hello and merry christmas!
i wanted to give you all a brief photo update of what i have been up to from 30 weeks to 37! weeks…
-
- cleaned out closets, squint helped
-
- my mom came to visit and we put together our crib – LOVE this crib!
-
- trouble and squint made sure that the crib mattress box was empty!
-
- trouble took a break from baby prep and hunted lady bugs
-
- took several thousand moments to marvel in our good fortune
-
- celebrated thanksgiving with mother-in-law who brought her FABULOUS tender turkey
-
- grandpa (my dad) built us a cradle!
-
- photo at about 37 weeks – baby measuring 7lbs 5oz!
-
- celebrated christmas – no tree due to destroyer kitties
time is chugging along. i remain fairly nauseous most days (oh well!) but am getting through it. i have slightly elevated fluid levels (and elevated maternal age) so i go every week for a sonogram and to see my OB. all my vitals are good and the baby moves a lot and is doing her practice breathing so i am all thumbs up from my docs.
i had a wonderful visit with the babypants gals and their little one last week and this week got to visit with olive from insert metaphor… i don’t think there are nicer people on the planet. was SO great to spend time with them all. made me inspired to reach out and say hello to everyone – hello!! i HAVE been reading even though i have not been writing.
we are having a baby shower on jan 10th – i am due on the 16th! we’ll see how that plays out… i am excited to see friends and share our excitement with them… i have REALLY been quite housebound and it is making me kind of bonkers. my folks are coming out from the west coast for a couple weeks (or more if baby comes late). they will arrive on the 15th and are staying a few blocks away. we found them a house swap so visiting won’t cost an arm and a leg – so great!
much love to you all…

Merry Christmas, and you have been busy! That is a beautiful cradle and you look wonderful. I hope all continues well and that your baby arrives safely and soon!
You are getting so close and I’m glad to see an update from you before baby’s arrival.

Love the photo update! I can’t believe how close you are!
Good luck! And Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Glad you posted an update. Good luck and best wished to you and your growing family.
Your little one might be born on my Simone’s b-day! Your preggo pics are lovely. I wish we had seen you when we were in your neck of the woods a couple of months ago. I’m sure we’ll be back soon with S. I’d love for the kiddos to meet up and to finally meet you in person!
I adore your crib and cradle. Both so beautiful!
Just thinking of you guys. Hope by now you have a beautiful new babe in your arms.
