30 down..10 to go!

finally.. i reached 30 weeks! I know that still means I have 10 left, but these days 10 weeks will fly by SO fast. We haven't gotten the kids rooms done yet either...but atleast we know exactly what we are doing. We just can't ahold of the guy that is going to create these beautiful rooms! I must be patient, its a Holiday week!

Anyways.. this post is kind of random but while I was driving today I thought about how this pregnancy has been more of a joy than last. Not that I think this child is more special in anyway, its just i've been able to really enjoy my time with BryLee before it won't ever just be her again. I love every minute I get to spend with her, she is constantly making us smile. And in seeing the joy that BryLee brings to our home, it makes me realize how much of a blessing and miracle each child is. I can't wait to meet my lil guy. And every kick he makes, makes me more excited to meet him! It seems like 2nd pregnancy you don't really care about the pains and uncomforts as much as you do the 1st time. Does anyone else know what i'm saying? maybe i'm crazy?

here are a list of perks while being pregnant:
* you get the door held open for you where ever you go
* if you are at the store no one will let you left heavy things to put in your cart
* people let you go first
* one lady hurried with her order in line so that the "pregnant lady could eat". haha
* people say your glowing, even if you are having a day where you think you look like poop
* husbands are forced to do extra things to help out cause they feel bad for what your body is going through..thanks honey :)
* you can eat whatever and at whatever time you want...bigmacs at midnight are acceptable..mmmmmmmm (well maybe once in awhile)
* no one can give you crap for taking naps..my personal favorite :)
* excuse to wear pj's all the time
* gaining 40 lbs..you can say its the baby!
* people smile at you when you walk by...love this one too
* an "ugly" strecthed out stomach is actually considered beautiful

ok now i could give you some not so good things about pregnancy..but i'll keep this a happy post! feel free to tell me somethings you think are perks about pregnancy!

I can't wait to get pregnant the second time! I think I know what you mean about being so excited. The first time, I was just so clueless and scared I did not know how amazing having a baby was so now, I know that I have so much to look forward to. Congrats on 30 weeks!
