Officially my last week in the 20s. Then only 10 weeks left. Things are getting real!
Not much new pregnancy-wise. I'm getting to the "I'm done point" which isn't great considering I still have 2.5ish months left. I no longer can paint my toes or do any sort of bending over without seriously squishing this little guy. I get so tired by the end of the day or start having serious braxton hicks contractions that I try not to overdo it, but then I feel like I'm jipping Zoe and being a lazy bum. Thankfully, she's content when I read or do puzzles with her. And she could care less if I sit and watch her play outside rather then partaking in all the fun. It's my own guilt I guess. She prefers to sit on my lap though now for everything which is starting to get tricky since I'm running out of lap room as this belly keeps getting bigger.
I'm trying so hard to get her to grasp that there will be a little human here soon. I just don't think she has any clue. I'll tell her baby brother is in my belly and she looks at me and lifts up my shirt and looks at me again and just pokes my belly button and does her "I'm tickling you" squeal. I'm praying that her transition goes ok.
We made our one and only trip up north this weekend. So much fun and too short as always! Traffic wasn't bad at all thankfully. Zoe is great in the car (especially now that she can face forward), but she only lasts so long. And 5 hours is long as it is...add in traffic and that's tough.
While some our meals out weren't so great (mom and dad are still trying to figure out what places have good food and which don't - we definitely helped with the do not go back list), we made up for it with lots of trips to the playground, a little children's museum, walks, shopping, feeding the ducks, camp fires, etc. Zoe had so much fun, slept great, and misses her camper already :)
