weight I was at when I delivered Miles (yikes). But - this baby will come when it's good and ready! So I will try to wait patiently until then... and to lay off the sweets, too!

P.S. See that super cute yellow microfiber chair in the picture? I picked it up for FREE on the curb last year and just realized I don't think I ever mentioned it. The only thing better than finding good stuff at the thrift store is finding good stuff on the curb. I loaded it and a table into the car and had to make all the kids walk back home while I drove beside them. Luckily we were pretty close to home. :)

35 weeks, I still can't believe it!

And the mental image of you making your kids walk home so you could fit the stuff in your car is hilarious!!

i agree you look GREAT!! It is tough towards the end. I really thought I was going to go early, since Corey and Chloe were early. So I am really trying to be patient. That's awesome about the free chair and table.

Look how cute you look! There is nothing more awesome than seeing my daughters, and daughter-in-law pregnant with my grandbabies!!!
You are looking pretty ready! I can't wait, but I hope you wait for me to get there! Love you so much!

You look great! I have to say I am not one to have enjoyed either of my pregnancies particularly. but maybe that is because I carry around 9lb babies! I have gone past my due date both times, the first time 2 weeks! I hope for your sake this baby stays just long enough to be perfectly healthy and comes just early enought to give you a little relief! Best wishes!

Still BEAUTIFUL as ever though! I seriously wish I could look at awesome 35 weeks pregnant. Its been a while since I've looked at blogs. It is SO GOOD to read about and see pics of your cute family. We sure miss you guys! Hang in there! Well, I have to say you've given me a little more motivation to WAIT a while still before considering number four. Mainly it was just the sentence of have never had 3 kids while being pregnant before. :0 Not sure I'm ready for that for a while. Also, instead of commenting on a couple posts down, I'll just do it here. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Love story about Miles!! I can't stop laughing! You worded it SO well I feel like I can envision it all! Its Awesome! Also if either of my boys ever want to play with or carry around a baby or doll, I think I will use your post to show Brady that its all okay! :) LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! So excited for you guys and your upcoming addition!!!! Is Sophie ready for 2nd grade?! Yikes! I still can't believe Tayson's going into 1st! Oh wait, and you've got a kindergartener too. I'm sure Nora is Ecstatic! Oh and if it makes you feel any better I gained 52 with Tayson and 48lbs with both Cam and Baylee. ughh!

Claire just came into the room while I was looking at your picture and she pointed at it and said, "Mom". So hopefully she means that I look as cute as you are!

You really do look great! How exciting that #4 is so close! I am always ready to be done the last month - I get a little obsessed with what I can do to make it come early! Good luck!
Nice find on the curb! Impressive! :)
