Well, today I am 36 weeks pregnant. It went by so fast and now I'm starting to panic and wonder if I have everything I need and if I'm ready to be a mommy! I guess ready or not he's going to come so I'll just figure it out along the way and hope I don't screw little man up to much! I know what you all are thinking....how can she not feel like she's ready? She's had 9 whole months well this is what I say to you : P. Three of those months were taken up with Jason traveling for audition rotations and now we have the residency match coming up in 12 days! Needless to say out attention has been split between his future in the medical community and our future as a family. I know that I'm probably more prepared than I give myself credit for, but I'm still really anxious.
As I said Jason submitted his rank list last week for the residency match, so it is officially out of our hands. Ha like it ever was in our hands! Now on February 11th we will get a lovely email telling us if we have matched and if so where we will be moving our family to in May. I know that this is the moment that we have been working towards for the last 4 years, but I must admit I'm a little sad to be possibly leaving Ohio. I feel this way every time that we get ready to move on to the next stage in his schooling. Leaving Kirksville, MO was hard to (I know I'm crazy everyone else was running out of there after 2nd year and I was taking my time). I guess I always hope that the friends that I have made over the past two years keep in touch. Anyway.....soon we will know.
I have my last two week doctor appointment on Friday so I'll know more about how Little L is doing after that, but I do have to say he is still being an active little man. Recently his new favorite thing is to push on my side with his foot and just stretch out. Which I'm fine with for a little bit and then it starts to get uncomfortable, so I have started pushing back. It has turned into a little game of ours. Jason was able to feel his little foot the other night too and thought that was pretty crazy, and a little strange. He doesn't realize that I go everyday with that happening to me though. The end of my pregnancy overall has gone pretty well. Other than the usual aches and pains that every pregnant woman I guess is subjected to (which I have to rant a second is so unfair our bodies are changing enough don't we get to have a pass on the ache part of it I mean really come on!), the waking up 2-3 times a night to pee, and the slight swelling in my hands and legs, I am doing great. I am ready for him to finally be here and to see who he looks more like, and to get to know his personality. However, on the flip side I am going to miss having him in my belly knowing he's safe and feeling him move around. New adventures I guess!
I'll let you all know how the Dr.'s appointment goes on Friday and if there are any changes. Oh yeah I almost forgot go 49ers! Jason would have been upset if I didn't put that in there.
