I wanna go too....

I can't believe that it is already August. July went by pretty quick. I am about 6 weeks away from my due date. It seems like it is really far away, but I know that it is not. We don't have any plans or vacations coming up, so I think that is why I think that September seem so far away. Having the baby is the next big thing that we are looking forward to. Tony and I have talked about maybe getting a hotel for a couple days at the end of the month and having a little us time before this baby comes. So that would be fun. Tony's mom said that she would watch Tyler for the weekend so that we could do that. She is so good to us.
My family leaves to go to Oregon this weekend for the annual family reunion that they have there every year. We haven't been able to go since Tony and I have been married because between the two of us we either always had school or we could afford to go. This year we were totally planning on going, but then we Tony went to get the time off of work, other people had already requested the time off. So this year we aren't going because Tony couldn't get the time off (and it is cutting it close with the whole baby thing)...bummer. THEN, Tony's family is all going to California the week after that to go to Disneyland and since it is within a month of my due date, we can't go to that either. And I didn't think that would be such a good idea to be 8 months pregnant and walk around hot Disneyland for a couple of days. So sad, I could use a vacation.
I am a little bummed that everyone else is going on vacation and we aren't going any where. Tony's mom is going to take us to Disneyland in March, so we are really looking forward to that. It will be lots of fun. We will really need some time off by then.
So I have been having some pretty intense braxton hicks contractions lately. I never felt any contractions at all when I had Tyler until I was induced. So this is very different for me. I am mainly getting them in the evenings and it is just so different. I guess it is a good reason to slow down and rest. Yesterday I though my tummy was going to burst it was so tight. It is a pretty weird feeling. This baby is getting anxious to come out, but aren't we all.
