Getting Old....

I celebrated my 29th birthday yesterday. It was a depressing age to turn for me. I think it's worse than 30. It's the very last year of 20's! Ahhh! I spent the day relaxing and then mom and dad came up and we all went to eat. Very low key. But, I got awesome birthday gifts! Mom and dad got me a camcorder, case and tripod - awesome! We need it so bad for when the baby comes! And Derrick gave me the vacuum I have been begging for. You know you are old when you are pumped about a vacuum!

Also, in the past week, my belly has gotten A LOT bigger. It's hard to change my mentality that it's ok to be getting bigger. Ya know? You go your whole life freaking when pants don't fit anymore, and now, it's supposed to be all ok. It's taking some getting used to!!! But, I am now at 26 weeks, almost 27, so the third trimester is almost here!

i know exactly what you mean. i had a hard time with counting lbs and worrying too much about it. i thought i'd be better the second time, but not so much.
but you shouldn't worry. you haven't weighed a ounce over 80 lbs ever!!!!
seriously, you'll be amazed how much you lose in the first week! that baby and water takes up most of it!!

hahaha, I wish I had never weighed over that! I wouldn't be as stressed if I hadn't gained too much weight a few months prior to getting pregnant! I've been working out regularly though (except the last week), so I feel like I am at least doing that to help the lbs drop after the baby comes!
