Full-term :)

I am now officially full-term, which means 37 weeks. That means that I can now deliver at the birth center, earlier than this and I would have had to go to the hospital. So anytime in the next 5 weeks David will be joining us. If I make it to 42 weeks pregnant I will have to go to the hospital to be induced, I'm really hoping to avoid that (for multiple reasons)! I am guessing that I will be a little bit late, but no one can predict, so the waiting game begins....


Sunday Kelly, Mike, Angela and Jessica threw a baby shower for Robert and I. It was great to see everyone, and I ate entirely to many brownies. I'm still impressed that Robert was able to cut a string to within millimeters of the diameter of my belly.

Thanks MIMs!

On 11/15 Liz threw a party for Shana and I to celebrate our upcoming babies. For those that don't know I joined "Moms in Motion" about a year and a half ago, look at this great group of runners!

This is me at 35 weeks! (sorry it took a bit to post)

Shower

On Sunday Jennifer threw a great baby shower for me! A lot of my coworkers were able to come and brought some yummy food. I tied as winner of the game were we had to say which old wives tales predicted boy or girl. I guess David and I are following them pretty well since I based most of my answers on my experience the last few months. Thanks everyone, we love everything that you got us and I had a great time! (I'll post pictures as soon as I get some!)

Otherwise everything is still going well. The midwife says everything looks good. I don't have an appointment this week, but starting next week I will have one every week. Robert was born at 35 weeks, I was born at 42, so who knows when this little boy will be coming.

November already

It's November! That means next month David will be here! I'm due in 6 weeks, but full term is between 37 and 42 weeks, so we expect to meet him anytime between 3 and 8 weeks from now. I started washing David's clothes yesterday, but still have a lot left to do with blankets and diapers, etc.

For Halloween we went to McCall's Pumpkin Patch with Mike and Kelly, they had a haunted barn and corn maze. We had fun, and I discovered I'm not as jumpy as I had anticipated. I was disappointed that the haunted maze was a lot smaller than the daytime maze, so we will have to go back during the day one of these years.
