today was the first time i've been to church in 2 1/2 months. i've missed it a lot. baby seemed to like it because he was kicking around the whole time. he was dancin' in my belly during the songs and throughout the service. it was very nice seeing everyone and hearing how they've been praying for us and baby bennett. it's good to be back! :) after church we ate lunch with our friends and had a good time talking, laughing and eating. i felt normal again. but i was still worried if i was doing too much.
when we got home i noticed a little bit of spotting so i am a bit concerned that my cervix is dilating more. could i be at 4cm now? i hope not. i've also had some contractions today. they haven't been consistant or strong so i'm hoping they'll just go away. either that or i'm hoping that this is the real thing. i'd love to be able to get to the 36 week point but i have a feeling that's not going to happen. so we'll just have to wait and see. i'm just so thankful to now be at 34 1/2 weeks. if baby wants to come now then i'm ok with that. um, yeah, i think i'm ok with that.

Sounds like you've had a great weekend! I'm so happy that you're able to enjoy your pregnancy a bit more now. Love ya, Brix
isnt it weird how many milestones we set for ourselves? We pray and pray to get to x number of weeks and then YOU DID IT! But again- something happens and we always want 'just 1 or 2 more weeks'- it is SO HARD to finally be comfortable with where we are in our pregnancies- even though we both know baby is perfectly fine and healthy. I am so thrilled you had another normal day with church and a fun lunch! Baby Bennett had a ton of fun I'm sure since he was dancing and wiggling around :) Sorry about the spotting and contractions though- another 'normal' thing at this point but still you cant help but to be like WTF????? Dont need to remind you how far you've come though because you know- just still praying for more time or if the time comes, a smooth and safe welcome for Baby Bennett into this world! And I am no doctor- obviously- but when you do more activity than you're used to, it can bring on contractions and fun stuff so maybe maybe it was your body's way of saying "WOWWWWWWWW I can move again!" Fingers always crossed for you guys :)
