Had a Dr. appt. today with an ultrasound that guestimated baby's weight to be 8.8 lbs
No wonder I feel like I can't walk and am about to tip over frontwards! All my babys have been under 7" 7!!!! So I'm a little alarmed but the Dr. didn't seem to be. They gave me a non stress test to check baby's movements and contractions and heartrate, that was all good.
Ultrasound pic showed the sweetest pics of her little feet and toes, and she had a covering of hair...Can you tell I'm getting all gushy ready to meet my baby girl???
Dr. checked my Cervix and it is still high and thick (which is normal for me)
, so she's not in a hurry to get out! They will induce at 39 weeks if cervix is thin enough they said, but I'm thinking, shoot if I make it that long, why not wait it out?! At least thats my rathers, but it depends on how miserable I get. 
They did give me pain pills for my back and legs, and that helps my sleeping some, but I still usally have a cry spell about every nite from hurting so bad!
Prayers needed here!
Lots of stuff going on around our house, things like....painting, moving furniture around, making another bedroom, washing up baby clothes and blankets....and finishing school!
The church gave me a really nice baby shower Sat. morning, lots of cute stuff, and some shopping money, which we've been using already. So far I've bought my stroller/carseat combo, and a highchair seat, a baby book, a nursing cover and a few other small things. Haven't bought or got alot of clothes yet, and I'm not taking tags off the ones we got so far, because who knows...those newborns just may be too small!
Well thats about it for now, sorry no new pics, haven't felt much like fooling with it lately.

Awww, blessings to you...she is close! I know that these final days seem oh so long though. I will be praying for you!
Thanks for the update! I always get exited when I see you posted again...hopefully with baby news soon! Enjoy setting up for baby girl...that part is always so mcuh fun!
Oh, can't wait to "meet" the new little one! I know you're miserable. Bless your heart! Wish I lived close enough to come over and visit with ya and help ya out. (((cool hugs))) lol
I miss being pregnant. Of course, I say that right now because I'm not almost due
Hope you're getting as much rest as possible!
I am bouncing-in-my-chair excited for you!!!! I really do hope you can hang (almost literally, huh?) in there with baby's time to be born! I think, from my experience, it's easier when you go the whole time and let God's design have its way. My babies were all over 8 lbs. and that was a killer for me being 5'2", but totally worth it. I'll keep praying for you as you approach week 40. ( 8
