36 Weeks and Getting Close!


Well, we are now slightly over 36 weeks along, and still feeling great. Although, like I said before some of the typical pregnancy issues are starting to settle with me, such as the swollen ankles - it doesn't seem to be just my ankles though, my feet are also pretty swollen, and my toes look like little sausages. However, I know it is all for a great cause when we get to meet our sweet little girl. I am now going to the doctor for weekly check-ups. Last week I was told that it would be a while because I am still carrying so high. I have to admit that I look forward to the day when she drops because I might be able to catch my breath a little! On Friday when I hit the 36 week mark, I went to get pregnancy pictures again with my friend Tammy- as I have been every month since I was 8 weeks along. I can't believe how big my belly is!! Here is one of my favorite pictures that we took that day. Looks like I am getting close ...
During the Christmas break my mom and Michayla came to visit for 4 days, and we spent most of that time washing baby clothes and bedding and getting the room completely ready- including having the diaper bag ready to go! I couldn't believe how long it took to take off all the tiny little tags and organize the clothing by sizes. I think the closet turned out great! Matt got all the shelves in place for us, and we started to fill them with the cute clothes. Here is a picture of the closet all ready the arrival.
