- Baby boy is moving, but not much and it drives me crazy! The little stinker is definitely helping me to turn to the Lord more and trust Him that He is in control and not to fear. There are definitely days or moments when he moves a ton, and then there are days when I don't feel him move at all. He definitely doesn't move throughout the entire day and I hope that means he will be a good sleeper..wishful thinking :) I will say one of the best things we did was rented a heart monitor at the beginning of my pregnancy around 12 weeks. We use is about once a week, or when I have days I don't feel him, and it helps a ton!
- Still having lots of weird dreams at night, it's very entertaining
- How in the world do pregnant women shave their legs and tie their shoes? This is becoming more and more difficult. I get winded just putting on my shoes, it's ridiculous. One good thing about being pregnant in the summer, I can wear lots of flip flops and my shoes aren't too small for my giant feet
- Yes, my feet definitely swell pretty easy and look like monster feet at the end of the day. I try to wear tennis shoes as much as possible and that helps a lot.
- I don't work out as much as I used to, but try to walk about 3 times a week now. Its harder when it's so hot in the summer, but having a dog helps motivate me to take her for walks! I also go to the gym with Justin when I can and just walk on the treadmill.
- Here is normal conversation in the Cummings' home these days. Me: "It's SO hot in here! Aren't you hot?" Justin: "I'm actually cold" Dang it! It's true that I'm getting more hot than my extremely hot natured husband.
- I'm becoming more emotional again like I was in the first trimester. I'm thankful for a patient husband!
- I'm enjoying the comments and questions from the kiddos at church each week, they are so funny! They ask how Cooper is doing all the time, and each time I ask for prayer requests, they will say pray for baby Cooper. They are so cute. One girl said she was so glad Cooper was coming early October so he could go trick or treating...hate to miss out on that! One visitor asked me yesterday so bluntly "do you have a baby in your belly?" Thankfully, I do :)
- Justin and I booked a short getaway at a resort in San Antonio to celebrate our anniversary before the baby is born. Since our anniversary is just a week before his due date, we will be celebrating it the month before. It will be a good time for us to just get away and relax and have our "baby moon" before our lives change forever.
- It's really hard to picture having a baby in our home in just 10 weeks. I really can't imagine it. Our lives are going to change so much. It's coming though and I'm so excited!

30 weeks
This week I am 30 weeks pregnant. I have made it to the 30's! Only 10 weeks to go...the end is in site. As I have said before, I do love being pregnant, but it is taking forever and I'm just ready to hold my baby boy. I'm ready to be a stay at home mom and start my new career. Time is just crawling by it seems. I am very thankful that I have had a pretty uneventful pregnancy so far. No big drama, nothing abnormal, no complications, and still feeling pretty good for 30 weeks. I don't have much to update on but here is what's going on at 30 weeks:

Yay! VERY EXCITING!!! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessed time for you, Justin and baby Cooper. And what a blessing that I get to enjoy reading to updates in your blog. It makes it very special for me as Cooper's grandmother that I get to participate in this way. Learning about him even before his birth. How awesome is that! Love you Tracy, Mary
