Quiet

Things have been pretty calm and quiet that last week - which is the way I want it to be - I am feeling pretty good - I cannot really complain - my only real issue is sleep - I do not sleep really well - but I mind as well get use to that.  I have gained 20 pounds so far - which is pretty standard - I think - I am up to 148 pounds.  I am thinking I will probably gain about 10 more - we will see.

I have my first non-stress test this afternoon - and tomorrow I have to take my glucose test - which I am not looking forward to at all.  Thursday night is our breastfeeding class - I cannot believe I will be 29 weeks on Thursday - time is flying.  I cannot wait to meet my little man.

We had our 3D ultrasound on Saturday - it was so wonderful - and so detailed - Colin looks just like John - he has every single facial feature of John's - I do not see me in him at all - but I am sure that could and probably will change.

The nursery is almost done - John worked really hard on it this weekend - it is turning out really nice - I will post pictures when it is all done.  We also picked up Colin's mattress on Sat. as well - it was last thing we needed (for now) for him.  I still have to wash all of his clothes and sheets, etc.  But things are slowly but surely getting done.

Two of my friends Jenn and Dana are giving their son's old clothing - which is so great - because we did not get alot of clothes at the shower - so now I do not need to worry about going out and buying of ton of stuff for him.

I have gone part time at work - it is just too much with all the appointment working full time - my boss was not too happy about it - but it is working out great for me - I get to nap in the afternoons and do what needs to get done.

I am just very very happy - I hope the rest of these 11 plus weeks go smoothly and we have a healthy delivery and healthy baby - other than that - that is all I can ask for.

Glad to hear things are going well, and that the nursery is nearly complete! Don't worry about Colin not looking like you on the 3d U/S- the 3d ultrasound we had done of Baby C was not accurate at all. It looked like he had super chubby cheeks and instead he came out so scrawny! He too looks JUST like his daddy except with my hands and feet, lol. And lots of my facial expressions. It's so amazing to have a bit of you and your DH embodied in a little person who loves you and who you love beyond measure. I'm so excited for you! I hope someday we'll get another BFP and be able to experience that again...
