You Know You are the Size of a Moving Truck When....

1. You stand next to an equally (well..almost equally) pregnant woman and unless you looked at her from the side you wouldn't know she was pregnant- but they look at you and think you are going for the Guinness Book of World Records and you just HAVE to be PAST due when really you have 2 months left. Ya. Thanks.
2.  A kid looks at you horrified in the grocery store and asks his mom with huge eyes, "What happened to her belly?!?" The mom tries to hush him and says, "She's going to have a baby." The child shrieks out, "Right NOW?!?" Yup. Really happened.
3. You wear a bright yellow shirt and accidentally stand in front of the lamp and everyone in the room thinks and eclipse has occurred.
4. You try to discreetly slide by a student sitting at their desk and whack! them in their head with your growing watermelon of a stomach.
5. Or you try to slide by a group of members from church and bump into all of them like you are playing bumper cars.
6. Your king size bed has transformed into a twin in the middle of the night.
7. You stand next to your sister-n-law who is so incredibly cute and adorable with a bump in her belly and you look like you are trying out for a Sumo Wrestle Competition....and people are taking bets that you would win.

To name only a few... sheesh!

So- again. I have had an easy pregnancy....until the 3rd trimester. Ugh! Then over night I gained 200 lbs. (not really)

But it seemed like it.Then out of the blue I started to itch. Just a minor itch...and then it became SO INTENSE I called the doctor. Ya. They think I might have something called Cholastasis??? (Not PUPPPS for my prego friends out there.)

Cholastasis:

is a condition caused by rapidly developing (acute) or long-term (chronic) interruption in the excretion of bile (a digestive fluid that helps the body process fat).

You got to appreciate that they use the word "fat" in the definition. Every 3rd semester prego woman out there would agree that that genius needs to be shot!

So it causes me to itch....and it itches...like CRAZY!

Want to know something else that is just so precious??? Only one out of every 1,000 pregnant woman get this!
Ha!
And I say I never get picked for anything. Sheesh. Ok.. I am done complaining now.


On another kind of note this means they MIGHT have to induce me early.
WHAT?!?! That is SO NOT in my plans!!!

Now, anyone who knows me at all knows what a planner I am. I have him scheduled to arrive
on or after August 26th.

I have lots going on until that point:

-July-
Every Sunday I get to be in charge of LifeKIDZ Kids Church!
My dear sweet family and friends are throwing me 2 showers: July 14th and 17th.
We are have a MAJOR Youth Week Extravaganza Planned! July 19th- Youth Prayer & Fasting, July 20th iGNiTE'S Half Time Summer Worship Night, 21st- Youth Swim Day, 22nd is iSunday followed by iGNiTE hosting a fundraiser at Freddy's.

The much anticipated and terrifying Child Birth Prep Class is July 24th and 31st.

-August-
Aug. 6th-Breast Feeding for Dummies 101 class
Aug. 9th-11th- Ladies Conference
Aug. 13-17th- Church Prayer Week
Aug. 18th- Back-2-School BBQ for the church and community...that I may not have but kind of did volunteer to head up.
Aug. 24th- Youth Quake

And...
Aug. 26th: MY DUE DATE!!!


So you see- there is just NO POSSIBLE WAY our little man can come before then.  
Ok. I will be reasonable.
I will find someone else to take our students to Youth Quake on Aug. 24th.
Our little guy can now come anytime on in the afternoon of Aug. 19th through September 8th. I don't want him coming after that because I want him to be at least a month old before we go to CA the 1st weekend of October.

So. There.

I have given him a window of 3 whole weeks that he can come.

He can choose any date of the 21 days I provided.
MORE THAN REASONABLE if you ask me.

:o)
