Big Belly Getting Bigger

I've been printing pictures for my thank you notes along with pics starting this baby journey and it hit me how big my belly has gotten! This picture to the right was taken at our 20 week appointment and if you compare that to the maternity pictures we just took it's almost shocking how HUGE Amie is. Or I guess how big Mr. Trykk is haha. Makes me laugh because I thought I was soo big around 20 weeks ha yeah right!! Then you don't even realize how much bigger it does get! SHOCKING!
I must admit I'm getting to that point where I feel like I may not be able to take much more of this! I am beyond tired this last week and at the same time going stir crazy. I feel like I should be doing so much right now but theres not much I can do! This weekend coming up will be the first weekend I've had to just sit and relax since before Thanksgiving! I've threatened Doug that if he doesn't get his butt home from work early to spend time with me I will be going on strike from scratching his back for a whole week! Please come out soon little boy...we want to meet you :)

Thank goodness for a new year! 2010 here we come!

Oh how the time goes...slipping right through my fingers! I'm so ready for my baby shower because after that I can calm down and let things happen as they should! This baby is growing by the day and I fear my stomach can't stretch to much more. Or I suppose I just don't want it to haha! I already can't reach my toes...well I probably could but it's a struggle and somewhat painful at that. I wake up more during the night and with that comes increased bathroom breaks as well as waking up Dougie to get me water :). He hates that part of course.

We are both very excited after taking a tour of the hospital where the baby will be born. I looked at him and said "I'm getting nervous babe!" and he says "Me too but excited nervous!". Seeing that smile on his face was enough to make me melt. I know he is going to be such an outstanding Daddy! I feel so blessed to have him by my side!

Doug and I went to the sand dunes for our New Years holiday!! We had sooo much fun playing in the sand! Ha just kidding. We got to ride around in some really cool stuff but of course I took it easy. Doug was really good about driving slow enough that it wouldn't shift me into labor! We got to spend time with some really great friends and again ensures all the blessings of a new year! I can't wait to see how 2010 continues...BRING IT ON!

We sat and watched the sunset on the top of "the hill"...very beautiful

Dirty Dougie Fresh! I love him so much...just wanna squeeze him!

Joey in the sand car...no joke riding in that thing is like riding in a luxury vehicle...can't feel a thing!
