Is it over yet? As much as I've enjoyed pregnancy I find myself asking this question every time I waddle down the halls at school or struggle to get up from the couch. It doesn't really help that my husband refuses to help me up because he would rather laugh at me as I impersonate an overturned turtle. Other than the discomfort, though, everything is going as well as could be expected. Now, every time I go to the doctor, they talk to me about going into labor, which is still kind of an abstract idea to me. It better get real pretty soon though, because it's going to happen in the next few weeks!
Everything is now judged by before/after the baby. Things like cutting Andy's hair take on a whole new dimension. His hair grows super fast and I cut it about every two weeks, which makes him due for a cut on April 29. But what if I have the baby? I sure won't want to cut it then and he will definitely become a full grown Chia Pet!
Six more days of work and then I may hopefully get to sleep in for a couple days before I'm getting up at all hours of the night. I hope I don't start motherhood in a sleep deficit like I'm running now. Everything else is done (car seats in, bag is packed) so here's hoping Baby Jack gets here soon!
This past weekend was my baby shower and Mom, Patti and the girls did such a wonderful job getting everything ready! The hall looked really cute and the food was great. I think everyone had a good time... I know I did!
Here's some pictures of Jack's room/Andy's office... (I don't know how to put the pictures in a different order, so there's more baby shower later)
Everything was fine at the doctor's last week. I go in another week and then it's every week after that. We're in the home stretch!
We also found out that Jack is going to have a little cousin in November! Congratulations, Tony and Jen!
