Psst. I'm alive.

and still pregnant.  I know, I know.  I have 35 days to go until the scheduled c-section.  But I'm a little disenchanted at this point.  I waddle.  I snore.  I pee my pants when I sneeze or laugh.

I shaved my legs last night while showering and only got a tiny nick.  I consider that success.

Every night, I give thanks to my Heavenly Father that I am NOT carrying twins this time.  I can still sleep laying on my left side.  AND in my own bed. 

I feel very fortunate that for the most part, my heartburn has subsided.  I probably only experience it once or twice a week. 

Tomorrow is Gabbers 7th birthday.    I have cunningly convinced her that what she REALLY wants instead of a birthday cake is Cake Box Cookies.  hehehe.  too easy.  I'm even going to frost them.  I might even post pictures.  Wouldn't that be something?  Two posts after a three and a half week sabbatical?  Only for you.  ;)

I pee when I sneeze too...and I am not nearly as pregnant as you. And I about severed a major artery the other day when I was shaving my legs, so I am totally jealous of your skillz.

And Happy Birthday Gabbers!

yes! I've been wondering where you've been!
Thirty five days is nuthin'. Your sweet cheeks will be here before you know it!
Take it easy and get as much rest as a mommy with a large family can!
I've always said there's a reason pregnancy is as long as it is--by then end we don't care how the baby is born, we're ready!
