39 Weeks

We have decided on a name. Her name is Alexis Noelle. We are waiting for her arrival, any day now.

38 1/2 weeks

Things are coming together for the nursery. We have the window treatments complete, thanks to my mom, and a table next to the chair. It all looks beautiful.

I'm still working. As long as I'm feeling good, I plan on working up to when I go into labor.

Tomorrow I go back to the dr again to see how far along I am.

Keep watching the blog... her name will be decided this week.

36 Weeks

At what point did it change from telling people how many weeks along I am, to how many months I am, to how many weeks I have left?!? The time has flown by. I have really enjoyed being pregnant. I love feeling her move inside me, and playing with her, and feeling her respond. I have been feeling really good. No cravings or strong dislikes. I'm tired and feel sore from my body stretching.
Last week we attended a newborn care class at the hospital. The more we learn, the more ready I think we're feeling. We had 2 great baby showers, one at my parents house, and the other at work. Everyone was very generous, and we feel much more prepared.

We are still working on picking her name. We will hopefully make that decision in the next week or so. She should weigh about 6 pounds now and be about 18.5 inches long. I am still in disbelief that this time next month, we will have a baby!

The chair in the picture is a recliner that my mom covered with fabric and she made the flower in the corner and the pink pillow. She is SO creative! She's also making 2 more flowers to match that will go around the window to hold the curtain. The room is coming together! Jason is hard at work on the crib. He thinks he'll have it together by the time she is born, but maybe not finished by then. That's okay since she'll be sleeping in the bassinet by our bed for awhile anyway. He's putting a lot of time into it, but it will be worth it when he's done and he can be so proud of what he's made and what an heirloom it will be.
