25 Days To Go

That's a number I can finally live with. 25. And it just keeps going down each day. 25 is nothing! I'm so ready to be done being pregnant. Last night I slept on the couch because the only way to sleep comfortably was sitting up. Heartburn wakes me up all night along with the constant feeling of a full bladder. I'm at that uncomfortable, please-don't-grow-anymore-and-please-stop-kicking-my-bladder stage. Love it, but not really at all. I'm excited to see Easton with his little brother. We've been talking about Tegan and discussing all the fun things that Easton gets to teach him. He calls my belly Tegan, and he tells me, "Tegan is coming later, k?" I tell him that soon a baby will be coming out of my belly and that he'll get to keep this baby as his own. He pretty much loves that. Hopefully, if I am very lucky, I will go early instead of 12 days late like I did with Easton. Time for the squat thrusts and jumping jacks and lots of physical labor to get this kid out of me. So keep your fingers crossed that I'll be having him soon. I'm ready. I promise I am.

AGGH, you poor girl! This is the worst time during the pregnancy! I went 22 days early with my last 2 kids, maybe you will be so lucky! I will pray for ya!

Oh the joys of pregnancy! I find it hard to believe that some people enjoy it!

I so happy that you are getting near the end, Rachel. I know how miserable the last few weeks always are! I can't wait to see pictures of my new Budge baby boy!

Now it is just time to sit back and enjoy the moments of silence when Easton is sleeping or entertaining himself...they will soon be gone!!

I am sad that I won't be there to see Tegan when he is new! I am sure that he will be super cute like Easton. We miss you both so much! Good luck!

The last few weeks are always the WORST!!! I am very envious though, that you are due so soon. April seems awfully far away...

We are planning on coming to Vegas in the middle of February, so maybe then we can see you too and your new baby! :)
