Today I'm 35 weeks pregnant--wow! Only 5 weeks (give or take) to go until we finally get to meet our little guy! Just in the last week I've been getting pretty uncomfortable. The hardest part for me is finding a comfortable position to sleep in. At the moment there are six pillows on my side of the bed that I arrange myself on in various attempts to take pressure off of my hips and my big ol' belly. I feel a little like the princess and the pea, but it does help somewhat in allowing me to get some sleep! The other recent development is that my ankles and feet have started swelling. Not only does that make it uncomfortable for me to wear socks and shoes (rather important on a snowy December day) but it hurts the vanity that I never knew I had about my formerly attractive ankles! Ah well, I guess that's a small price to pay for the privilege of growing a human!
This week we took the last of our birthing/childcare classes, so theoretically we are certified and ready to go for all of the labor and delivery and parenting adventures! Haha. I guess we'll see. :) In the last two weeks, two of the couples from our natural birthing class had their babies. Both are healthy little boys--Pacen and Thomas. Todd and I are next, as far as due dates go, and then there are three other couples due in the last few weeks of January. Exciting times!

You are so cute Jess! I had Teah at 38 weeks - only 3 weeks away from you right now! Of course, it's best to assume that you'll have the baby a week after your due date so as not to drive yourself crazy :)
You look fabulous!!! Can't wait to see your little guy!
