3 Weeks To Go!

With all of this Arkansas heat, we tend to drink a lot of water these days. I try to keep hydrated by drinking a glass of water per hour if I can remember. Thus far the babe and I have been healthy and strong...and gaining lots of wondrous weight. It will be so much fun trying to loose it all after this little darling comes into the world.

{Week 33}
I had been trail running in my favorite Vibram 5 Finger shoes well into my 7th month, but then eased off and have only been hiking and walking during my 8th and 9th month.

I'm simply aching to run again—once I have this little bundle of joy, I believe I will treat myself to Merrell's new Minimalist running shoes or New Balance's Minimus.

After our lovely hike at Devil's Den State Park, we thought we'd hit up the local theater. Though I don't particularly care to go to the movies—I prefer my clean sofa to snuggle up on and being able to pause the flick if I so desire—we decided to catch one more film before the little one arrives. Here we are shoving burritos in Kyle's pockets. So sneaky, but we were hungry!

{Week 36}
I still haven't bought any maternity clothes! Only 3 weeks to go—let's see how far I can get before I start wearing sheets with cutouts for neckholes and armholes...of course I'll be sure to belt it nicely.

These days, little Nel especially likes to tuck her feet up and press firmly on my ribs, which is a constant treat. Nothing like a little daily pain. But she's just so adorable, I couldn't possibly be upset about it.

At the rate that I post, the next one will most likely include images and updates on our newest addition! Woohoo!
