I'm officially 30 weeks!!!! This is the point in the pregnancy where you start to feel not so cute. My belly looks huge in this picture. I don't feel as big as I am. I still bend over and pick Nolan up. I can still pick up all of Nolan's toys. I can still vacuum till my hearts content. I can still, sort of, get in and out of my couch with out much effort. I can still hop in to bed without a running start. (our bed is really high) Things are still in my favor right now.
However, even though I say I can still do all of those things, that doesn't mean that it is easy. I pretty much complain to Jake whenever he is around. I'm just so much more tired this pregnancy. I don't know if it's because I am running around after Nolan and Harry most of my days. But seriously, motherhood has aged me. I'm not in the shape I use to be.
I seriously can't wait till I can go back to body pump and work out at the gym without any worry of over exerting myself or the baby. I really miss that. I feel so sluggish right now. I have to tell myself everyday that the change in my body is totally worth it to get a wonderful little boy out of it. I'm probably one of the most selfish people for saying that but I hate the way my body changes when I am pregnant. I really don't embrace the pregnancy like I should. I just worry how big I am getting and how much work I will have to do to get back down to what I was previously.
Okay, enough negative. I am so excited for this new little boy to come in to our lives! I think about it everyday. Who will he look like? Is he going to be mellow or crazy like Nolan? Will he sleep well? I'm just so excited to see him!!!! I love being a mom to Nolan and know that I will love being a mom to this next little turkey. I especially love the fact that Nolan is going to have a buddy. Only 10 more weeks until we get to see him!!!!!! Wahoo!
We did it! The year of walking!

Ok Jill, you are so stinkin' tiny it's really not fair! you just have a little belly. My babies seem to spread all over, hips, thighs, etc. but yours is just a little belly. It's so cute. Just try to remember that if your belly is growing, then the baby is too and that's what he's supposed to do! You are such a cute little mom. I hear ya on the gym thing. Ava is nearly 5 months old and I've only managed to hit the gym four times. I only last about 15 minutes before the child care calls me in because of one of my three kids (usually Ava who only likes her mom). workouts are rough right now!!!!
