This coming Monday will mark my 37th week and I will be officially full term! Last week, I was feeling lots of cramping, but I wasn't sure if they were contractions. For a couple of days, especially in the afternoon and evenings, I just wanted to lie down 'cuz it was so uncomfortable. I was getting hopeful that maybe I was starting labor. But now I feel perfectly fine (which is a good thing, too I guess), no signs of major contractions.
Here I am at 35 weeks.
And here I am at 36.5 weeks (yes, I am counting the half weeks...hopefully I won't have to count all of the way up to 40...but I'm sure just voicing that wish jinxes me).
My visiting teachers gave me a baby shower last week. I decided to wear the same shirt that I wore at the shower I had for Mason. Unfortunately, I just realized that all of the pictures that I have from both showers, I am sitting down, so you can't really see my stomach that well...but it's still fun to see the two side by side.
Mason's shower
Levi was almost 8 months old at this time, and I remember that I thought it
was so sweet that he wanted me to hold him, and that he fell asleep in my arms! Here I am with my sisters Diana, Katie, and nephew Levi. Cindy was so sad that she couldn't come, and I was sad that she couldn't be there.

Here I am with my mom, and David's mom, still at Mason's shower.
At the shower that I had last week, I wish that I would have posed for at least one picture, I don't know what I was thinking. I did not get one picture of me looking 
at the camera. I thought this picture would be fun to post 'cuz it has Mason, Levi, and I in it...just like in the picture above...just 22 months later!

It was so thoughtful of both Grandmas, and also some people in the ward to think to give Mason a gift as well!
Mason was really excited to see that his little brother got a basketball piggy bank!

Kristalyn you look really good! I can't believe baby #2 is almost here. How fun that Mason participated in the baby shower and that he got celebrated for being a big brother. I was ready for my babies to come at 37 weeks, but I guess thet weren't, especially Kevin.
I am glad you finally posted some of this stuff! you're right, I have been so sad to miss both your baby showers! :( If only we had been in town a week later. I love all the pics, and can't wait for my new nephew!
Why didn't you post the picture I took of your actual stomach? Was the burn too visible? LOL just kiddin. I am sorry I was such a bad picture taker at the shower. I have never been that great at making people pose for pictures. We definitley needed Cindy there for that. I can't wait to meet your new little cutie!
Kristalyn, You look great! Thanks so much for sharing these-I love them! How fun to compare your pictures from both showers too. Oh, I'm so excited for you! It won't be long and you'll be cuddling a new baby!
Yikes! Your sweet little baby could come at any time--I'd better hurry up and get Mason's bed ready for him for when you go to the hospital!!
You look so cute! I completely understand counting the half weeks! Can't believe that you are so close already.
I'm excited to see your little one at the family reunion in July! And I wish Sasha would hurry up and get a cute little baby bump, too.
You look great, Kristalyn! Seriously, just all baby. I'm sure all your baby weight will just melt off. =)
I can't wait to meet new Baby Ford! Have you thought of names yet? And I hope I look as good as you when I'm that far along!
I've been thinking about you a bunch today. Hang in there, sweetie! ;)
ohhh kristalyn. how is it already that time? i love it.
i hope me and mason and this new boy get to be BFF's this summer.
Just wanted to say that you look great! Mason is absolutely adorable too. It will be a lot of fun to see you and your new baby at the reunion. Hope that all goes well with the labor & delivery!
