36 weeks!

I am so glad I made it this far but I am soooo ready to see Mr. Carson. Let me just run through some numbers real quick. At 98 lbs when I first got pregnant with brady to starting this one at 112 lbs...I am now almost up to 140 lbs. That is a lot of weight for my tiny body to carry around and it is getting quite uncomfortable. I'm out of breath walking up the stairs and it is making it hard to chase Brady around, which has to be done. :-) Carson is stretched across my stomach about as far as he can go and he is starting to do flips. Not sure why that is starting so late in pregnancy but it hurts. However, the one thing pulling me through is knowing that God has a plan and he will get me through this. I sure hope he plans on me going to L&D in the next two weeks to see our little miracle!

I keep telling myself I can go one more week. If I can make it through another week (I made it through last week!) then I can go one more. I guess that is what you do this late in pregancy. Not having experienced all of this last time makes this more interesting...but not sure I would want to do it again. If I didn't have two other kids to run after I might be okay. However, yesterday I just stayed in bed all day (other than church) and passed out. I just couldn't stay awake. I suppose that my body needed it and thank you to my wonderful hubby who took care of everything while I slumbered. He has been so great this time.

My next appointment is Thursday and I'm trying to decide if I want to be checked or not. It's a little early and I wasn't going to at all...but we'll see. Until then...
