Week Forty.

I am in my fortieth week of pregnancy now. I have resolved that this pregnancy will NEVER end. It's ok though. Now that I've figured out that I'm going to be this way forever, it has taken a lot of stress away.



These last couple of weeks have brought on a lot of new stretch marks. I'm not so sure that I'm liking them as much as I used to. They look angry and very red, and they sort of bother me. Luckily, Armondo says he likes them. He says they feel neat, and he likes the look of them. Hopefully he's not lying, but I guess, even if he is, he's still sweet for saying it.

I've figured that part of the reason why the little one hasn't come out is 'cause she knows she's in trouble for teasing me almost a month ago with a night of contractions. I think she knows that as soon as she comes out, she's headed to the naughty corner!

But today would be a good day for her to appear. It's Elvis' Birthday! And, for the first time in weeks, I'm leaving the house tonight to do something FUN! I'm going to a movie! I get to go out and hang out in a dark room where no one will notice my football feet!

tonight would be good. Zachs birthday is today. My MIL was delighted because it is Elvis's birthday - or was! Anyway, What day did I pick for the pool? Hopefully you won't have to wait much longer for peaches. Was cherry over due?

Can you even still wear Armondo's shoes or are you going to go to the movie in just his socks?! (What movie are you seeing anyway?)

I feel for you.... the end is so rough!

Today would be a good day. Maybe she will be so nice and mature, having waited so long to be born, that she will sleep through the night from the beginning. (And perhaps change her own diapers and speak in complete English sentences. Okay, maybe not.)

When my cousin was overdue with my Godchild, we took her to the movies. The next morning......voila'! Labor! She still thinks it was from all the laughing at the movies. We took her to see The Birdcage.
