40 weeks

40 weeks. Who is 40 weeks pregnant?! Okay.. a lot of people are, but I didn’t think I would be one of them. Remember how I measured 'ahead' all pregnancy?! UGH! I am dying to get this baby here in SO many ways it hurts. First, Kailee gets baptized on the 5^th.. so I need to be out of the hospital by then! 2^nd, I’m 40.. yes, FOURTY weeks pregnant! I thought you were supposed to be done at 40 weeks?! To see this milestone hit and nothing, is super frustrating.
Due date:   Aug 27, 2015.. TODAY!

What fruit are you: Jackfruit

How far along:  making me say it again?! 40 weeks

Next appointment:  tomorrow (August 28th)

Gender:  Boy!

Maternity clothes: Sick of them all! ;)

What I'm looking forward to: My appointment and kissing this sweet baby!
