9 Month photo

This is for all of you who have been dying to see how big I am with this pregnancy. I am nine months yesterday and am starting my weekly dr. visits now. She is due on the 28th of Sept, so we are on the downhill slide. I am feeling good and doing okay, but starting to waddle when I walk. I feel about the same size as with howie and I have done well not to gain very much weight! (Well, I had some extra holiday weight that I hid under for a long time.) Not much longer and Howie will have the baby sister he has been talking about for so long. He is really excited and cute about the whole thing. Usually in the morning when I leave for work, Howie has to give me a kiss and if I leave with out the next part, he yells at me that he didn't get to kiss the baby and then proceeds to kiss my tummy. Same routine at night, after our bedtime routine and tommy is taking him to his room to sleep, has to kiss mom and then the baby in the tummy. We are very excited and awaiting our little baby girl's arrival. We will keep you posted.

p.s. yes, the scab on my elbow is from this unbalanced woman, who is quite clumsy. I went out to the car to grab a bag and rolled my ankle and biffed it quite nicely on the cement sidewalk. My only thought as I was falling was to turn to the side to protect the baby. I did and my whole right side is bruised and sore today (happened two days ago.) I don't want to show you the other battle scars, probably not appropriate. :)
