36 Weeks

We are getting so close to delivery! At the end of this week we will officially be FULL TERM! This week we made a belly cast to celebrate our growing bump! It was really fun and your daddy and I made a mess with the plaster!

Here is your Daddy being silly while he makes the plaster cast of our belly!

Here is the finished product!

Your daddy also installed your new car seat to get ready to take you home from the hospital. It is really starting to hit home now that we have the car seat ready to go in Taco (that is our pet name for Daddy's Toyota Tacoma). 

We keep putting the finishing touches on our Sammy preparations, and this week I washed all of your baby clothes, bedding and toys -- so they are ready for you! Here is your daddy test driving your stroller in the kitchen:

We went to our doctors appointment this week and we were supposed to see if we are dilated, but Dr. Grogan wasn't in the office so we met with a midwife. Your heartbeat is right on track, and your measurements are showing that you are a big healthy boy. This appointment was a little rough on Mommy, I reached down and had a blood rush to my head and fainted ever so briefly! But nothing to worry about -- a little water and I was totally fine. I think I am just getting so excited to meet you, and I got a little anxious! Other than that, sleeping is getting difficult now that we are so BIG, but we have been getting our rest! We also take breaks in your nursery in the afternoon for some reading aloud and nursery songs. It is a really special time for me. 

Check us out!

XXOO, 

Mommy

Cravings this Week: Jello Pudding ... the Oreo flavor is great, and your Daddy and I made our own recipe with carmel syrup and Cheesecake Jello Pudding -- it is fantastic!
