I'm now almost 37 weeks pregnant.
I'm big. I'm awkward.
I can't see my feet.
I have no energy.
I can't remember the last time I had a full night's sleep.
I can't bend over.
I can't sit.
I can't stand.
I waddle.
I can't even vacuum my houseFaith's Placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846818309805589269noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2022610945759540273.post-64713674840616456682012-03-19T19:16:00.000-04:002012-03-19T21:04:39.450-04:00Baby Bump Update : 36 Weeks

I've been working on and off for a while on my 9 year old daughter's room.
She came to me one day and said she was tired of pink walls...that she was too old for pale pink walls. Of course, I didn't think so.....are we ever too old for PINK??!?!? ;(
So, slowly, I brought myself around to the fact that she IS growing up, and maybe having pale pink walls is not the "coolest" thing to Faith's Placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08846818309805589269noreply@blogger.com20tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2022610945759540273.post-23319168001908859502012-03-05T16:34:00.003-05:002012-03-05T16:43:36.283-05:00Bump Update : 34 Weeks
