32 Weeks and Getting There!

Well I am now officially 32 weeks old! Amazing huh? Mom and Dad continue to work hard on preparing things for me. Well let's be honest, Dad is doing most of the hard work! Mom was at a conference most of the week last week, so Dad capitalized on her absence by nearly completing the painting in my room. Mom came home to quite a surprise, all but one color, DONE! She was certain that she would need to be there to push him along, but he did well!



On Sunday morning, Mom got up to begin breakfast when she noticed that the final stripe had been painted during the night. Now understand, since Mom goes to bed quite a bit earlier than Dad, anything could happen! She doesn't hear anything, she sleeps so well right now. She was thrilled! When Dad awoke, Mom and Dad worked as a team to peel the tape off and see what the final product looked like. We all loved it! It is finally coming to the end. Mom and Dad are having the carpet cleaned this week, and then my furniture will be moved in once we return from Ohio.



Mom attended a baby shower for a friend of hers on Sunday and it is always so great to know someone going through the same thing at the same time. It was fun and her friend is due next month. The theme was duckies and the host had made the CUTEST cookies!



Today, Monday was our 32 week appointment. The doctor assured us that all is well. He did a full exam and said that I am progressing just fine. My size is continuing to grow and I am right on track. He also had a talk with Mom about beginning to prepare for the date when I arrive. Since we only have 8 more weeks, he warned us about travel and making sure that Dad is in town from here on out. The doctor also reminded Mom about drinking plenty of water, after Dad told him about the 2 leg cramps she has had in the middle of the night. Amazing how time flies. Mom continues to feel pretty good but how she is expanding. She is probably really going to surprise people when we all go to Ohio for our shower this weekend.
