Well, it has begun! My first experience with swollen feet and ankles! GAH! I spent all day in the sun by the pool in Lava, and at the end of the day I put on my "Crocs" (these comfy, rubbery shoes) and I noticed they were really tight and uncomfortable (which is not normal). I looked down at my feet and was like, "oh my goodness they are huge"! My poor feet were so swollen, I should've taken a picture of them. Even my toes looked like vienna sausages! Sick! When I walk it hurts b/c the skin is so tight. I've also been struggling with some serious foot pain, like the bones are separating and spreading out (which after doing some research on it, this is probably really happening to my feet). I can't be on them for more than an hour without needing to sit down to give them some relief! So I think I will be buying myself a pair of Chaco's--pictured above--(awesome sandals that are very pricey, but offer good support for your arches, etc.). The only thing I'm worried about is that it's very likely my feet will grow at least a half size bigger, so I don't want to buy these shoes, only to not be able to wear them ever again. They cost too much for that! Ah, the fun side effects of bringing a child to this earth! :)
Oh the brighter side, it's been SO COOL to feel little baby jones moving around all the time now. I haven't seen a foot poking out of my stomach yet, but I sure can feel him wiggle and poke around in there. I like knowing he's moving and that's he's alive and well. It really is a cool feeling!
