Month Eight

June

Oh, I hope this tank top will be able to make it one more month! It's getting pretty snug! We ended this month with Annabelle being about the size of a pineapple.

I think the month of June was the best I've felt! I still had lots of energy and didn't really feel like I was carrying a bunch of weight. I kept pretty busy this month - finished up the last week of school, taught Vacation Bible School, took Joey to soccer camp and even suffered through the heat for an hour and a half to watch him, and went to the Jonas Brothers concert. I felt good enough to do all of these things and had a blast during all of it! June was a good month. It wasn't until July hit that the heat, swelling, and the weight of my belly on my feet started getting to me. I feel like I did do a lot of growing this month. I'm excited that I should only have one more monthly pic to take and then Annabelle will be here! This pregnancy has gone by so fast! It seems like just yesterday I wasn't even showing and was just in my beginning stages. I'm so eagerly awaiting her arrival! I can tell with the heat and the weight on my feet this month is going to prove to be more of a challenge for me. I plan on staying indoors as much as I can and taking it easy. And as all of my mommy friends are advising me, sleeping as much as possible. Even though, that is getting a little more difficult, but I've always been a good sleeper! Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers out there!
