34 Weeks!

Honestly, now the time is flying by! I still have things I want to get done, but I am feeling very ready for this baby boy to come! I am getting BIG, and my back might never be the same as it was before! Also, Baby has decided that my rib-cage makes a good home for little bony body parts. I am still loving this pregnancy though, and am very thankful to be able to add another little one to our crew. Ivy and Porter are very excited, and I'm sure the days and weeks feel really long for them. We're going to just try to enjoy these last few weeks, and accomplish as much as we can. I'm going to have to try hard to not dwell on how excited I am to hold a tiny new baby. I'm sure Ivy won't want to share with me anyway once he's finally here!

Kelsay Farms

We always try to find a farm to visit in the fall, and this year we went to one just down the street from our house called Kelsay Farms. I give it a 2 Star rating, but the kids still had fun! There was a haystack mountain for them to climb on, tractors and cows to see, a corn maze and a hay ride. The kids each got to buy a pumpkin too, which was probably their highlight. We might have stayed longer, but it was actually really hot that day (who called for the 80 degree weather in October?), and this very pregnant Mommy was done after just a couple of hours. All in all, it was really nice to spend an afternoon together as a family! Also, Ivy has decided that she never wants to have cows as a pets because they're stinky. That's true.

31 Weeks

We're getting closer! I have narrowed down my list of things to do before the baby comes, and I think it might actually be attainable. Well, maybe. I am still feeling good, and loving all of the movement in my belly! This is one active little boy. The movements are much stronger now, and there are times that I think I can tell which body part is poking out! So fun.
