Some Updates...Kind of

So we are officially "full term." Yesterday we were 37 weeks and now I'm basically a ticking time bomb. My belly has continued to grow...thank goodness...and to put it in perspective here is my dad's comment, who I hadn't seen in almost 5 weeks (they are true empty nesters and leave when they can), of when he saw me: "Oh wow!" Thank you dad. The following pictures are within the past month and a half or so and also document the evolution of our nursery:

It's been fun to prepare, but we are now on the home stretch and definitely have a few more things on our list to do! Good luck to us during this busy holiday season too!


In the past month we also celebrated our 3 year anniversary of our first date--cheesy huh? But I loved it. Plus we've been trying to take the advice of others and spend a lot of good quality time together before the baby comes. So we did dinner at Macaroni Grill and went to the Hale Center Theater to see the Scarlet Pimpernel. It was fun to reminisce and reinact our first date and the first three years of being together. Dave made the night very special and I love him for his thoughtfulness.



Well, let's be honest, the next post will probably be with baby...and she might be a year old by then too! Let's hope not, but until then...
