Pregnancy 32 Weeks

I'm finally 32 weeks. I feel like this pregnancy is dragging on and on. I know that the next 8 or less weeks are going to go by even more slow. I still have a lot to do before this baby comes which I hope will keep me busy. .
A few months ago we switched from Dr. Dewey to Valley OB/GYN. I didn't feel like Dr. Dewey addressed my concerns and it was obvious he was not like Dr. Heath I had in Cedar. I am now wishing I would have stayed with Dr. Dewey, because with Valley OB/GYN you don't have one doctor you have 8. You never know who your appointment is going to be with, and you don't know who is going to deliver your baby. The doctors must not look at your chart before they come in to see you, because  they never know anything about my pregnancy. They always ask now far along I am.  The doctors rotate 12 hour shifts and the hospital, so whoever is there at the time I go into labor will deliver this baby. We have only met 3 or the 8 doctors so far which is a slight concern for me. I really wish we still lived in Cedar so I could go back to Dr. Heath.
Since Christmas Kambri and I have taken turn getting sick. It's not for the lack of my obsessive cleaning and sanitizing. For the last almost 3 weeks I have been taking my turn at getting sick and I think it has caused a lot of trouble for this pregnancy. I haven't been eating as much, sleeping only  a few hours a night and I'm not sure I have been drinking as much. I have been so obsessed with keeping the house cleaned and sanitized I may be overdoing it. The last 2 days I have had a lot of Braxton Hicks and have felt a lot of pressure when I sit down. When we went to the doctors I had him check to see if I was dilated, because of all the pressure. He said I wasn't dilated, but my cervix was definitely thinning and I needed to keep my feet up and not overdo it. I'm sure this isn't to much cause for concern, but I think I'll try to not do as much as I have been doing.  
We are excited for our new little addition. We try to talk to Kambri as much as we can about what is going to happen and get her excited. She always says her brother is in belly. I hope the transition goes smooth. Hopefully we can keep this little guy cooking for 5 or 6 more weeks and he come out a health strong baby.

Christmas 2012

This year for Christmas we decided we would stay home and start our own traditions. Christmas eve we made cookies for Santa and watched Christmas movies all day. Kambri still didn't understand the concept of Santa, but I think she understood after she saw all her gifts on Christmas morning. On Christmas morning Courtney and I got up around 6:30, but there was no sign up Kambri getting up, so we got all ready and packed to go to his parents house later that day. We had to wait for Kambri until 8 it was torture for us. Once she got we went to see what Santa brought and she was in heaven. She would play with one thing at a time and it took about 2 hours for her to open all her gifts. We had so much fun on Christmas morning and we can't wait until next year.
