More pics!

I took some more pics today and this past week so I thought I would post an update! Nursery is coming along great, only a few more things to do! Below are pics of the change table, curtains I made, cover for the nursing pillow Leah gave us (our bassinette is under it), night table, frames I painted and glued wooden cut outs on, shelves we made and painted.

All is well on my front. Getting big and feeling awkward doing things. Wedding rings are tight so I've taken those off. I am starting to retain fluid and feel like a whale! Other than that, we are sooo anxious for our little one to get here!!! Not much longer now!
Here are a few pics of me taken today (33 weeks 7 days). Excuse the look on my face!






So we are coming along quite well. Prenatal class was a few weeks ago and we had our breastfeeding clinic this past week. Got lots of great information from both. God time is flying by!!
Oh yeah, if you want Wes to send you a note once she arrives, please post what email address you want it sent to if anyone is reading this. I have some listed already in my draft email but some I am not sure of.
Thanks everyone!! Talk soon!

34 weeks

So I missed 33rd week, it is so hard without a computer! Here is my 34th week shot!

So far things are going well. Went for another doc appointment yesterday and all is good. Doc is figuring we have a big little baby inside of me! Wonder if she will come early..Blood pressure was great, I did gain some weight, so am now up to 24 lbs gained, some of that being fluid. Next appointment is in two weeks then it is every week after that! Hard to believe just over 6 weeks left! I have been feeling good, although heartburn is getting the best of me. I have to stay away from salt because Im going to start to retain lots of fluid. Other than that, I cant complain. I think I have the best hubby in the world! He has helped me so much and each night, plays with my hair without me asking!! It is so soothing and relaxing! I love him to pieces!
Tonight is our breastfeeding clinic. Quite anxious for that. We had our prenatal class 2 sundays ago and it was great! Learned lots of great stuff and had a lot of questions answered. I can say we are prepared and ready for her to come any day now!!
I should be on my way for now. Get home and rest then pick Wes up from school.

32 weeks

Since not having a computer at home, I dont get on very much. Here is our 32 week shot! Cannot believe 2 months today is our due date!!

Update...finally..


Well here is a quick update. Nothing all that much new, the holidays were nice and quiet, just the way we wanted them to be! Santa was great to us again, spoiled as usual. Things with me and Avah are going very well! Went to see Dr. Keating on Monday and my blood pressure was great and I didnt gain any weight, so I am still at 15 lbs gained so far. She is quite happy with that. The nursery is coming along well, I started washing all her stuff this week. I am lucky that I held off this long, I was tempted to do it before christmas! Sunday is our prenatal class! It should be interesting! I am loving being off work, I feel much better these days and am getting a chance to rest some. My nights are still hard with not much sleep. Pee breaks are about 1.5 hours apart so that doesnt leave much room for some good sleep! Oh well, it will all be worth it once she arrives.
Here are a couple of pics taken in the past bit.
