Full Term!

I am officially full term and so excited for that! I just really want to meet this little guy. I won't lie though....I am looking forward to these darn pains going away! I had some cramping and those fun pains last night for a few hours. But, I can do this! Haha....think positive right?! I've been getting nervous about things though. I was induced with my first one, so I'm really wondering what will happen with this one. I'm afraid that I will be out grocery shopping with my little man and my water breaks. I'm hoping this one comes on his own. The pains were so bad with being induced. I'm also not looking forward to that whole process. I have to try and not think about it too much!

My sister is coming over today to hang out with Jamie. I'm really hoping to get some stuff done around the house. I just have to remember to pace myself so I'm not paying for it later. It will be nice to have a small break from the little one also. He is hitting his terrible 2's for sure! He has beeen throwing some nice fits and being super attached to us at times. I feel bad for needing a break, but I think it is good for both of us. I think the hardest thing when Oliver is born, is me being away from Jamie. I'm not worried about how he will react to the baby....he loves babies...and I know, we will have our days.

Eric's big 5K is this weekend and I'm getting excited for him. He has been working real hard on his running. It will be a very early day for us, but it will be a fun day. There is another 5K in our town in October that he also wants to do. We talked about gettting some nice, expensive running shoes next year. I want to make sure this is something he really wants to do and with him only doing 2 races this year, it doesn't really make sense to get them now. I think running is something that he will keep doing. It makes me feel like a whimp though because I cannot run! I have such bad knees and asthma that I can't do it. I do like how a lot of the 5K's have walks also, so I will probably do some of those next year. My mother-in-law is also training for a 100 mile bike ride. I'm going to look up different bike rides in Michigan...maybe there are ones that are shorter than 100 miles! I like to ride my bike and it is something that I can do pretty easily with my knee problems. It will be a good way to stay in shape also. Oh, I've also decided to join the Zumba craze after Oliver is born! It looks fun.
