13 weeks left....

Ahhhh!  That is scary to write!   LOL.  This is week 26 (I will be delivering at least a week early... for all you math majors out there...).  This week has been very interesting as for as my development and baby girls.  First of all, I am pretty sure that baby girl has a temper.  A fierce one.  ( from her father, of course!) Baby girl does not like to feel constricted or have anything else invade her space.  For example, there shall be no tight fitting pants or skirts.  I am not to rest my arms on my belly.  Nor am I allowed to rest books or electronic devices on my belly.  To do so will result in ferocious kicking until said violation is removed.  It is hilarious.  She is still a night owl - sleeps during the day, crazy child at night.  Hopefully that will all change when she gets here.

Last week I had an appointment, as previously mentioned. I thought that I would wait three week to add a new medication, but I decided against waiting and went ahead and requested it.  I started taking it on Monday, and today I have felt rough.   Nausea, achy, and just all around icky.  lol.  Hopefully, I am just adjusting to the medicine and these symptoms will not stick around.  My belly is super achy but I am sure it is just because baby girl is growing bigger and stronger.  :)

This next week will be crazy only in  that school is winding down for summer.  We won't be quite finished yet, but all of the end of year festivities are in full swing.  :)  Oh....and we are packing....lots and lots of boxes.  SO fun!  :)

Holy Week

This week is Holy Week in the life of the church.  I love Holy Week and the somber reflection that comes with this week. Baby Kimmons has had an interesting week with all of the church services. I had the privilege of rehearsing and playing with the Baptist church for Good Friday, to which the baby was highly responsive. I hope that it is a musical child. It seemed to like the music and was dancing or something in there! We also had a Maundy Thursday service to which Baby K seemed to love all the singing as well.      Obviously, this has been a very busy week and I am exhausted.  The tired feeling has definitely not gone away, in fact, it may be even more intense.  I have been super achy this week as things seem to be growing and shifting even more. We had a bit of a scare yesterday, but after being all checked out, everything seems to be fine. Thank goodness!  ( Sorry for any of you that I scared while at work!)     I am having a few cravings this week, but unfortunately, I am cravi

Trying times...

  Yes, today is 14 weeks and yes a picture is coming I promise, but hubby isn't home yet.  :(  But I need to vent.  Today has been a very emotionally trying day.  Life seems to be overwhelming me (probably along with a few hormones too!) and I am really struggling today.  Between work, grad school, and other aspects of life, I am left worn out and stressed out.  I am well aware that I am very blessed.  I have been blessed with some amazing opportunities in life and even now with this baby on the way I realize how great I have things.  However, maybe this baby is helping me to put things into perspective.  Some of the things that I once found so important don't seem to matter as much.  Deadlines have been mere suggestions lately.  Most of all, I feel like I am struggling to find my voice in the sea of those who want to tell me what to do, how to do it, or how I should be feeling right now.  I can't decide if I want to cry or sleep.  I know that many of you are going throu

Whadda ya think?

So, now that we have shared our big news, everyone's next question is..."well, are you going to find out the gender?"  My response is "ABSOLUTELY!" Ha!  My Type A- OCD personality has to find out.  Many people love the element of surprise that comes with not finding out, but I think the surprise of just meeting our beautiful baby will be enough, the rest must be planned.  :)  As far as preference, we don't really have one.  I would love to have a little girl to put big bow and flowers on their head and to cover in ruffles and frills, but a little boy would be tons of fun.  As long as the baby is happy and healthy, we are thrilled either way.  I have had several people make their suggestions as to gender based on my appearance.  One family member says it's a boy cause I am carrying all in front, a friend says it's a girl cause I am carrying down low.  My friends think it's a boy cause I haven't been puking like they were and they both had girl
