Week 36 (edited with pictures)

Yes, I know. No post last week. I'm sorry. I didn't even get a picture taken! The problem is that I don't take the pictures until night time, and then I'm in my pajamas and I don't want to change. And blah blah blah. But I did take a picture this week! I also found a diaper bag. Hooray! I've been looking for one that wasn't pink, or blue, or green. And I found it! Hooray!




I also recently got a Boppy Nursing pillow. Good times. Today I've cleaned our bedroom so that baby Salt has some area to sleep in. Fun. (or not...) I'm trying to get everything ready in case she decides to come early, but motivation lacks most of the time. Nothing else new has really happened. I had a doctors appointment on Wednesday. I am not dialated at all. Boo. I'm going to have start walking a lot and hope that it starts things along!

Now to the picture. I just looked at it and decided I can not possible post it on this blog. It is far to hideous. So I will take another picture and update it later today!


Ok, here is this weeks picture, as suggested by my dad:
Ha Ha!! Get it? It's a beached whale!!! That's pretty much what I look like!
Here's a full body shot so that you can see how huge...er, big my stomach is compared to my body:
Let's just say that I'm ready for this baby to get here!

Week 34

I realize that I keep getting slackier and slackier when it comes to updating my blog on time. Please bear with me! Week 34 was pretty fun. We've been organizing our place a little since we're moving and all, so the packing has begun! Although I hate packing our little girls things away knowing that she won't be able to use it before we move... But it must be done! So I continue to press forward with the packing! I also had my baby shower this week. My visiting teachers threw it for me and it turned out way fun! I really felt loved. And the baby felt loved too, especially since she got new clothes and toys!!! : ) Here are some pictures of the event:

Purple and green for colors? Man, it's like people know me or something! : ) Most of the pictures from the shower turned out kindof blurry/there were some REAL unattractive pictures of me.... so here are pictures that I took of everything : )

Weeks 32 and 33

I have did not post last week. Sorry. So here is our life since then. Last week we had a doctors appointment. I'm starting my every two week appointments now! HOORAY! Anyways, everything looked fine. I was measuring right where I should be and the heartbeat was good. Oh, we ordered our stroller too! We were looking at the reward points that we have from our credit cards and I had enough credit to get $77! The stroller was $99, but they were having a promotion that if you spent $100 using pay pal, they would take $25 off. So we got a stroller and some binkies. Well, then the problem was that they didn't have it available within 50 miles of us, nor did they have any available for shipping. So we checked and they have one in Katy. So we just had Nathan's Mom pick it up for us. Hooray her! So now we own this:
I also finished my changing table basket project:
And here is my 32 weeks shot:
We also bought some cute clothes from Target because they were having a huge sale. The first one is the one I think we're bringing her home in!
I love those snowpeople!!!! How cute!!!

Now for this week. I finished another project that I have been working on. I wanted to make a bow holder, but also someplace that I could put the headbands as well. So I had this idea to make something sortof like a clear plastic shoe holder. I think it turned out pretty cute!
And some cute bows that I made this week: (I know, soooooo crafty!)

And here is a gross picture of me at 33 weeks... The shirt is a little too short, but my pants elastic is basically the same color! : )

And that is all. Until next week...
