Baby Updates

Rain washed out our plans for maternity pictures at the Botanical Garden in Birmingham on Sunday.
And rain hasn't been the only thing falling around our house. My emotions have kicked it up a notch - for no reason other than being pregnant. Jeff has been a trooper dealing with sudden tears!
I can't believe how well I'm sleeping at night. I still make 2 or 3 bathroom trips but have no trouble getting comfortable and falling asleep once I'm back in bed. I am, however, now in my 8th month of pregnancy and I've been told these last weeks will be the most uncomfortable ones. Something to "look forward to,"right?
Abby Kate has been extremely active over the last few days. She likes to play with daddy just as we lay down to sleep or right before we have to get up. And by "play" I mean kick him. I'll lay with my stomach to his back and he can feel her bounce around. Saturday morning he told me he is sure she stretched all four limbs at the same time because he felt it. He joked that she must have been telling him to get out of bed and fix breakfast.
We go back to the doctor Friday for our 32 week check-up. Jeff hasn't been able to make it to the last couple of appointments but he's hoping to join me for this one.
