37 Weeks

Here's the latest and greatest. I'm feeling crabby today and just want this baby to get here! These last 3 weeks are going to be awful.... Let's just hope it's only 3 more weeks.


Baby Shower

Last weekend was my baby shower in the Cities. I shared in the day with my good friend Jen Hoffe - it was also her birthday! We had such a fun time and were very spoiled with such thoughtful gifts.
We played a game where they melted different kinds of chocolate candy bars in diapers and we had to guess what they were. They were warm and squishy - ick!



Then we had lunch and opened gifts - everyone gave a book instead of a card; we got so many nice books. I feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family - this baby is so loved already!

Jen and I with the diaper cakes our moms made for us....

My sister surprised me and flew in from Boston for the weekend - it was the best present of the day! I had no clue she was coming, and I'm so glad she did. It was so wonderful to see her and spend the weekend together.

36 Weeks

Here we are at 36 weeks - I didn't know my skin could stretch as much as it has. Although, knock on wood, no stretch marks yet! I've had a cold for the past week and a half - it really stinks getting sick when you're pregnant - no medicine! Although I did have a doctor's appointment yesterday and he did give me some stuff to take. I think I'm on the mend, but just extremely tired. Good thing I got in now, instead of 4 weeks from now! I'm ready to be done now - hopefully Calvin's prediction of a Halloween baby is correct!
