Baby Update - 30 weeks along! 10 to go!!!

Sorry it has taken so long to update our blog. I'm doing great, just feeling bigger and limited on bending over. I've gotten a couple leg cramps at night, those things hurt! It's hard to roll over at night because I have a pinched sciatic nerve (in the hip) that really bothers me when I try to flip over to the other side. I do get tired easier and living on the second floor and working on the second floor gives me exercise during the day. Stretch marks have found their home on my belly, fun times. I'm down to doctor visits every two weeks, which will last for two months, instead of once a month that I have been doing. In the last month I'll be going every week. Then it'll just be a waiting game until our little girl makes her appearance! We both check out right on schedule and healthy at our visits. We're taking two baby classes the last two Saturdays of March in preparation of our new arrival.

Eva Caroline is moving around like crazy! We're calling her a gymnast because she seems to be flipping and doing somersaults. According to my internet and book sources, she is about 3 pounds and 15.7 inches long. She gets daddy time almost daily when Ricky talks to her and gives her kisses, it's very cute. We've both felt her and SEEN her move, it's weird. We haven't started playing "Guess The Body Part" yet, but know it's not far away to see what she's poking out and showing us.

Sorry, don't really have any belly pics yet. We're working on getting some done towards the end of April so I'll be huge enough to notice. I'm still getting comments that I don't look 6 months pregnant. Of course I do wear some pretty busy patterned tops, so it makes me look not as big. When I turn sideways people say, "Oh yea, I see now". I'm almost due to do maternity shopping, my tops are getting shorter and shorter.

We'll try and get some pictures up before the ones in April. Hope everyone is doing well. Love ya all!
