Top Ten Signs You have Reached the 3rd Trimester

(Okay, I am sorry to do so many in one day-- I seem to go in spurts, whatever!)

1. Your maternity clothes start getting too small.

2. Doing the grocery shopping wears you out for the day.

3. Your back hurts 90% of the time.

4. Ankles, what ankles?

5. The baby, tickling the inside of your tummy no longer tickles- it hurts!

6. Standing up becomes a real chore.

7. Your children start feeling like they have Hitler for a mother.

8. Any piece of clothing remotely tight (including your bra) starts getting really annoying.

9. Crossing your legs is impossible.

10. Walking becomes more like a waddle.

PS I am so totally there!!!

Oh, one more thing. . . rolling over in bed is one of the most difficult things I do all day!

Oh, this is so true!! I remember one night I had to get out of bed for the 10th time to use the bathroom and couldn't even get back in bed!! (I was too fat) LOL I just said "forget it" and slept on the couch :)

Ok, so I love the new title, really cute and creative. And I totally understand about your top ten, I too hated night time because lying in bed and turning in bed was the most uncomfortable thing in the world. I hate not being able to cross my legs, especially at church. And sales, I don't know what it is but I can't really find anything at sales, maybe one or two things. When I do find several things on sale then I'm super excited but most of the time nothing really. And the names I agree with the previous two entries it's your baby and no one else has a say in what you and your husband name it.

Just another comment about your #7"Your children start feeling like they have Hitler for a mother."

When I picked up the girls on Tuesday, Kira pointed to you as you were walking away and said, "That's my favorite mom!" It's that sweet!! She had the biggest smile on her face, so I don't think they feel like they have Hitler as a mom. :)
