Pregnancy Update

I am now 29 weeks pregnant and i have to say i've been pretty spoiled. i didn't have any nausea or morning sickness and have only thrown up once. other than having some pretty terrible headaches the first trimester and really bad fatigue it's been a pretty easy pregnancy. the second trimester was great because i had a lot more energy and no more headaches! i am now in my third trimester and am starting to feel a little worse. not terrible, i still don't have the headaches but i am tired a lot of the time, my back is killing me and he is starting to kick a little harder! i definitely feel pain under my ribs and i feel more out of breath sometimes. i've been very lucky though!
it has kind of hit me that i have about 2 1/2 months left now and i feel like i have so much to do! (plus my mom informed me that she was always at least a week or two early with all of us so if it's true that you kind of do what your mom does then i have less time than i thought!, does anyone know if that actually is true?) i have a couple of showers planned next month so Gary and i registered and Target and Babies r us over the weekend. i t was a lot of fun but it just made me realize the things that i still don't have. which is pretty much everything. all we really have right now is the dresser(which was a cabinet we got from our wedding which i'm going to paint). i found two cribs i really like, one at target (which is back ordered) and one at babies r us which is of course more expensive. so we'll see what happens. we are getting really excited though, and scared, and nervous and a lot of other emotions. i am in nesting mode and i feel like i need to clean and organize everything while i can. only 11 more weeks, crazy!

You better get that nursery ready because I am coming to see you in a couple weeks. Hopefully you are going to be there in a couple of weeks.
