Juggling Oranges!

(8/24) Non-stress test, round 2. Baby A thought it was nap time again and I failed to drink enough before my test so I had mini contractions all morning.  Sorry guys, I'll drink more next time so we're not on the monitor forever!

I had to laugh at the conversation that I had on the elevator.
Random Guy: Getting close?
Me: Nah, I still have two more months.
RG: Wow, you look full already.
Me (thinking): Gee, thanks?

(8/26) 31 weeks!   BabyCenter says:
This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy. See what your baby looks like this week.
I can definitely testify to the 3am party session that often wakes me.  I can't even wrap my head around how much more this belly is going to grow in the next 7 weeks.   Yeep!  But as much as that seems a bit intimidating, every inch closer to 36 wks makes me breathe easier.  So, grow babies, grow! 

8/26; 31 wks!
And now, for some alien belly!
