Week 30... 75% DONE!

I can't believe that this whole journey is already 75% over. We only have ten more weeks to go. It's so hard to believe that we are going to meet our little girl in just a couple of months. It's so exciting! After seeing Rachel and Brad's pictures with Ella, I just can't wait to see my little girl. I'm so happy for them! I can't wait for our turn!!!
This week has been great! We found out that we will be moving to Gosport, hopefully by March 1st. We found a complex with awesome townhouses and WAY less expensive rent. I can't believe our luck! We've got a few people that are supposed to be looking at our apartment next week. So hopefully we will have someone in our apartment and we'll be into a new place by the first. It will be a perfect amount of time to get the place ready for Aiden! Yay! I can't wait!
We also had our breastfeeding class this past week. That was very informative and funny- Dan was definitely a little out of his element. So he felt the need to be funny and try out the breastfeeding positions for himself! I definitely don't think my arms are long enough for the cradle hold. Argh! What I would give to have longer appendages! I guess I'll figure something out... I'm thinking pumping during my student teaching is going to be difficult to figure out too. I never left the room except to puke last fall. I don't know how I'm going to manage leaving for 20minutes every few hours. Any suggestions?
Aiden has been extremely active this week! She has definitely been letting me know that she is quickly running out of room. I keep waking up in the middle of the night with her kicking my bladder, as if to say "Hey mom! It's getting crowded! Can you help me out?" So of course I do (like I really have any choice). As I've said before, I don't think we are going to have ANY problems getting her to let us know when she needs something. Something else that I thought was great was that she is really responding to music. I went to the opera with my friend Natasha last night and Aiden was going wild!!! It was so funny. Especially when the music was very dramatic, she would kick a whole bunch. I'm so excited! She will at least be a music enthusiast from what I'm feeling, and, heck, she's got the genes. Maybe she'll be a musician too! I definitely wouldn't be disappointed. So for a future career she's looking to be an opera singing, ninja ballerina. I guess she'll have to go for one of those create it yourself majors. Hehehe!
Anyway... on to belly pictures!



I definitely have a pointy belly. I think it's so funny. I wonder if anyone else has ever had such a pointy pregnant belly...











From the side. Yes. I swear I'm not swaying more than the average pregnant woman. My stomach actually sticks out that far from the rest of me!









And the forward shot. I will definitely be happy to have my curves back after all of this. But I am somewhat attached to my belly's pointiness.
