I've run out of space

I am 35 weeks 4 days pregnant at this moment and I've run out of space. Everything in my mid-section feels like there is just no more space left this little guy and as much as I love being pregnant, I hate this feeling.
What is amazing to me is that if this pregnancy was the same as my first pregnancy, my water would break tomorrow morning. And if this pregnancy was the same as my second pregnancy, I would have another 3 weeks 3 days left to go and the baby would end up being almost 9lbs.
I'm hoping this time I find myself somewhere in the middle.

Well I sure kept up

I said I would keep on this, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see I failed. I failed pretty badly.

Now I have something I would like to work towards so it brought me back to my lovely blog. I am pregnant, almost 35 weeks pregnant and I still have a lot of extra weight on from Jameson's pregnancy. Not only is it unhealthy for me to walk around with an extra 40lbs on, I'm just not happy with the way I look or the clothes that I am able to wear.

I even had a man comment to me that I was pregnant.....when I wasn't. Matter of fact Jameson was 6 months old when he made that comment and it made me feel awful. Not awful enough to do something about it, I was under the impression that I would just lose the weight. It would melt off. That didn't happen and now with baby #3 on the way soon I know I need to do something for my own self image.

I have made the decision to train for a 50 mile bike ride. And not just any bike ride but one at 10,000 feet in the Rocky Mountains. It's a personal goal and the more people I tell, the more motivated I will be to get this done and show everyone I am able to.

Having three kids doesn't equal being frumpy and overweight, I can have my babies and my body. This much I know, it just all depends on how much work I am willing to put into this. So this blog may be all over the place with stories about family, stories about life and stories about weight loss but I think that gives everyone a real sense of who I am and what type of life I lead.
