6 and...

One more week down. Sophia's head is not (down). Time is going by quickly but I am more concerned with the Christmas tree skirt that I now don't think I will finish before we get our tree unless we put off getting said tree until the week after Thanksgiving. But if we wait, that only gives me 2.5 weeks with my tree which makes me very sad. I am quite annoyed with Thanksgiving this year and its selfish decision to take away one of my weeks before Christmas.

Back to things related to Sophia and not my issues with only having 3.5 weeks between Turkey day and Christmas...

She is doing great! Her heartbeat is strong and she is constantly wiggling (for the most part). I am feeling pretty good most of the time. Battling being tired a lot and some heartburn but it has been manageable.

Can't wait to need this little girl! She is definitely going to be a world rocker for us.

7weeks and counting

Oh my! We are officially less than 8 weeks til due date. I cannot believe it. The countdown  is flying by now. I am a whirlwind of exhaustion and list making and trying to get ready. I am confident that I will forget something important because I am so tired and my brain is on constant jump mode in an attempt to remember everything. I am not going to stress about it though - Sophia has clothes, diapers, a place to sleep, a carseat and hopefully mommy-made food. Everything else is just to make things easier, right?

I feel huge and my heartburn is getting really bad (and more random than before). I am, however, so glad it is fall/winter and not summer. I have been burning up despite the really cold weather. I feel for the mothers of summer babies. Otherwise, I am still feeling pretty good - just more tired than I expected to be. But I do love my sleep so it pays off :)
