Top 10 Things I Am Looking Forward to about NOT Being Pregnant!

I am two days away from being 35 weeks pregnant.  I have been very blessed to have had such a normal pregnancy (knock on wood).  However, I am starting to get uncomfortable, impatient, and tired.  I pray everyday that Jackson will be born healthy and when he is ready.  However, I am ready!



#10. I can't wait until I can see my feet again!
#9. I can't wait for my feet to be a normal size again.  They are huge along with my ankles.  Who am I kidding? I don't have ankles anymore; I definitely have cankles.  I know, so attractive!
#8. I want to be able to sleep without having to get up to pee.  ( I know that I will instead wake up to a crying baby, but at this point, it seems much better!
#7. I can't wait to sleep on my stomach. ( I know that people who are reading this are laughing and thinking "What sleep?")  I am just so tired to sleeping on my side!  I would settle for sleeping on my back!
#6. I am totally over the heartburn!  Done with it!
#5. I am tired of wearing maternity clothes.  I am so thankful for everyone who let me borrow clothes.  I don't what I would have done without those clothes.  I am over them now.
#4. I can't wait to start running/ exercising again!  We have had perfect running weather.
#3. I can't wait to NOT be HOT all the time!
#2. I am tired of the back pain!
#1. I CAN'T WAIT TO HOLD JACKSON IN MY ARMS!  It seems like this pregnancy has gone by pretty fast, but the last couple of weeks have dragged.  I am so ready for him to be here.  I can't wait to rock him and dress him in all of his cute little clothes!


There are some things that I will miss.  I definitely will not be able to eat all of the cupcakes and ice cream that I have been eating.  I will also miss Jackson moving and kicking (even kicking me in the ribs!). Tim has been wonderful!  He has not complained about rubbing my back or feet.  He has not complained about doing extra chores around the house. (I really can't bend over to get clothes out of the dryer anymore!)  I am so thankful to have a wonderful husband.  He is going to be the best dad!


Tim and I are so excited about Jackson getting here. We can't wait for him to meet his wonderful grandparents.  He is so lucky to have two sets of wonderful grandparents, great aunts and uncles, and the best cousins!
