31 Weeks and no Room to Go!

Yesterday, I hit 31 weeks! I can't believe there are only about 9 weeks left until Jace arrives. I'm pretty excited, but at the same time can't believe I'm going to get bigger than I am. Here is my 31 week picture!
31 Weeks 0 Days with Jace!
Not the most flattering shot, but you know? Who cares, haha. See where my upper hand is? Jace usually wedges himself up in there on my right side into my ribs. I can barely sit sometimes because of how well he wedges himself in there and this has been happening for about the last two weeks.

 Also, I am so sore that I can hardly get out of bed. It is so lame when I have to pee in the middle of the night multiple times and the pain from getting up out of bed is almost enough to make me cry. I think most of the pain is a combination of pregnancy pains and my fibromyalgia combined. I had lower back pain before I got pregnant from it, and it went away for a good while when I got pregnant again, but now it's back with a vengeance! I don't know how on Earth I am going to get around as I grow bigger with Jace. I enjoy every little kick with him though.

 I'm pretty excited too, Babies R Us is having a special, which they have every so often, where if you bring in used baby gear you can get 25% off new gear. Only one piece applies to each new purchase though, so no doubling up on the same item sadly. I am going to trade in my stroller (which I totally love) for a new double stroller, a Sit-N-Stand DX Stroller by Baby Trend. This stroller has a front seat like a normal stroller and then a platform and a platform seat in the back where the older child can either sit down and ride or stand on the platform and ride standing. This will separate Michael and Jace so that Michael doesn't accidentally smother or bash his little brother while riding next to him in side by side double strollers. Plus, as much as I love my single stroller, what's the point in keeping it when I need a double and Michael isn't quite big enough to walk everywhere with us yet, and this way he can still ride?

 I also just got my car back tonight after it overheated and ruined some of my parts. It cost $800 to fix, and took 4 days for them to fix it. It was a long 4 days without a car! It's okay though since I'm too sore to go anywhere. :/

 Well, that's it for now!
