8th month

Our little Kevin is doing wonderfully. I feel great. Sometimes I look in the mirror and think..."am I really due in 7 weeks, cuz I sure don't look it or feel it". And then there are times when I try to get out of my car or I try to stand on my feet for 8 hours at work, or I try to eat without getting heartburn and I think, "Okay I definitley feel large and pregnant". I am posting a picture... so you guys be the judge on wether or not I "look" like I am due in 7 weeks.
Our friends just had their baby on the 9th of August, and as I sat there holding this cute little baby boy (if you can call 8.2 lbs little) I tried to imagine me with my little boy in my arms. Ya, I pretty much can't picture it. I mean I know there is something inside me because it moves without permission from me, but is he really going to be out here in the world with us in such a short while, is my body really creating life? It is such a miracle and I feel so incredibly blessed to have been given that responsibility.
We are making some final preperations for the chubbs (Adam's name for Kevin). We originally had a crib from my wonderful brother and sister-in-law, but we could not get it to be stable so we got frustrated and bought a crib set which should arrive this week. Then it's on to baby bedding, and making a baby blanket. I have requested that my mother make him a blanket because I LOVE my baby blanket that my grandmother made me, in fact I still sleep with it at night.
I have two baby showers coming up. One is on the 25th of August at 2:00 p.m. in cedar city. The other I am not quite sure when it is, but it is in St. George.
Well I don't want to bore you all too much here, so I will say tscuess for now (goodbye) and I will post again soon.
