Almost 35 weeks

Hey all,
 
Sorry that I have not updated this in about 5 weeks!!!  Some of you have inquired how I am doing.  I am doing very well.  Not to change the subject, but do any of you recall how the hobbits feet looked in The Lord of the Rings movie?  Now you've got a picture of what my ankles and feet look like.  It is funny.  I try to put them up at least once a day to help with the swelling, but life must go on.  I am just glad it is summertime (well, it feels like it), so I can wear flipflops or go barefoot.
 
The baby is growing, that is for sure, and moving around a lot.  His/Her head is down now, lower than it should be at this point, so they said this baby might come early.  I am happy about that as long as it doesn't come to early where it is harmful for the baby.  I am really counting down the weeks now as I cannot wait to go through the labor process, hospital experience, and finally hold and nurse this baby.  And, of course, we want to know if this is a boy or girl!!
 
I have an ultrasound on Monday.  The reason is because I was measuring small at my last appointment and they want to make sure baby is the size it should be.  My midwife figured I was measuring small due to the head being lower in my pelvis than they expect it to be at this time.  I feel like everything is fine with the baby and I am praying that the baby is born on the day that the Lord desires.  I am looking forward to seeing how much he/she has grown since the last ultrasound at 20 weeks.
 
Well, that is my update.  Maybe I will get a picture of my hobbit feet up soon!
