Man... that was a bad case of Mexican... ha ha... ahh! Can you believe we're having a baby? The reality is, er, very real now. :) I still am loving pregnancy. There are little things here and there that are tough - mainly leg cramps, but with enough bananas (potassium), calf massages (man, my hubby is AWESOME), and warm baths (relaxing on a number of levels), it's all good!

I'm 32 weeks now. It's getting very close. I've been thinking lately how much carrying a child is like the X-files. Yes, the X-files. I've never seen that actual show, but I mean the supernatural coming alive in a real tangible way - in a SCI-FI way. Watching my belly roll, feeling the baby's hiccups, and knowing that eyelids, hair, the brain, etc. are all forming is just such an extraordinary and WILD experience. It's hard for me to believe that this is how God made it to work. There are some things that I've done with my body - like the mini-marathon, tennis teams, showchoir, dance and gymnastics. I can think of times where I "pushed" my body and was proud when I crossed the finish line or won a match and thought that was cool to see what the body was capable of. But, nothing compares to this experience. I'm very aware lately that there are many that struggle with being able to get pregnant, and I cherish this experience and don't take it for granted b/c I know it is a true gift. I'm thankful that for some reason God allowed me to experience it...
