shower time


That's me holding a cupcake at my baby shower.

Weeks 32 - 33 have flown by and I have moments of sadness because my pregnancy will soon be over and joy - also because my pregnancy will soon be over.

I had my 34 week appointment today and everything seems to be going really well. Baby is measuring on track, baby's heartbeat is good. All my tests are within the normal range. We have been very blessed with this uneventful pregnancy.

My husband and I are going to tour the birth center of the hospital where we plan to deliver next week. Other than organizing the nursery and washing the pile of baby clothes I've received, nothing is really outstanding on our to-do list.

Sending hope and prayers to everyone on this journey.

32 weeks


I had my 32 appointment today. It went good. The doctor checked the baby's position and verified what I've suspected for the last few weeks - the baby is head down.

I've been feeling lots of hiccups down low and I thought that I could also feel his head grinding into my bladder. Turns out I was right.

We're starting to pull together the nursery. My husband's cousin was very generous and sold us their nursery furniture for a very low price, and my husband's parents gave us a gliding rocker that they had in their basement and rarely used. We plan of putting a fresh coat of paint on the baby's room this weekend. I'm also hoping my husband will but the crib together this Saturday while I'm at my first baby shower.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

Sending love!
