37 weeks!



We had our 37 week check up on Tues. (2 days early). Everything still looks good. Our doctor is great, hopefully he will be around when we have this little guy. He shares a practice with 2 other women so if he isn't on call it will be one of them. We have met both of them and they are very nice so it shouldn't matter.
The weather has just turned nice and we just finished our last final a week ago. I'm being a little selfish and hoping that I go to full term so that I can enjoy the weather!
We're going to a Tigers game on Sunday, which should be greatttt!
Here are some pictures of me. I'm getting big!

(sorry if the 2nd picture offends anyone...they're just boobs :) Both are 37 weeks.

36 Week Check up!

We had our 36 week check up today. It went really well, we had an ultrasound and got a chance to see the little guy one last time before he makes his live appearance. Based on the measurements he is about 5 lbs so it looks like we'll probably have a nice healthy 8 lber! We figured this since both Craig and I were about that size. I still don't think I'm ready yet, I just turned in by take home final for my non-profit class and tomorrow I have a final in Finance (which I am procrastinating studying for). Once school is over then I think that I'll be able to prepare myself a little more for his arrival.

Have a great day!

34 Week check up!

I had my 34 week check up on Monday. Everything is going great, the babies head is down which is a good sign. I asked if he could turn at this point and Dr. Brodsky said there is a 1% chance that he could (lets hope that is true). I'm measuring to 33 cms (this number correlates to your weeks), so I think that my prediction that I'll go a week late will probably be true :-).

I go back in 2 weeks for my final ultrasound, it should be pretty cool to see him all smashed up in there...poor guy! After that I'll start going every week, Yikes!

It is getting really close.

Baby Shower! 3/25/2007

My sisters and mom had a great baby shower for me at my house. It was so nice to see everyone. Craig and I got so many great gifts, it really is starting to seem real. I have the baby clothes all washed and the crib ready, now I just need a baby. But he needs to stay cooking for another couple weeks until I finish my finals!

It was amazing how many pregnant friends we have or friends who have just had their children. Here is a picture of the girls who were pregnant at the shower. Since then 2 of them have had beautiful baby girls. Jill had Molly Amanda on March 28th and Gina had Nela Rachelle on April 2nd - I've seen Molly and she is beautiful, I'm going to see Nela on Friday and I'm sure she will be also!

Thanks to everyone who came to the shower and gave us so many wonderful gifts.
