36 Week Check Up

I just had my 36 week check up. Everything seems to be fine. The baby is head down and ready! Even though he is not showing any signs of coming. The doctor estimated him to weight about 7lbs, hopefully he doesnt get to much bigger. Now it is just a matter of waiting. We have the bags ready for the hospital and I am ready. It is getting harder to sleep and to do things. I am also a little uncomfortable, so bring on labour!

Packing our bags!!!!!

Well it is now time for us to start packing our bags! I have got nearly everything I think I need. Even though we are not sure what you need. I bought the last few things yesterday, so now I have to choose the outfits I want for the baby and then put it all in a bag. On saturday we go to an all day class at the hospital about child birth! Hopefully it will be very useful and let us know what to kind of expect! We have 6 weeks to go!

This is the coolest buggy ever! It does all kinds of things. My parents got these for us. I cant wait to take him out for a walk in it!

His room is really coming together now. When we started to unpack all the things we got reality set in and we had no idea how to organise a baby room! So we have tried our best. We still need a few things but its becoming more and more real.

We had a very nice day. The hostesses did a wonderful job with the food and decorating. We were spoiled with the amounts of gifts we recieved, people were very generous. My dad and brother were able to make it and my mum watched over the web cam! I just want to say a big thank you to all who came and hosted, it was fantastic. Now the fun part begins, finding a place for all of it!

30 weeks

Getting a little bigger! Its getting harder to do things like get up and down, bending down and sleeping. I now sleep with 6 pillows which AAron is not a big fan of them all. The sickness is back which is not fun. I am looking forward to June now.

Tuesday Night

In the back garden

and again
compared to AArons foot
compared to a quarter (like a 50p)

Well last night as we were trying to sleep we started to hear noise that sounded like someone throwing stones at the house. I made AAron get up to go and look and then the sky opened and we got pounded by quarter size hail - it was a little bigger then quarter size. It lasted for about 5 minutes but I really thought they were going to come through the window. Not that fun!!! As I was watching the weather on TV my husband was outside with the video camera and camera and he thought it was pretty cool! Hopefully no major damage was done to the house. And we have more storms heading here today, so round 2 will begin soon.
