36 weeks...and hopefully 3 more to go!

Well, we are 36 weeks!!! At 37 weeks the baby is considered full term and going into labor is just fine. However, Mommy takes her final exam in a little under 3 weeks...so she needs the baby to stay inside. While Mommy is busy studying for her finals, the baby is busy putting on weight and prepping his lungs for life outside the womb. We can't wait to meet you Charlie!!!

Nursery

Kelly's been nesting! I have been busy the past couple days, and have finally finished Charlie's room. All we need now is the little king of the jungle to arrive and take up residence.

Swollen at 35 weeks!

Here we are at 35 weeks. That means 2 short weeks and we are FULL TERM! The biggest development is my swelling which is evident in my face, hands, and feet. The doctor assures us that it is within the normal range....but nothing about swelling feels good or normal. Hopefully Baby comes soon!

Last Baby Shower - Flagstaff

Charlie and I attended our last Baby Shower at Nana Helsel's house this past Saturday. Thanks to everyone for the amazingly generous gifts. I think we just need a baby now!!!

34 weeks

I am 34 weeks, and feeling it! I think the picture says it all. Baby is growing very big these days with no room to roam. Needless to say mommy feels a little STREEEEEEEEEEETCHED thin.

Maternity Pictures

We had our maternity photos taken last weekend by a friend of ours. I am so grateful to have such lovely photos to look back on years from now.

Healthy and Happy

Kelly is 33 weeks this week, March 8th. We see the doctor ever other week now to check growth, position, and how Mom is doing. Both the baby and I are growing right on schedule and are happy and healthy.

B-I-G

Here we are at 33 weeks. The baby weighs as much as 4 large oranges now
(so they tell me). But I am feeling like he weighs more like 6-7 of those large oranges.
