I'm 37 weeks on Thursday... Can ya'll believe that?! I could have him by this weekend! Levi and I are all set to bring Milo William and Cash William to the hospital. I know which one I'm leaning towards but we'll see what he looks like! :)
I've officially dropped, so I think it should be anytime now! I'm very swollen and very exhausted but still holding up... It's just getting to that point where sleeping, walking, lifting or doing anything else is just a lot more challenging. I've been falling asleep in the recliner and then Levi keeps having to wake me up so I get actually get in bed... For some reason I just haven't been able to fall asleep in our bed.
Bentley keeps asking if the baby is coming... He's just so cute with everything. Always wanting to help me get something and he always wants to do everything himself. It's funny though, because as Bentley gets super independent, Rafe gets very very clingy. He's just wanted nothing but cuddles lately. I have a feeling he's going to need a bit more attention once the baby gets here. It's funny, because Rafe is the more stubborn and Bentley is more sensitive, but they seem to have switched in that way!
I really hope Rafe adjusts well! Heck, I hope IIIII adjust well, haha. ;)
Hope ya'll are well!

Spring is in the air!
And so is pollen. :l My allergies are TERRIBLE! I've been sneezing and itching almost 24/7 the past few weeks. :( Plus it's been terribly hot. It even got into the 90s a week or two ago. :l It's been mostly mid-80s... Yesterday I was at a tournament for my brother, and we were sitting in bleachers. It was already like, 88 degrees with 80% humidity, and then sitting in the metal bleachers just rose the temperature 10-20 degrees. I was sitting in those things for hours, and I ended up getting dehydrated and getting heat stroke and passed out. :l It was a crazy ordeal and Levi took me to the ER to make sure everything was okay, and everything is totally fine, so no worries. It was terrible though, I was so nauseous and hot. I don't know why I got heat exhaustion, since I usually deal just fine with hot temperatures. I really think it was the bleachers that did me in. I got a tan on my legs, though. :) Even though it's a farmers tan....... I have a tan line where my shorts and sperrys were. Thank goodness I didn't wear my boots or sandals, those tan lines would have been terrible.
Anyway, I'm 34 weeks pregnant and getting super uncomfortable now. I can't believe how close we are! I'm really to the point where I'm just through with being pregnant. I'm super swollen and just want to lay around all day, but with two toddlers that's completely impossible, and when Levi gets home I'm just SO exhausted. The baby's room is all ready and we have everything we need, so at least that's all figured out! We're still not really sure on names, and I'm just completely sure that I need to see what he looks like before I can even narrow down anything.
Neither of my first two pregnancies was this hard towards the end... I am so big with this baby, it's not even funny. I seriously have been asked by strangers if A) I'm 2 weeks overdue, B) I'm having twins/triplets or C) I stuffed a beach ball underneath my stomach. I'm just SO big. I've never been this big or this uncomfortable, and I'm seriously starting to worry how big this baby is. I have wide hips so I'm not too worried about having to have a C-Section because he's too big, but we'll see. Because I had Bentley&Rafe at 37 weeks and was on bedrest with Rafe, I'm already going to the doctor every week just to make sure everything is going how it should. So far, so good, so hopefully he can hold off until 38 or so weeks (although I really don't know if I can make it!)
Levi is so excited about graduating, and I'm so proud of him! He says he wants to get a motorcycle for his graduation present.... Uhhhh, hell to the no. There's better things to spend money on, and besides - I know way too many people who have been in terrible motorcycle accidents.
We're also still looking to buy a new car for me. We've shopped around a bit, and right now I'm looking at the newer Hyundai Tuscon (I had the old one before), a Ford Expedition, a Chevy Tahoe and a GMC Denali. I'm leaning towards the Expedition or Tahoe, but we'll see what we can afford and what will work best. Mostly I'm just concerned about where I'm putting 3 carseats... That's the ONLY thing I don't like about having kids so close together is that it's going to be so hard to put all 3 kids in the car at one time, since two will go in the middle row and one in the back (or two in the back and one in the middle if I can find a car that has seats that fold down for storage, which is what will work best).
And last, I will leave you with the new and improved list of names with meanings. :) The meaning of William is strong willed warrior, and the meaning in parenthesis is the meaning of the first name. :)
Milo William (Soldier)
Samuel William (His Name is God)
Reilly William (Valient)
Elijah William (The Lord is my God)
Cash William (Either Peacemaker or Maker of Chests, some websites said different things)
maybe:
Jacob William "Jake" (Supplanter)
Mathias William (Gift of God)
Oliver William (Elf Army)
Meanings of names are suddenly very important... I'd like them to have meaningful names. I mean, Levi's name is cool. His means (put together) God will uplift joined with Harmony. Mine is lame. It means great plant with berries. :l LAMEEEE. Bentley's name means Who is like God from the bent-grass feild. It's okay... The meaning of Bentley is kind of boring. Rafe's name means manly wolf counsel. Okay, not going to lie, that's an awesome name meaning.
