Space Invader

Oh my sweet baby boy! How some days I wish daddy could enjoy the pleasure of carrying you inside his body!
I love you more than you could ever know Nolan, but on days like today I just wish you would spend a little less time in my ribs! You are always on my right side when you nuzzle into my ribs. By nuzzle I mean lovingly cram part of you (I think your leg/s) into my ribs.

Besides that I have just had an increase of everything:
-Emotional? Oh yeah! Like a crazy person. Seriously, if I where acting like this and not pregnant Derek would probably send me to the loony bin!
-Hungry? Sadly, since I am running out of room my stomach can hold less at once. My appetite has not diminished at all, but now I just get the pleasure of eating so frequently that I am seriously tempted to wear a sweater with pockets full of snacks.
-Tired? I wake up feeling well rested but give it an hour or two and suddenly I feel like I didn't sleep at all the night before!
-Slow? I have a hard time grasping how sluggish my pace is! If my back isn't hurting at all I can move at a normal walking speed, but only for short burst or I become winded! My new 'normal' walk is a leisurely waddle! Getting off the couch has become a task a prefer to have help on. If not I'm like a turtle stuck on its back, I rock back and forth while scooting forward. Heaven forbid I have to sit on the floor. I'll need at least a full minute to get up!

Plus heartburn and leg aches! But none of it is really that bad. I mean all of it is not what I expected, but you really can't expect to know what your first pregnancy will be like. All I know for sure is how excited I am to be a mommy and how I am looking forward to the first time I get to hold my lil man. I know Derek feels this way as well. Nolan, we are counting down the days until you make your arrival and change our lives! We love you and thank God for you!
