35 weeks

I'm 35 weeks today. I looked on the calendar and it's hard to believe that we are a little over 30 days away from meeting this little peanut. Judging from activity this morning, Peanut is running out of room in there fast. It felt like Peanut was trying to get out, with how active it was moving. Jessie couldn't get over all the movement. I have to admit this morning that there were more then a few of them that really hurt. Hopefully Peanut will be a little kinder to momma in the next couple of weeks.

Dawn loves feeling Peanut move, she keeps trying to figure out what each bump is. lol. She's been a stinker though too. She loves to tell me, that my belly looks like I swallowed a basketball, &/or my butt is big like when I was pregnant with Cyril. Spencer is freaked out by Peanut moving. He says my stomach looks like an alien in there. lol. Dawn & Cyril came to cuddled with me and "his" baby this morning. Cyril has become fascinated with my chest lately. He knows what they are for. He tells me all the time, that's "baby milk" This morning though was strange. He kept peaking at them, saying "Boobs for baby. Not for me. I'm a big boy." or "Nooo boobs for me." The 2nd comment reminded me of the line for the Seinfeld show "No soup for you." I hope this fascination will take a back seat after the baby is born. I would be embarrassed if he tries to do this "game" in front of someone other then family. He also kept kissing and hugging my belly, it was really cute. He told me that he was giving them to his baby butter. I asked him what will he do if it's a sister not a brother? He told me he hated girls. :( I know that's not entirely true since he loves his big sister. But I have to admit secretly there's a part of me that wonders how he will react if this baby is a girl not a boy.

Last week and earlier this week I was excited that my belly was finally getting at a point where my pants will stay up without the help of a belly band. Today though is proving that I'm still not quite there yet. I keep having to hike them up. lol. I don't remember having with the boys...it's kind of a nice feeling at this stage in pregnancy. But I'm starting not to be very comfortable in jeans, so I've been thinking of getting some maternity sweatpants/lounge pants and see if I'm more comfortable that way.

Jessie and I have NOT figured out names yet for either gender. We have the middle names figured out...or should I say I have them figured it out. If it's a girl then she will have his mother's middle name, just like Dawn has my mom's middle name. If it's a boy the middle name will either be after his father or my uncle. It would be really cool if the baby is a boy to have both of these men's names since they are 2 out of 3 most important men in Jessie's & my life. Guess we better get to figuring out a name. Cyril didn't have his name till I was about this far along in my pregnancy with him, and he was born 2 weeks later. I made a comment that I packed the baby book of names in my hospital bag just in case. Jessie looked slightly annoyed. lol.

God Bless
