Jared likes to tease for how long it takes me to move around, especially getting out of bed, and has dubbed me the "cargo ship" as I roll or inch over to the edge of the bed and pull myself up and out. But he honestly has been so supportive in making sure I take care of myself and Gavin.
He's the one that tries to make sure we get out for a walk each day - which has been great, especially with the weather being so nice out finally! He's been giving lots of back rubs lately, helps out with meals, dishes, cleaning, etc. and even puts on my socks when I can't figure out how to reach my own foot!
Jared's going to be a great Dad! He loves laying on my belly and talking with Gavin, or putting speakers on my belly and playing him music! We already feel like Gavin is a part of our family and can't wait to be able to hold him and have him in our home!
Other than a temporary home for your baby while you're pregnant, here's a list of some other things I've realized your belly turns into while you're pregnant:
1. The obvious - it works great as a mini table
2. A mouse pad
3. Pillow for your husband - although Jared says it's not as cushy now as it used to be when Gavin took up less room
4. Book stand
5. Arm rest
6. Source of entertainment - playing "guess that body part", or just watching my belly move in weird ways

ha ha, it's unfortunate that you're going to lose you're belly in a couple weeks - all at once you'll lose 5 pieces of furniture and your favorite family game!
It's definitely nice not being pregnant anymore! However, I was really sad last week. I called TJ because I really wanted Coney's frozen custard, but TJ told me "you're not pregnant anymore, I don't have to act when you have cravings..." So sad! :)
You're on the home stretch! Enjoy your last couple weeks (or less).
I hope you keep that furniture hanging around until I get there.
