Things I miss? I've had a cold/allergies the past two weeks. As if it wasn't already hard enough to breathe.

Looking forward to? Going into labor!! So over being pregnant. Get this baby out!!! 

Brian goes to a training boot camp next week. I doubt anything will happen, but it makes me so nervous for him to be all the way in Dallas while I'm this far along.
