The expectant mom in the kitchen

So, I'm cooking dinner last night and realized I can no longer (comfortably) reach the back burners because I've gotten so big. After dinner, I was doing the dishes (usually DH does them but he was out and there weren't that many), and realized that my arms were stretched out to their full length over the sink.

And today I noticed that I've pulled my laptop all the way to the edge of my desk.

One month to go!

 
How true this is. I gained 17 and hubby gained 25.

Good thing we didn't have a car and walked everywhere or it would have been worse!

 
My delicate little flower of a wife went from having me finish...

...at least half of every plate she ordered in a restaurant BC (before childbearing) to making her own Hot Italian Beef w/ Melted Provolone, Sauteed Peppers, Onions, and Mushrooms, A-1 Sauce, Worchestershire Sauce, Dijon On A Crusty Italian Bakery Hoagie Roll, and then.... 20 minutes after downing the last bite, asking, "Did I eat already? What's for dinner?"

Wow. What a heady time.

My grandmother gave me some really good advice for the last month...

If you have anything that you would LIKE to do or that you HAVE to do, do it NOW! But most of all, have fun, remember every moment (write them down). One month will fly by!

 
Neither of my boys had a ninth month. DW decided she wasn't going to do month number nine, so...

...both boys came 4 to 5 weeks early.

They were both healthy and went home less than 24 hours after being born.

Go figure...
