Back to Work / Robert's Birthday

Well, there is still no sign of this little one wanting to come early, so mom has to go back to work. I'll be 37 weeks on Monday and we go back to the doctor on Thursday. I figure we will set a date for the c-section at this next visit. I am a little excited about going back to work because it has been a little boring sitting around doing nothing. It's like I told Robert, I'll go back until the baby comes and then I will have another six to eight weeks off from work.

Robert's birthday is tomorrow, so we celebrated tonight since we both have to work tomorrow. I made him a chocolate cake with vanilla icing, which is his favorite. I think it would make him the proudest daddy in the world if this baby decided to come on his birthday.

Doctor Visit

We went yesterday for a routine doctor visit and she decided to order a sonogram to see how big this baby was getting. Our baby weighed around 4 pounds, has a head full of hair, and posed for us for the first time. This was the first time our sono lady has been able to get some cute pictures of the baby, so I posted them online. We are both still doing great and look at delivering between 38 and 39 weeks.

Robert and I have been working on the nursery and hope to have it completely finished this weekend. We already have the crib and changing table put together and the border on the wall. I will post some pictures of the nursery when it is complete.

Where has the time gone?

I can't believe that I'm 33 weeks now and our little one will be making his or her arrival soon. At our last doctor's appointment, we received a good report and she said I might be able to hold out until 37 weeks. Robert and I feel so blessed and we have not even met our little one yet. This baby might have some goofy parents, but it will be loved more than words can describe.
