33-Weeks

I was just cleaning out a closet and came across all of my unused needles, meds & syringes from IVF. WOW! I almost cried...almost, but not quite! I mean, just thinking about all that we went through to be here, 33-weeks along, only 7 left. I can't believe that this time last year we were stressed and trying to cope with the possibility of never experiencing this whole pregnancy thing. I know that I complain a lot about being uncomfortable and blah, blah, blah, but we are enjoying this brief moment more than any other experience. The anticipation of what is next. The excitement of decorating and getting clothes and cute little items that I don't even know the purpose of :P My favorite so far is laying in bed or sitting on the couch with Robert and having him place his hand on my tummy, feeling baby Austin rolling around and stretching to the max. It truly is amazing! Medical technology is amazing! I have never been happier than I am right now, just knowing that there is so much more to life and we will soon be blessed with him :)

While I'm feeling so chipper, let me just say how much I love Robert. He is an amazing man and I am so blessed to have such an incredible best friend that I can absolutely depend on for everything. And did I mention that he pretty much adores me, well he pretty much adores me :D Lucky, I think so!

Enough of that mushy, gushy stuff... let's chat about something more exciting, more...shallow!

....On a lighter note, or heavier, depending on what angle you are looking at...I'm pretty much HUGE now! That's right, huge! Apparently I have great elasticity in the gut thus far b/c no stretch marks...YET! Only time will reveal my stomach's fate. When I look down I don't see huge, but when I get a glimpse in the mirror I can't help but be amazed at the size of the beast. Wait, I'm gonna go measure this thing.....***measuring***.....HOLY GUACAMOLE!!!! 38-inches!!!! Yup, I wouldn't lie. That is the first time I measured since I first found out that I had a parasite growing inside me and then I measured....***looking for journal...that I didn't ever update*** RRRGGGG!!!! I only put my weight, which was quite a bit less than I'm currently tipping the scales at. Here, let's compare pictures, shall we?!?!?

Remind me, why did I cut my hair again???
Now that I compare the two, I haven't changed a bit!

Soooo, I thought I posted my to-do list like a month ago, but I did not :( I typed it all up, but I never posted it. Anyways, I am going to post that draft soon. AND to my surprise I have actually checked off a few things, AWESOME!
