What's this you say? Elijah holding onto a large flesh toned balloon? Nope! That is just mama's ready-to-pop belly. Can we say "Okay, already?"
I must be much amusement to my children. "Oh look! It's that big balloon mommy has in her belly. I wonder if I can throw it up in the air. Um, no, it doesn't come off. Hmmm maybe I will just hug it."
Yes, I am ready to pop! Ready to let the air out of this balloon.
As I roll out of bed, off the couch, waddling like an overgrown duck (quack, quack!) through my day, my thoughts are on the task at hand; keeping sanity in a house of madness. 'What was I thinking' does cross my mind at those rare moments of clarity.
'Just keep swimming' I tell myself.
Almost there.
Just days to go.

YOU LOOK GREAT! Love that belly. Oh, and I hate you because you seemingly have no ass. You're like 97 weeks pregnant, with baby #4 - HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?? I'm 10 months removed from my second (and final, by the way) and I could give J-Lo a run for her money (and isn't she 97 weeks preggers with TWINS???!!!).
Anyway, you look great.
Only 13 days? WOW.
Do you have help coming for when Sam is born? I hope to God the answer is yes.
Hang in there.
Steph
P.S. Hey Michael - hope all is well and that you've recovered from your Jimmy Buffet night .... :)
(wheresthefamily)
Yes, fully recovered from Buffet...it only took me three full days although I can't recall much except the excessive vomitting on the first recovery day.
Sam is sitting a lot lower than the boys did, but as far as weight you look smaller than the first 3 times. I hope Sam can hold out another week and you look great babe. Elijah's face is making me laugh and Gabe is always a hoot.
Kalamazoo,
lol! About giving J-Lo a run for the money. I am sure it is not that bad. :)
Chris will be here on the 22nd. Yeah, Michael gets to party and go to concerts whilst I sit at home doing the bathroom olympics!
Michael,
Sam is lower which is why I must move fast when the urge hits me. :)
Elijah and Gabe are both little hams.
I am so excited for you. I am sure the boys will be a great help to you. Can't wait to see pictures :)
The boys. Hopefully they will be helpful. I know Spencer will, the other two, the jury is still out.
Will post pics. Of course! :)
If the younger boys are anything like Zak (busy!) they will love the baby in passing. Haha. Both of my boys still love their little sister and she is almost 2 (!WOW!). I had Mya when Michael had only about 3 months of deployment left and let me tell you...those 3 months flew by because I was so busy. I hope the same thing happens for you. :)
And Mike, how about them Giants? Didn't see that coming huh? haha
We report to MD in July/August and we can't wait to see you guys!

Tree,
She should be arriving anytime now...get ready to say bye bye big belly. :)
Jamie,
I have no idea what you are talking about...Giants....who are they?
Cool, you guys will get there shortly after I do.
Well said.
