*thus begins the countdown*

ok ok i know i'm horrible at updating this blog. not that it matters because i don't think anyone reads it.... but i guess this is more for my own peace of mind knowing there's some sort of record of this time :)

i'm now 37 weeks, which means the baby is fully formed and is ready for the world! but there's still 3 weeks to go til my due date, which also means 3 weeks til christmas!! yippeeee.... of course, this year there's a good chance i'll be celebrating with grouchy nurses at the hospital. but without further ado, photos of the evolution of my bump in the last month:

29 weeks


32 weeks


34 weeks


36 weeks


as you can see by my expression in that last one, i'm not a very happy camper by this point... by now i'm just feeling super huge and moving around is not a happy event. i can't get a comfortable sleeping position, and i can't walk any faster than snail's pace. i also get these round ligament pains in my right hip that is really really NOT fun, mostly because i can't figure how to stretch it out.

so here you go. 20 days to go. have you done your christmas shopping yet?
