Update

I'm officially a waddler! I wish someone would just roll me around like a barrel. I feel huge. I can't put my socks on anymore nor can I wash my feet thouroughly, but Chloe does a good job licking them.

All is well with Kate. Heartbeat is strong at 155bpm. Her movements have become slower, but stronger and I've noticed she moves after I eat...quite opposite from her cousin, Jack.

This Friday, I will be going in to the hospital to get my 3 hour glucose tolerance test. I'll have to fast the night before and am not allowed to eat or drink anything besides water. This is going to torture me since I love eating breakfast.

Ellie's been really sweet about this whole baby business. The other day, she put one of her lambies under her shirt and walked around like she was pregnant. "I've got a baby in my tummy, Mom." And when she talks to Kate, she puts her mouth right up to my belly and speaks in a low voice, "Hiiiiii Kaaaate." or "Goooood mooooorrrrnning Kaaaate."

I can't believe it's already 8 months. I'm deathly afraid of what life will be like after Kate's born. I may never see daylight again.

Oh, and the glider I was going to purchase is out of stock! Figures.
