38 WEEKS

I'm 38 weeks and 2 days! Almost There!! So I obviously didn't have Alexis's last week like we were really hoping! I tried really hard to get her here and she just wasn't ready. I went walking all the time and go on bumpy car rides. I could always get some really good contractions going on that would hurt and last 50 sec. but they would go away as soon as I would stop and sit down. So they weren't real.
Jaron left to England on Saturday morning. His work added a day to his schedule and he will be home on Monday night now. So I have been taking it very easy sense he left. I am a parnoid freak and didn't move the first day. I stayed at my moms the first half of the week. My sister in law has came over and vacuumed for me. gave my dogs a bath and helped do little things around the house. We're all so nervous for her to come when Jaron is gone. So it's great to have such good family that is willing to help take care of me and let me be lazy this week!!

I went to the Dr. today and I hadn't changed from the last two check ups so it must not be working by not moving this week. lol We decided to strip my membranes to try and get her here next week. So hopefully she doesn't come in a few days but hopefully it works well enough she comes Wednesday. I have always said I want her on March 10th sense I got pregnant. So she better come that day! lol Both me and Jaron's birthdays are on the 10th so she needs to be too! We're really trying!! She will only be a few days early too so I she should be big and strong enough to come!

I don't realize how huge I am sometimes. I feel huge and it is hard to move but when I see my pictures of my belly I want to die! I always told everyone how huge I would be and people didn't believe me. Well look at the picture it speaks for it's self. I only have gotten a few little stretch marks on my belly (that I can see). I don't think they'll be bad afterwards. I hope! I have exercised a little, like once a week. And I eat crappy. So yes that is why I have gotten big everywhere else, but I'm determind to get it off!! I don't know how long it will take because I hear it's kind of hard. But I'm giving myself 6 months before I get discouraged! I am really hoping my hips go back in afterwards too. Time will tell.

I'm super excited for Alexis to come!! Everything is done. So now all I'm doing is writing this super long blog and I keep making hair bows for her. So now she'll have 500 more! lol I'll keep you all updated because I know we're all to excited for her to come and to stop hearing me complain about being pregnant! lol
