31 Weeks and Loving It!

It's so hard to believe that I'm in my 31st week of pregnancy and in only 9 short weeks Lee and I will officially be proud parents of baby Cade! That is, if I actually go on my due date...which I'm praying hard that I don't go over! :) Other than my recent cold/flu and minor instances tinkling on myself, I've been feeling great these days! Yes, you read that last sentence correctly...don't get me coughing or laughing too hard! :)

I don't think I've said it enough, but Lee has been so wonderful throughout this entire experience that it has made every day more enjoyable! I'm so lucky to have such a loving husband and soon to be dad! He is going to be the best dad ever! I can't wait to see him hold Cade in his arms! We both say every day how we can't wait to see his little face! I know by the last ultrasound pictures that he is going to look just like Lee...and that is perfectly fine by me!

I have to say though, I'm really enjoying my pregnancy and my growing belly! I think I'm really going to miss him being in my belly too. Every move he makes is so amazing to me and I love every nudge, punch and kick. He is quite the mover these days. Lee and I often wonder if he's dancing in there... some of the moves he makes are so wild. I'll never forget the first time he moved really big for Lee...Lee jumped out of bed and screamed! It was hilarious! This was several weeks ago and it seems to us that his moves are changing every day. We are thinking that he has really grown the last few weeks...and babycenter.com confirms this! It says that in my 31st week the baby is heading into a growing spurt and measures around 16 inches long and a little over 3 pounds! WOW!

Did you all know that I weighed 10lb-12oz when I was born?? Yep, that's the truth! I was huge! My aunt Jeannie recently told me that she was in the room with my mom while delivering me and they thought I was for sure a boy when they saw my big shoulder pop out! haha! I love that story! But I'm praying Cade isn't that big...I don't know if I'll be as strong of a woman as my mom was! Lee only weighed 7lb-7oz so I'm hoping Cade is more like that size! Keep your fingers crossed for me!
