Weeks Thirty-Five/Thirty-Six

August 5, 2013 by Aliesha

hey, look at this watermelon I’m smuggling under my dress!

Thanks for praying… Baby Punkin’ moved head-down, as of my appointment at 35 weeks!  Yay!

Oy… I’m totally feeling crazy pregnant these days and starting to pray that I’ll go early, or at least “on time” this time!  I am SO excited to meet our sweet boy and to put these days of backaches, leg cramps, and Braxton Hicks contractions behind me!

Feeling so blessed this week to have a healthy baby boy still growing safely inside me.  I’m praying that I have the endurance to make it through to the end of the pregnancy with a cheerful and grateful attitude!

    Aaah, it can be so hard to stay cheerful at the end, can’t it?! You’re so close though, these last few weeks will fly by! I’ve been a reader for a while now, congrats on adding a boy to the mix! I’ll be praying for a quick and safe delivery for you.

    Oh, good grief! Seeing Grammy’s comment makes ME cry!!! πŸ™‚ I should have just read the post and not the comments! πŸ˜‰

    Aliesha, I’ll be praying for you in this final stretch, that you’ll feel amazingly carried in His strong arms! πŸ™‚

    You look great! So glad he’s head down! I know that’s a relief to you.

    I’m praying for you as you go through these last few weeks. I know the waiting is hard. Praying you feel well and are able to enjoy this special time with just your girls. πŸ™‚
