5 weeks and 3 days to go!

It has been about 8 days since the last time I got to blog. Collin is still being his stubborn self and has not turned yet. Still saying yet, really hoping that he does it on his own. Some things have been changing. He is still getting bigger. Josh was out of town for a week and when he came back I told him I looked different and he said no you won't, and sure enough when he walked in the door he was like oh my goodness. Collin has gotten a lot bigger and you can see the entire outline of him in my tummy. Really crazy. Still no more kicking he just rolls around and stretches a lot. You can see all of this. I love and dislike it all at the same time. When he moves or stretches it hurts, yet when he isn't moving I get nervous and rub my tummy hoping that he will do it again.

I have been more emotional too. Mommy hormones are crazy. I cry at the littlest things. When Josh came home I wanted to show him some more things we got for Collin. So there we are sitting in Collin's room and I show Josh a stuffed animal that sings the ABCs and I lose it. I start crying and I can't stop. Josh just smiles and me and I say leave me alone, its all these hormones. Little things during the week keep making me emotional. Yesterday I worked on trying to set up his baby monitor. A Digital Graco with two parent units. IT WON'T WORK!~~~ it was driving me crazy. And of course I started to cry because I couldn't make it work. So after taking a deep breath I think it is the batteries that came with it. So I am taking it back today and getting a new one.

So besides getting bigger my hands and feet are still super swollen. Sleep it really hard to come by. I feel like I am a penguin, I just waddle around. I have been trying to walk more and more, I stop once my knees hurt. I feel like I have started counting down the days and mins it seems. I am getting so excited, I cannot wait for him to get here. Josh is really getting excited too. I love that! He sends me text messages throughout the day asking how is Jr doing or is Jr being nice to mommy today? Too cute!
