And here is a belly pic from last week, 31wks with Brody:
The countdown continues... I've got 6 more weeks of work left and 8 weeks (give or take) till Brody comes! I was explaining to Kyra last night that I don't think I'm expressing myself very well. I often tell people that I am ready to be done with this pregnancy and ready for the baby. As much as I am excited to meet this little guy, I'm not necessarily 'done' with being pregnant... yet! I think that I am just eager for March to be here more so than to be done being pregnant for two reasons. 1, I CAN'T WAIT to be done working and 2, having the baby here (full term) will mean that Spring is upon us and I am looking forward to safer roads, grass and being outside. But as far as the pregnancy goes, things are good. Brody is REALLY moving on me, giving me big crazy tumbles that I love and I am getting really excited as the big day approaches with anticipation of what labor will be like with this guy, how much he will weigh, what will he look like, how much will he resemble Jacob and what will Jacob think of the little guy. So as much as I'm ready to be done working and for nicer weather, I'm trying to enjoy being pregnant as much as I can and enjoy the alone time I have with Jacob, who has been more and more loving lately! Such a nice treat! Although, he still loves to abuse my belly with headbutts, slapping, kicking and climbing. Brody is sure to be born tough.
In other pregnancy related news, I experienced a maternity wardrobe-malfunction. Maternity shirts often have strings that hang in the front or back to enhance the empire waist or something. Well, when using the bathroom at work this week I stood up and felt a drip on my legs. I was like "what the..." when I suddenly, regretfully, realized that my bow had come undone and dipped into the lovely toilet bowl that I had just urinated in. Yuck!
**Note to self: double-check status of all hanging clothing BEFORE using toilet**

I just LOVE your belly pics! Rub that tum for me ;-) You've got to be getting so excited to be meeting Brody!!! Does Aaron know how to put pics on here? Because I'm gonna die waiting to hear from you! Inquiring minds are gonna want to know! So, train him up in picture uploading, etc. and IF you get a chance, I'd like to be on your "Hey everyone, we're going to have a baby" list, if you don't mind :-) Enjoy your next few weeks employed!!! Woohoo!!!
Just wanted to say I think you do a great job explaining yourself, you "blog" well and always with great detail. I always look forward to updates. I've been told nothing probably will be like the first pregnancy and in most ways I think thats true. You however are always so enthusiastic and make good points about being excited for other thing (ie the way jacob will react and if he'll look like jacob) that I look forward to my second time. We can't wait to meet him!
