38 weeks!!

I know I said this last time but I am the worst blogger ever. Things are going well. I am so excited to go to the doctor every week and see how much closer I am to mommy hood. I cannot wait! The last appointment was Tuesday the 22nd and my little prince was eight pounds! He is so big and to me that means he is so happy and so healthy. I am glad I am making his time on the inside so comfortable... Even though I wish he would make his debut sooner rather than later. His room is pretty much finished. I attempted to assemble the pack and play today but had to stop midway due to lack of batteries. The major to-dos left are the car seat into the car and finishing my hospital packing. I am having a hard time deciding what he (and I) should wear home from the hospital. I want us both to be comfortable and weather appropriate and that is hard to predict if you know Houston weather. I'm sure both will be game time decisions.

Everything Ben and I do now I think this will be the last time we do this or that before my sweet boy comes. Last time out to dinner, last time to a football or basketball game, etc. I have seen my last movie in the theater (Twilight- Breaking Dawn... Duh.) Everything is a countdown. I had my last day at work- which was really sad actually. I really like my class this year. I had a super rough start to the year without Kara. She was a big part of my Wilson life and it was hard at first. I remember people saying, "you really miss Kara, don't you?" But I kept myself busy and preoccupied with my new role at work and my growing belly. And now it is over! I am super ready for this new part of my life. Ready to be a mom and have a bigger purpose in life. Hopefully next time I write will be spreading the joyful news of the birth of my beautiful, healthy and happy little boy. I love him so much already and can't wait for everyone to meet the angel I have fallen in love with over the past 38 weeks.

34 Weeks!!

I am officially the worst blogger ever. I am trying to learn from Kara and Katie and be consistent, but it is so hard. Especially now since Ben and I got rid of our main computer and now surf the internet exclusively by Ipad. It makes typing stuff like this much more difficult.

So... here I sit at my desk in my classroom. It is my lunchtime and I was thinking about my precious son and decided to write. I am not even sure anyone reads this, but oh well. I cannot believe it has been 34 weeks already. Ben and I were talking last night about how excited we are and how we know this experience is going to be more than we can even anticipate. We have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning to get another ultrasound and talk about timing. I will try and post after that since that is some juicy info.

As my mom would say, I have gotten "pretty big." She says that with love, of course, as I'm sure Ben is being loving with the new nickname he gave me, Teletubby. Nice, huh? I have been able to eat out of control lately. It is pretty unhuman. Especially with Halloween (my favorite holiday) and all the goodies at work-- it is so hard to eat normally. This is my time, I guess, to indulge. In about a month, I will be trying to watch what I eat so I should enjoy this now, right?

My little boy is so active still. He moves around like crazy, hopefully completely aware of how much he is loved. Ben put his crib together last weekend- big success!!!!! It is beautiful. I finished washing all of his clothes- they are so cute and small.

I will post again tomorrow (hopefully) regarding what the doctor has to say!
