More Showers and Less Sleep

Holy Cow!!! I'm going to have a baby in less than 6 weeks!!!!!! It's so crazy and so exciting!!! Aside from my freaking out on how close its getting, a lot has been happening....

This past Saturday was a full day of showering Riley. That morning some sweet friends of mine threw me a breakfast shower and oh my was the food so delicious!! We had a great time talking, eating and opening presents! My sister and I then went back to my house to unload and take a quick nap. Then it was on to shower #2 for the day. We grew up at a small church in the area and there are several ladies from that church that are all really close to my mom. They were all there when each other had kids and now they all throw wedding/baby showers for all their kids. Its a precious group of ladies that have been such a blessing and incredible Godly influence in my life and I am so grateful for each of them. It was also the shower that all of mine and Jeremy's family were invited to. It was a sweet time with friends and family celebrating the soon coming little Riles.... and we got tons of good stuff for her! It was such a fun filled day and I am so very blessed to have so many people show such love for Jeremy and I and our soon to be here little girl! I also realized I didn't take any pictures from the morning shower but here are some from the afternoon shower.

Today I am 34 weeks/3 days and only getting larger. For the first time in this whole pregnancy I am beginning to get uncomfortable. Sleeping is becoming very difficult, going to the bathroom is more frequent and you can forget about bending over. Never will I take for granted the ability to bend over and put socks on because these days it is quite humorous to watch and very exhausting to accomplish. Heartburn is becoming my greatest enemy.. oh how I loathe you heartburn. I am very grateful for my new friend Zantac who conquors the heartburn. My belly button has made itself very known and almost impossible to hide. A definite bonus in getting bigger is I know Riley is getting bigger. She is also very active. There are very few times when I'm sitting down that she doesn't move. 34 down and 6 more to go!!
