Tomorrow is the Big Day

it is tuesday night and about 9 pm and i finally have a minute to do a quick blog to reflect my last nine months of pregnancy. 

when did i find out i was pregnant? january 11

what were my feelings when i found out? well, i was excited because i always enjoy being pregnant and i knew it could happen but i was a bit nervous when i realized that andon was not even one yet and the two would be only 19 months apart. i didn't tell john for like three days.

was i sick? yes, it was a very annoying sickness because it lasted all day long and so it was hard to enjoy doing anything, and everything about this pregnancy was harder because i had two kids at home to take care of.

what was the best day of my pregnancy? the day i found out i was having a boy. i wanted a boy so bad and was so afraid that i was going to have a girl. when the nurse said, "that is a penis, it's a boy" i was so relieved and could not be happier. and i really wanted a boy because the baby and andon would be close in age a boy would be perfect for him.

how much weight did i gain? 33 pounds

what were some of my cravings? chocolate milk, ice cream, candy, wheat thins, and frozen grapes

what are my most recent cravings? pancakes with peanut butter and syrup and soda

what are my feelings about tomorrow? i am excited to have a new baby and to hear that first cry and see that full head of hair. the miracle of birth still amazes me and i cant wait to see my new son. i am a little nervous because going into surgery is always a little scary but i trust my doctor and know that everything will be okay. i will be in a new hospital and am wondering how this experience will be. but besides all the mixed feelings, john gave me a blessing so i know that i will be taken care of and that me and the baby will be fine.

just a few last pictures before i lose all my pregnant curves!!!

Funny, I have been downing chocolate milk lately. It must be a pregnancy thing. Bry just asked if you were having a boy or a girl and I said boy. He said, "Well at least someone is having them!" Oh and we love that you have chosen to be a BYU Cougar fan. Your shirt the the perfect blue! Go Cougs!!! Oh, and good luck tomorrow! Much Love!

Kim and Nathan said...

I'll be thinking of you today. Cant wait to talk to you. Good luck.

Jami said...

Kim, you're so smart to write down all of your pregnancy details. I so wish I would have done all of that. Especially since my 3 kids are so close in age, I get them all mixed up. It's all like one big, long pregnancy. HA HA.

And it's a great thing you love being pregnant because your little guy sure loves you being pregnant too! I don't think he wants to leave his mommy's warm belly since you'll be full term TOMORROW! I'm seriously in shock everytime I come to your page and he hasn't come out yet. But today's his big debut! What an exciting time for you and John! Get the Lansonoh ready, he's coming! HA HA. :0)

MEANDERINGS OF JANICE said...

Joy called me today and said that John had e-mailed that it was a girl!! She thought it was a joke but I told her we might have to give your new baby things to Jessica!! So glad that Kelton Lane is here and and you are both doing well. Very good of you to give us one last blog on this great pregnancy! So happy for all of you! Grandma W.

That was a great post! I love your cravings & the honesty about things being much harder during pregnancy when you're taking care of other little ones. That is the truth. You look adorable! Congrats & can't wait for pictures!
