Here are some pics of me a few days ago at almost 32 weeks! I have been so busy getting things done at home and at work! It is hard to plan for a sub for 13 weeks!! The last one is of Noah at the fair this summer. He is going through a terrible twos stage right now that I hope goes away soon! Sorry the pics are sideways but I edited them in photobucket the right way but they are posting this way here. Guess you'll just have to crane your necks!!! If notice in the kitchen my baseboards are gone because we get our new flooring on Wed.! It was nice not having to be careful when painting since the old floor will be gone!!!

You look so good - beautiful and glowy! And that Noah's such a cutie, too. He's gonna be a heartbreaker.

Thanks Michele! I still follow Heather's diet pretty strictly although I have found I could cheat with handfuls of cheetos or dortios and milk chocolate has not bothered me so candy has been a big part of this pregnancy. I think I have gained 20lbs so far. I will know for sure on Monday when I go again. I gained exactly 30 with Noah so I am hoping to be back into my real clothes by Christmas!!

Ooh... I hate you. I wish I could say I've gained such little weight. You look great too. It's not fair.

The sad thing is, I'm not even eating poorly... people keep telling me it must be water weight. I guess we'll see.

Thanks! I am not going to complain too much. I have been lucky with both of my pregnancies. I really thought I would gain alot more weight. I am sure that you look adorable as well! In fact your last pics you did!! Just remember all pregnant ladies look cute! (and God help those who say we don't!! LOL!)

You look adorable. I actually look similar this time. I get irritated when everyone says you look really, really good this time. You can tell your having a boy. What did I look horrible last time? I guess it's because I do have that all out front look and the girls I went wide. We really are getting down there, aren't we. I missed my appointment yesterday due to the horrible weather in the area (north of Buffalo) so I should only have 5 appointments left but now I guess I have 6 since I have to call Monday and make another appointment.

Jen- My sister says boys make you eat more. I'm starving all the time and I'm eating way too much a lot but oh it's so good. Usually I don't like to eat when I'm pregnant. I get so bored with food.

Ginger- How is that precious daughter of yours? How are you feeling.

You look beautiful, and Noah is an absolute doll! I didn't realize you were this far along. It won't be long until that baby gets here.

And as for the Terrible Two's, enjoy Noah now. I know you find this hard to believe, but I actually look back at age 2 as the most precious stage my boys went through. Although they can be exhausting at that age, they're also so cute at 2 too! Pretty soon he will be all grown up and you will wish he was 2 again.

You look fantastic! It doesn't look like you've gained any weight except for the baby. I can't believe how close you are. And Noah is so adorable. It's a shame that kids are usually such holy terrors at that age because they're so cute then.

I totally hear you on the "you look cute" or "adorable" comments being annoying. I think it's because up until pregnancy people didn't really feel the need to comment on my physical being so much and it feels weird and intrusive.

I hope it's that Ollie's making me hungry all the time. I also hope it's water weight. I can't believe what the scale says. I spend so much of my life trying to be skinny that this is really traumatizing me. It also is just tiring and painful to be carrying around all this weight. I can't wait to go running again!!

How are you all doing with all that snow? We were supposed to get a cold front that would drop us down below 85, but that didn't happen. Kind of the opposite problem of you all, I guess!

I really am getting anxious. Tomorrow I will schedule my induction with the doctor for the week after Thanksgiving. I feel like we still have a million things to do before she comes.

BL- I know that I will miss those 2's but they are soooo trying right now. It doesn't help that he is so stinking cute and tries to get away with things!!

Chinagirl- I am sure that you will have no problem losing weight after the baby is born. Remember everyone is different and some people carry more fluid weight than others too.

Heidi- I bet you are getting anxious too! Don't you just love people's remarks about what you look like when you are pregnant! I really hate it when people feel like they can just touch my belly. Just because it sticks out does not mean it's a free for all!!!


Ginger- You'll have to post some new pics of that baby girl. I bet she has changed so much already. If you need any remiders of being pregnant I am sure I can fill you in. Mmmm let's see can't see my legs, stomach muscles are stretching and hurting, lower back pain, constant karate kicking... remember now!! LOL! Just kidding. I remember thinking the same thing after having Noah. Enjoy Mia every moment. Time goes soo fast!!

but we're having a hard time getting Mia to sleep...she never wants to go down before 11 or 12 at night, and twice we've had to put her bouncy chair IN the crib and let her fall asleep in there. At her first wake up feeding, I put her just in the crib and she's fine. But getting her to fall asleep at night is hard. She's also been more fussy the last few days, so we're tired and frustrated. But otherwise, she's doing just fine, gaining weight and very cute!

Ginger- Noah slept in his bouncy seat for at least the first 3 months inside of his crib. He hated laying flat and never wanted to go down to sleep in the beginning. I just bought an incline from onestepahead.com that is suppose to raise them up in their cribs. I am hoping that works for Ava. Do you have a bassinett? Sometimes babies feel "lost" in a big crib and like something smaller to sleep in when they are little. I have a bassinett that vibrates which is a good lulling technique for them. Just remeber they will go through sleepless stages for the first 3 months for sure. After that if you stick to a routine they usually develop one too. I was so strict with Noah;s and it paid off. Once he was 3 months old he pretty much slept through the night unless he was teething or sick. Hang in there! It does get better!!

I was just on my way out the door to buy one of those incline things...I wonder if they have them at Babies R Us? It's nice to know that she will grow out of this eventually, and she's not unusual. Being a first time mom, I'm never sure if I'm doing the right thing, you know?

Ginger I think you might have already left but the first one I got was from Babies R US. It was ok but the one I just bought is raised higher and has that foam that conforms to their heads. If you don't find one there order from One step ahead. It should only take a few days to ship to you. And remember everything is trial and error with the first one. They surive and you learn a ton!!

My nephew slept A LOT in his swing the first few months--even at night. She used to have nightmares about running out of batteries!

Do you have The Happiest Baby on the Block? She (and I) learned a lot from that book!
