36 WEEK BABY UPDATE

I went to Dr. Rupe on Tuesday. I was informed the baby is very low and I am 3cm dilated now. It could be anytime when the lil' guy decides to show up. I have entered an extreme exhaustion phase, but have managed to get quite a few things done. Thanks to the help of Gammy, Poppy, and DJ. We received a wonderful present of new carpet upstairs from Gammy and Poppy. It has been life changing! :) It is sooo soft, so beautiful, and so clean! Thank you isn't enough to express our Gratitude. Love you Gammy and Poppy. Also, HUGE thanks to Poppy for painting the baby's room. I was certain I wouldn't have a nursery ready when he got here, but what a relief and dream that I will!!! I didn't have a nursery for Iris b/c we were still living in an apartment. So I was so excited about getting one together this go around. Thanks to Gammy and Poppy for making it possible. Well, that is all I have for now. I can't wait for little man to get here. Hopefully, this week or upon D.J.'s return. He will be in CA for 9 days. I really hope he doesn't arrive in that time span. Eeeek!

Awaiting labor day

Unfortunately, I have spent so much of this pregnancy so super sick that I haven't been able to manage my blog among all of life's other tasks. :( However, it is time to return to the blogging world. We are sooo super excited for our lil' man to get here!!! I am 35 weeks preggo, 1.5 cm dilated, and 50% effaced. I am extremely uncomfortable and find it very difficult to sleep. Oh, and restless leg is Friggin killing me!!! Plus, we are having a very difficult time choosing his name. We will take any name suggestions to add to our list. We are hoping it will come to us when we see him for the first time. My birthday is tomorrow, Sept. 12, and it is a full moon. I wonder if that will have any influence on the pregnancy. And D.J. will be home, too. Yay!!! Time to finish the baby's room, etc. See ya soon!
