Hello Everyone,
Yes, I'm still pregnant. I'm 37-weeks-pregnant today. Only 20 days left until my June 13th due date. And man I hope I've had the baby by then. Lately, I haven't been sleeping well at all. I wake often with horrible pain in my hips and have to roll over only to wake a little while longer and have to roll over to the other side again. And it is very hard to breath right now. I always feel out-of-breathe. Last week at my midwife appointment I actually lost 1/2 a pound! That was great. So far, I have kept on schedule with my weight gain. I haven't reached the dreaded 35 weight again goal yet. Hopefully I won't. This is great since with my other 2 I gained oh like, 50 pounds.
I've been super busy lately getting session 4 done with school and getting ready for the baby's arrival. I have been making a lot of meals and freezing them. And yesterday Daniel and I got the bassinet out. You'd think it would have been a fun, exciting thing, but it wasn't. I still can't believe we are about to have another baby.
We are still grieving the death of our Guido. The kids keep asking when we are going to bring him home from the vet. And then the other day, after I explained to Michael and Sarah again, that he is dead and won't wake up, Michael said, "Well, maybe Jesus can bring him back to life when he comes back to earth." It was so sweet. I started crying immediately. Luckily we were in the car and the kids didn't see. I don't like to cry a lot in front of them because then they get upset as well. It is just so strange not having him around anymore. It's as if the whole world went through some bizarre change and we are in another reality or something. It's hard to explain, but I guess anyone who has ever lost anybody knows exactly what I am talking about.
Anyway, keep checking back for a birth announcement. And please pray for us. Be specific. :-) We are praying for a before due date(next week would be nice), safe, quick home delivery, and a healthy baby, and a healthy mom.
I hope this update find everyone well and safe. Take care and God bless.
Love,
Dawn
P.S. We are all praying for the quick recover of my cousin's oldest son, who is in the hospital with a ruptured appendix. We hope you get better soon, Brian.

You're almost there Dawn! I know those last few months are hard, I hope you're starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel though...any names picked out yet?
Love you!
