The latest on being preggers

Apparently, I'm considered a slacker because I haven't blogged since the beginning of October. Sorry, Sam! So I thought I'd catch everyone up on what's been going on with my preggo self. I at least have pictures to go along with my few happenings.

First, I've been going to the Razorback games almost every weekend. Besides all of the walking around from the tailgates to the stadium, they've been very tiring since we haven't been playing so well. However, we went to Ole Miss last week and that was very fun since we won! It was hot, but it was
really fun to see the Rebels fans tailgate..they know how to do it right (chandeliers, flower arrangements, etc.)! Also, I got to see my brother, Brant, and his wife, Kari. So that was an added bonus.
Me and Brant at Ole Miss (1st picture above). My necklace left a really rockin' tan line. I wish that I wore my Razorback necklace to sport an even cooler tan line. Brant and Kari (2nd picture above) wondering why we haven't won any previous games. Oh, and we're excited because I think Little Bit's Aunt and Uncle are moving back to LR in a few weeks. YEAH!!!

Then, last Tuesday, my dad had a partial knee replacement. He's fine...he's just hobblin' around. So I'm not the only one that waddling, or hobbling. :) I had to share this picture of my cute dad because I wanted everyone to see how "pimpin'" he looked right when he was taken to his room.

The same day as my dad's surgery, Drew and I took a breastfeeding class at the hospital. Let's just say that, although helpful, neither of us really want to see boobs ever again. The video was a little too much for the both of us. On a more serious note, though, I pray that breastfeeding does work for me and Little Bit.

Also, since I knew that Drew had so much fun on Tuesday :D, I drug him to childbirth class the following night. This class, unfortunately, is four Wednesdays in a row. The first class wasn't too bad since they took us on a tour of the Labor and Delivery section of the hospital. It did make it a little more real for the both of us, but I think it was very helpful for me. Next week is "the" video and it's on Halloween. Drew doesn't think anyone should ever have to be that scared on Halloween night, so I'm not sure if we'll be attending that class or not. I'll keep you posted.

Tonight was one of the most exciting things we've done so far this month, though. Our friends, Leslie and Robbie, got engaged today so we went to their new house and celebrated.

The celebratory toast. We're so excited for you two and we're glad that we've gotten to know Robbie this past year.


As for Little Bit...I am now 32 weeks pregnant, which translates to 8 months along, which translates to 8 weeks left, which translates to starting to feel a little bit of panic on top of the anxious feeling. So to help control my panic, I woke up this morning and started to wash all of Little Bit's things (clothes, towels, blankets, etc.) Little Bit is CONSTANTLY moving and I think he/she has got rhythm (obviously not a trait from his/her daddy). About 2 weeks ago, I felt Little Bit flip inside me. Although it was an amazing feeling and an awesome thing to see, I'm praying that this will be the last flip before delivery because the nurse said that the head was in the correct position at my last visit. Also, the doctor said that our baby is long. I wonder how long! I start going to the doctor bi-weekly this week, then I will soon be going for weekly checkups, so I will keep you posted on any other tidbits of information that Dr. Simmons gives me. Oh, and my bedding should be finished this week, so I hope to have my nursery finished soon so I can post new pictures of the room.

You felt nothing.

Brant's face in that picture is hilarious! Will you email it to me?
