So, as of today I have one month and one day until my due date, and I am SO ready to get this child out of my tummy...apparently she is fully developed, now she's just adding fat so she can better regulate her temperature after she's born. The average baby at this stage in life weighs about 5 1/4 lbs, and is over 18 inches long, which is funny, Hayley was like 4lbs 8oz. and was just at 18 inches when she as born, and she was 6-7 weeks early.
She is starting to hurt when she "kicks"...when in reality they aren't kicks, they are just BIG movements. It hasn't been a "kick" in a few weeks...pretend you are in a giant bubble...when you stretch your arms your hand will move from point a to point b in the bubble...now imagine my belly with a foot going from somewhere near my belly button all the way to my far side. Literally, her limb will stick and inch or more out of the roundness of my belly. She has also realized that it's funny to feel mom twitch when she pokes her kidneys. Yeah, that's fun. She played a game with the nurse at my last appointment; at every appointment they measure my belly and check her heartbeat with their little monitor...the "doctor in training" would find her heartbeat, but before the little monitor would register and give her a number, she would move. Yeah, she thinks she's funny...she likes to play little games.
Other than that in Miranda world, nothing is happening, just being fat and tired all the time and currently we're pretty broke, but it'll get a bit better in like a week or 2 because tony did get a dollar raise from Kane (so he wouldn't quit to go to Spartan...longer story) and he's been getting 40 or more per week which also rocks. So Tony's first pay check of the month of August will go towards groceries, thankfully. Our cupboards are looking pretty bare.
Ok, I guess I'm done. Have fun:)

Just watch out, you don't want her popping out like the Mother-Alien!
