3rd Trimester!!! YAY!

About Taylor:
I went to the scan lab and they said that Taylor weighs 2pounds and 11 ounces =) she's only 5 ounces from be a 3 pounder =) I have my next ultrasound with my doctor on the 29th so I could almost bet before the months up she'll be over 3 pounds. I'm so proud of her she's doing so good. Anyway they said that I am lining up perfect with how far a long I am. She has really started to pack a punch these days. When I went to the scan lab last night she was kicking so hard that she would kick the person scanning right off the spot they were trying to scan …it was pretty funny. I don't think she likes being bother too much because she was moving and kicking up a storm the whole time, I think we wore her out because about 10 mins after we left she must have feel asleep because I didn't feel any movement for at least a couple hours after the appointment. I guess she can feel them pushing in my tummy while scanning and she either doesn't like it or she loves it and thinks it's play time…who knows I just know she kicks harder and moves more.
About me:
Nothing too new and exciting other then the fact that I am getting so dang fat, it's slightly depressing but I keep reminding myself it all for a good cause and I try not to compare myself to other pregnant ppl who aren't looking quit as plump =). I am just hoping that breast feeding, caring for new born, not getting nauseous the sec I get a little hungry will all some how work in my favor after the baby is born…in the mean time I remind myself that I've lost weight before and I can do it again. Now that the weather has cooled down a little I hope to find the energy to at least walk a few times a week (a little late in the game I know) which I'm sure isn't going to work any miracles but it has to be better then nothing. Well I guess that's enough about me getting fat for now=)!
What we've been up to:
Danny and I have been hard at work, working a number of different projects which are all finally starting to show and come together. We have now successfully completely remodeled the bathrooms, we have repainted nearly the whole house, put up new base boards, started working on the nursery, and almost finished the guest bedroom. We still have a ton to get done before little Taylor is here but I am determined before she arrives this house will be our home and each room will have a purpose and not one room in the house will go untouched =)….I guess some might call this the nesting phase but I think I took nesting to a whole new level. It has been a lot of work and even a lot of stress but now it's being come more apparent as things are starting to come together that it was more then worth it!
Thoughts lately:
I have been having a lot of dreams lately. I think the fact that Taylor's arrival is getting closer and closer becomes more of a reality everyday. I just can't even begin to imagine what it will be like to have a child, a daughter, and what it will be like being a mother, becoming a family? All these thoughts are constantly floating around in my head. One night I was thinking what it would be like the first time I saw her and I can't even begin to rap my mind around it. I love hearing Danny talk about his views of being a father and how he plans to take care of me and Taylor while I'm worn out after delivery. He begin acting out the situation, "come on Tata let's let mommy gets some sleep =)"…he had me cracking up. We both realize things are never how you plan them to be and things are often not the way you expected them to be but it's still fun guessing and talking about it. I have no real expectations, I plan to just take everything one day at a time. I do know that life as we now know it will never be the same…and I believe that this change holds more positives then negatives. So all that to say, we're not exactly sure what we're in store for but I know it's an adventure that we are both thrilled to experience together as a couple, and thankful that God has granted us this amazing gift!
