36 weeks and counting

Today I am 36 weeks pregnant. Had my weekly checkup and all is well. Baby is head down and getting ready to make his entrance into this world (hopefully sooner than later). The due date is still about 4 weeks from now but I can't imagine getting any bigger. I'm measuring 38.5 weeks and was told the baby is not small. I lost a pound which is interesting, guessing it is from not being as swollen this week. I'm hitting the very uncomfortable phase of pregnancy, where just about everything hurts and anything I do wipes me out to total exhaustion. It is going to be a long month I think.

Baby Rollie

My sister and Neil got a new family member last weekend. He is an 8 week old all white baby boy boxer named Rollie. Lola finally became a big sister....she is very proud and excited for her new baby brother. I can't wait to meet the little guy. He is quite the looker.

33 weeks

Time for a little post, since I am so bad at posting these days. I'm blaming it on the third trimester, where the wonderful land of pregnancy makes you want to sleep, eat and sleep. Oh and there is definitely a little crankiness in between.

We took my measurements last night. Tim claims my belly is now 42" around the belly button but I'm sticking closer to 41.5".

Baby is quite active, he thinks it is fun to roll around and elbow his mama while she is trying to rest. His movements have gotten very strong and makes me yell out once inwhile. It has become very entertaining to watch my belly move.

Tim is back to studying like a maniac for his level II CFA exam June 6th, a lot going on in our household these days. The nursery is pretty much finished, I'll have to post some pictures later. Hopefully baby boy Vedder likes blue and brown animals. +or- 7 weeks until we meet you!!!
