Well, today was the day I said good bye to my wonderful sister and friend Kimberly, along with her family. I have pics of course, but no way to get them on my blog just yet (they'll come!) She and her family are moving to Australia which to her is "home". It was bittersweet for all of us. I'm sooo excited that Kimberly has finally taken this leap into the unkown because she has wanted to for a very long time. I think it'll be an axciting adventure! But I'm selfish in my thought that I'd rather her stay here just to be with me. I'm glad that she's going though, like I said. It got me thinkng though...how much do we appreciate the people that mean so much to us? And, do they know how much we love them? What if tomorrow, some one you loved very dearly was suddenly gone and you didn't know if you would see them again or not? Would you have any regrets? The week before Kim and fam left, I drove the hour drive to Sandy very frequently. While driving there (and using almost a full tank of precious gas) I suddenly didn't care as much about the gas money, or the "long" drive. I knew that in a few days it wouldn't be as easy to see her and that I was lucky it was only one hour~! That's a lot easier than a 18 + hour flight!!! I hope that I can start to care more about the people I love and show them my love and support regardless of the sacrifice it takes to see them. I hope you ALL know that I love you!
On a different note. I'm 35 weeks along and counting. This baby is getting BIG! Sleep is a precious thing now. If it's not heartburn, then it's the heat that keeps me up. And just when I get comfortable, the baby will start moving (kicking hard) which means, she doesn't like that position and I have to move~! I love my husband, but I am very frustrated because he is asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow. His advise to help me sleep is "just sleep, it's not that hard!" If only he knew :) BUT I'm SO happy that I can have a baby. What a blessing this little baby will be in our life. Only 5 weeks left to go!

Husbands, they are so logical. Bryan used to tell me to "just sleep" to, little do they know what it feels like. I am so happy for you, I am excited for that baby of yours to come. I will have to come see you, and we will have to get together and do things with our little girls. Well goodluck with everything and let me know when she comes.
Oh i love your blog today! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, we sure love you guys and it was so good to see you the other week. I can't believe your so close to having your baby! I can't wait to see her. Anyway, i didn't know kim was moving! I'd love to see the pictures you took.
I love you and miss you! Thank you for making that uncomfortable drive just to see me and my family before we left...I know that you were always there for us...good luck with this cute little baby girl you are about to have...Mum is excited to be there and I wish that I was too! Send me tons of photos...I love you, crying now-gotta go..
By the time I was as far along as you are, I referred to my bed as the torture chamber!!! That is what it is when you are 35 weeks pregnant. Don't worry husbands usually start to get it after you've stopped having kids!:)
