31 Weeks

We only have nine short weeks left. This week our baby should be over 16 inches long and weigh a little over 3 pounds. For the last few weeks, I've been feeling more and more tired. It's not as bad as the first trimester, but I've been going to bed before 9 each night and can easily sleep for 12 hours. Everyone was right when they said that the second trimester is the best. I felt good that whole trimester. Below is a belly picture at 31 weeks.

Today I ran into Jimmy Johns to grab a couple of sandwiches to bring home for lunch. Joel called and wanted a "Vito" (a name of a sandwich), so I didn't argue and decided I could go for a BLT myself. The young man working behind the register took a couple of good looks of my belly while I walked to the register. I gave him my order...a Vito, BLT, and a pickle. He then asked me: "Is that all for you?" I responded: "Yes." He then glanced at my belly again, and then proceeded to ask: "No, I mean, is that ALL for YOU?" I chuckled and told him: "No, actually my husband wanted a Vito, so ran in for lunch." He laughed and told me he was just joking. I sure hope that he doesn't ask that question to every pregnant woman that walks in. I don't know if everyone else would brush it off and laugh along with him like I did.

We have Christmas as Aunt Roycelyn's tomorrow and that means it's officially the beginning of Christmas. I've finished our shopping, and am as ready as I'll ever be for Christmas this year!
