Merry Christmas!

Christmas this year has been everything we'd hoped for! Things have gone wonderfully (other than one minor setback) and I'm so pleased! So the night before Christmas Eve, I got the 24 hour stomach flu... Not much fun, but luckily, the baby was easily entertaining himself while Josh relaxed and enjoyed his holiday. Daddy and Lincoln first thing this morning We actually had to wake Lincoln up at 9 AM, which was so nice! Luckily, I felt better this morning so I was able to eat popeyed/bubble/german pancakes (whatever you prefer to call it...) just before opening presents. While Josh cleaned up breakfast, Lincoln noticed baby Jesus in the manger and tipped him out of it. Then he rubbed his bald head between his two fingers. Lincoln loved opening his gifts! His first present was a toy telephone and he couldn't put it down! We got to talk to Josh's little bro who is on his mission in Jamaica! (Photo to be added soon...) I'm loving Josh...

Week 39 Pregnancy Update

1 WEEK LEFT!!! How Far Along? 39 weeks Total Weight Gain: 24 lbs. Maternity Clothes? Yup Stretch Marks? They're everywhere!!! Sleep: I've been sleeping pretty well this week. Best Moment This Week: Going to see Rise of the Guardians last night with Josh for (probably) our last date before Lincoln gets here. I even refilled our popcorn bucket so I can enjoy some of the buttery goodness today. :) Miss Anything? Being comfortable. Movement: He's not as fierce with his movements but it seems like he's moving around just as much as a few weeks ago. Food Cravings: Peanut butter! Anything Making You Queasy or Sick? Same ol', same ol'. Gender: Boy Labor Signs:  More Braxton-Hicks and they're getting a little more uncomfortable so that's a great sign! Also, as of Monday, I'm 1 centimeter dilated and 65% effaced. :) Symptoms: Lower back pain and swollen toes. Belly Button In or Out: Out! Wedding Ring On or Off? Sometimes on, sometimes off. Happy or Moody...
