35 Weeks
I'm almost done! I have about 4 more weeks to go and I could not be more ready. I have everything set up at home, in the car, in the diaper bag...I'm set!
Lots of people have been asking me how I feel and I always like to say I feel as good as I possibly can for being 8 months pregnant. I'm certainly not sick or anything, just uncomfortable.
My doctor continues to tell me that everything looks great and it's all right on track. London's heartbeat, size, and position all look wonderful. The only people who've told me that he might come a week early are 2 different ultrasound techs a while ago. I'm aiming for the due date and if he decides to come early that would be a awesome bonus.
I'm definitely walking like a duck now, and my body has never seen 30 extra pounds of weight before so these things are taking some major adjustments. I can't tell you how ready I am to get my normal body back. Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled, and I would do it again for London but I miss wearing my clothes instead of Isaiah's :)
Some new things that have happened between now and my last post...
I had my baby shower back in July which was amazing
These are all the girls from the office that came :) We had a great turn out of all my closest family and friends. I was SO happy to be surrounded by so many people who love Isaiah, myself, and the baby. We were so blessed by all of the gifts we received.
The next day, Isaiah took me on a surprise overnight trip to Chattanooga for our 1 year wedding anniversary.
We started out playing mini golf...
then we went downtown and got sno-cones from the SAME cart I used to go to more than 10 years ago! I was so excited about that...
then we got couples massages (I got a prenatal one that was much needed)
we ate dinner by the river, and got marble slab afterwards :) (I got mango sherbet with fruit, I try not to be a fatty I swear)
We ended the night by exchanging gifts (I got beautiful purple earrings [my favorite color], and Isaiah got a piece of hand crafted artwork of Lambeau field that he could hang in his office). We waited a year to watch our wedding video, which we did...we cried like little girls and then we played card games and I enjoyed a nice roomy king size bed in our hotel!! It was a perfect 1 year anniversary.
Beau continues to love on our sweet boy...
she knows something exciting is coming...
my sister sent us some large hand-me-downs from Missouri and once the swing was set up in the living room, Beau felt it was her duty to guard it
She sat there all night. I wonder if she thinks it's a big shaded tree or something...? She loves to rub her whiskers on the poles.
A couple days ago, Isaiah and I went to the Nike store and bought matching Olympic hoodies. We waited until they went on sale and had to spring on the ones that said London, of course ;)
I've been getting lots of requests to post pictures of my nursery...this is sort-of a panoramic view of the whole thing...keep in mind, I didn't want to paint the walls because we're renting our town-home and I really don't want to paint it back when we move.
There's not a whole lot of color in the room due to the paint issue, but it's super cute and cozy when you walk in and that's all I wanted :)
I'll keep you guys posted on any further doctor's visits!
