- The pregnancy is going well. We can't believe we're 3 or 4 weeks away from being PARENTS - kinda scary! We switched to a nurse-midwife in Gettysburg and feel GREAT about the care we're receiving - very natural, very personal.
- We're still hunting for a master's program for Paul in the fall.
- The nursery and upstairs bathroom renovations are almost done, but we've got a lot more work left to do on the rest of the house (and that's pretty overwhelming right now). We got new carpet in our bedroom and nursery last weekend. Once a few more things are completed upstairs we'll be getting the same carpet in the hallway, stairwell and Paul's office.
- Baby stuff is starting to accumulate in our house, thanks to the 2 surprise baby showers we've had. There's another one in Annapolis this weekend, I'm so excited!
This is the latest "belly" picture, just taken tonight. I asked Paul if black was a "slimming" color and he said "Don't try too hard these days!"
Paul and I went down to Texas to visit one of the 3 master's program options. We rented a car for the week and got a Toyota Prius (a HYBRID!). We had so much fun driving it around.
A nursery picture from a few weeks ago. The baseboard molding is actually in place now. We just have to do the window panes and casing in this room then it's READY TO GO!
Me in the almost-finished bathroom a few weeks ago. You can see I was big then, but got even bigger in just a few weeks. In the mirror behind me you can see the FINISHED shower. Again, in here the baseboard molding is in place, we just need the window pane and casing. We're SO CLOSE!
This is what our living room looked like after our first shower. Unfortunately it looked like this for over a week. I had just re-organized, washed and put everything in the nursery when I had our other surprise shower at work, so now our living room looks just about the same once again. Hopefully that nesting instinct will come soon. I could really use some random energy to clean!
Well, that's life for now. Onto pregnancy week 37!
