Life is always a rich and steady time when you are waiting for something to happen or to hatch. ~E.B. White, Charlotte's Web

This is more of an update post for me to have since I haven't been doing as well with that in this pregnancy like I did the other two. As of Friday I am 32 weeks, getting so close to the end! Which is good cuz it seems like a long time ago that I found out I was pregnant! Things have been going pretty well lately-definitely showing now and definitely feeling it! Starting to feel some of the 3rd trimester discomforts but not unbearable/hard to deal with yet. Every once and awhile things will taste off like before but it hasn't been lasting as long as it did before thank goodness! It sucks having everything taste off and blah. The biggest issue I'm having that wasn't a problem with the other two is my poor legs/veins! For quite awhile now I've had some discomfort with that and have even started wearing a compression sock which has helped but it's still a big nuisance! I'm just praying it goes away after she's born!

She is definitely moving around a lot more now that she's getting bigger but I still think she's a tad calmer than the other two were. I'm sure once I hit the end and there's no room left I won't be able to tell a difference ;) I had a dr appt last Thursday- everything is going good still! They did an ultrasound to check her growth and all that and the technician measured her weight to be 4.5 lbs or so which is more of a 34 week weight so she's a bit ahead of herself! I'm hoping to have her a little early so if she's a little ahead weight wise then that's all good! The ultrasound tech also said she could tell there was some hair on her head so we'll see if she takes more after her brother at birth than her sister! Andrew definitely had a lot more hair than Evelyn! I'm really excited to see who she's more like since Evelyn and Andrew really are pretty different, especially as newborns!

So any who! There's not much else to say. I'm getting really excited to meet her but also nervous about having her! The other two were fairly similar birth so the odds of this one being the same aren't too likely. But it'll be fine and it'll soon be over and I'll have a new baby to photograph and show off to you all ;) haha! Just start praying for me that she comes at least a bit early ;) I'm already about ready to be done so I know 8 weeks later I'm gonna be MORE than ready! :)

Sweet Elizabeth at 32 weeks!
