I am 36 weeks and time if flying by faster and faster. I feel pretty good and nothing is wrong so I can't really complain. I am tired again so I have been taking advantage of Jase's light work schedule by getting in some naps during the day. I seem to be a bit more uncomfortable than I was with Harlon. I feel SO much bigger! I'm not measuring big so it might just be in my head. Ha! Addie Mae moves A LOT more than Harlon ever did. Harlon was active, had the hiccups a lot and once he turned head down he had his hand in a rather uncomfortable place. Her movements seem huge. I can actually make out the body part when she moves. I never had that with Harlon. I can see her little bottom sweep across my belly. Maybe it's just because it's my second pregnancy and I am not clueless this time. We are still in the transition phase of Jase being home. It has been rather difficult dealing with Harlon. The little guy is about to be thrown for another loop so I expect more behavior problems soon. On top of everything else, he is a two year old! I couldn't love him more. I've only gained between 15 and 20lbs so far (which is good since I was heavier to begin with) but I have swelling this time. My face is puffy and my wedding ring no longer fits. Thank goodness for the cheap silver band at Target.
We are pretty much ready for Addie Mae's arrival. I just have to finish packing my hospital bag and make sure my breast pump still works. I am not sure how I am going to do it with two little ones and a husband who is gone a lot of the time. Just like everything else I do, I will just do it I guess. I am so looking forward to meeting our baby girl!
Since I am feeling so much bigger this time I thought it would be fun to compare myself, 36 weeks with Harlon and 36 weeks with Addie Mae. If I had the same shirt on it would be easier to tell but I don't think there is a lot of difference in the belly.

Jamie you look beautiful! So excited to here about Addie's arrival! It will be hard having two with a husband busy with work but you will get the hang of it quick! I had to invest in a gym membership to keep from going crazy about 6 months into having two :) Just make sure you have an outlet even if its just a pillow to scream into lol! Siblings are such a blessing and there is nothing sweeter then seeing them interact and loving on each other! Hang in there momma its almost here! (((HUGS)))
You look GREAT! I have to say, I really do just love your hair, A LOT! Won't be long ;-) Brenen wouldn't talk to me when I came home with Aiden :( He said he was mad at me, LOL! I didn't laugh at the time, but it's funny! When Damen was born Aiden says to me right as soon as he walks into the hospital room, "what store did you buy him from?" I just laughed and he looks me right in the eyes and says, "you need to take him back." It was funny! Can't wait to see her!
Thanks for sharing a new belly picture:) You look beautiful and happy. How exciting to know that your family of 4 is less than a month away!!! You are a super woman and will be able to care for two cute kids better than most. I can't wait to see you with your Addie:)
