Being pregnant is a blessing. Who would ever believe that I could make my own child, and with no hands. Going through a pregnancy is a very interesting and fascinating experience. As I near the end of my experience, here are the things I will miss.
1. Having a constant stream of acid coming up my throat.
2. Scaring strangers who ask when I’m due by saying…”I don’t know what you are referring to.”
3. Having my brother tell me I look like an overfilled water balloon.
4. Being a superstar in public.
5. Having a good excuse to eat a Big Mac.
6. Getting high centered while turning over in bed.
7. Not being able to breathe at night unless I take a Sudafed.
8. Being all hopped up on Sudafed at night and not being able to sleep.
9. Finding something to wear to church.
10. Thinking of things to tell people when they ask what her name is going to be. By the way, we’re naming her Bubbles. Bubbles Sunshine Sokol. Cute huh?
11. Having Alyssa throw balls at my belly in an effort to play catch with baby sister.
12. Having Alyssa stick raisins in what is left of my belly button in an effort to “share” with baby sister.
As I finish reminiscing about pregnancy, I have to give a shout out to Steve who has been very supportive and patient throughout this whole pregnancy. He has been a real trooper getting me things, picking stuff up off the floor, taking my sox off, keeping my water bottle full, bringing me my prenatal vitamin (when he doesn’t take it himself), listening to my grunts when I am trying to move around in bed or get off the couch without rolling his eyes.
He has also been a champion at insisting we practice our Hypnobirthing techniques.

I sooo hear you on the sudafed thing when prego. And then you're laying in bed trying to sleep and then you wake yourself up because you have to sit up to roll over. I love the raisins in the belly button thing too.
I love it! I'm glad you can still look at the whole pregnancy thing with so much humor. It is a miracle, though, and worth every miserable experience you're put through. At least nobody could stick a raisin in my belly button!
You just reminded me why I'm not having any more kids. That and the pic of baby poo of Barbies Bottles and Boys on the blogs of note. Pregancy? Pass.
Don't forget about the great parking spaces at the Wal-Mart.
True... true... all true! I know a solution... just keep having babies! We could have like 10 of them! It would be great!
I can't wait! J/K So has anyone ever told you that you look like Ginger Spice? I can see it in this picture. By the way, you look so cute even though pregnant. I hope I have the energy to keep up my appearance and not the desire to just give up!
you look so cute! i personally loved getting up 2 times a night to pee. that was so much fun!
and eating all the chocolate covered donuts that i wanted...mmmm...donuts
Look how cute you are! I should have took to heart all of the labor advice you gave me at my shower. I had no clue!! It was nice though that somebody tried to warn me!
you are so funny. I love the raisin sharing. That is so cute. When is your due date again?
2 times a night to pee...try every hour! This prego woman is glad this is her last! The Lester's are DONE! Krissy...it is a blast being prego at the same time as you. It is a blast being your friend! It is a blast that my kid may have infected your kid with hand, foot, and mouth...maybe not a blast, but I'm glad we are sharing in things together!
Luvs,

Kristin! you are so funny! I love it! And i think you are one hot momma :) I can't wait to see your cute little girl! I love the name bubbles :)
I love it, you are so darn funny, I just love you for being you.
Oh my gosh. This made me laugh sooo hard. Especially the "I don't know what your referring to" part.
