38 weeks...and ready to burst

When I was first pregnant we were taking pictures of my growing belly every 4 weeks, but all of the sudden it wasn't fun anymore to see how huge I was getting. But my mom talked me into it and told me I'd regret not having record of it...so here's the belly these days. I think we might have a 10 pounder on our hands...
And this is just a picture that Mike took of us in our family room/kitchen/study. We moved in at the end of June and really love it here. It's still in the same area as our old place, just about a 10 minute walk away. The place came fully furnished except for a few things we've bought used online (the TV and glider chair in the corner). And the tenants before us left the desk, which has been so nice to have. We were just using one of the kitchen chairs at the computer until we saw this office chair in a dumpster last week and snatched it up and rolled it all the way home!

you are not ready to burst. I'll show you a picture of me at 38 weeks and then you'll feel much smaller.

Well good news is that your counter says only 11 days to go! You honestly look great though, but I can imagine it's hard to believe that when you feel like you're bigger than a house.I can't wait to see pictures of the baby!

Em, what a nice place!! I love it! You are the cutest little pregnant girl! You are on the home stretch! Your mom is right you will regret it, I never took any picts and I wish I would have! So I was thinking the other day the my sister in law is on a mission in London, so if you see a Sister McCall Pedersen for some odd reason tell her hello for me. Let's be honest though, London is huge so I doubt you will see her. Anyway, hang in there, just a little to go!
