Belly Babbling

Okay, this is my first post although I am in my 6th month (!!) of my second pregnancy. Just as a short overview, this is a much less dramatic pregnancy than my first, with less exaggerated symptoms (i.e. i'm all stretched out already!) However, it is equally as exciting and at times uncomfortable. I am definately to the point where I feel like a waddling cow (?) Well either way, very large, and very UN-graceful and/or UN-coordinated. Also, to the point where people feel the need to point out how pregnant I am and that my belly has grown dramatically in the last couple of weeks. YES, I know this people!!! Since generally I do not like attention from random people it kinda sucks having people stare and make random comments about babies or ask random questions, etc...However, on the lighter side of things, and not to get into too much detail about the many discomforts of pregnancy, I am in full shopping mode for the new little guy, and we have the baby's room almost completely set up. I have decided that I am kinda over the whole huge "room decorating" because I've been through it once and you do all of this work and all of the sudden he's a little boy, not a baby, and what do i do with all of the little cutsie stuff? I love going out and picking out all the little clothes and yummy smelling lotions and stuff; it makes it so real! Although I am a little perturbed that many of the things I hoped to have are suddenly missing, either lost at my sister's house or in some other state from moving so much. But it is nice to buy new stuff too, so it's ok. On a final note, I am still VERY anxious about the impending labor. I don't know what's worse; the first baby when you have no idea what labor will be like, or the children after, knowing exactly what you're going to go through. AHHHHH!!!! Josh does a good job of calming my nerves and at least I know how great the reward is for going through all of the pain!!
