Big Belly & Dave's work party

33.5 weeks...big belly!

Dave took a picture of Baxter, and he closed his eyes when it flashed. HAHA!!

All dressed up before Dave's work party...the bartender was not a very good photograher...too far away.

As you can see, my belly has gotten quite a bit bigger! But, the good news is I'm measuring normal again. Baby J might have had a growth spurt in the middle, now evening back out. So hopefully that means no 10 pounder and no c-section! :) But, whatever happens during labor happens. Nothing I have control over so I'm not going to worry about it. I go back to the doctor in two weeks (the 5th), then I start my weekly visits until the end. Crazy that it's getting so close! The baby is considered full term in only 3 weeks (at 37 weeks), so who knows what could happen? But I have a feeling this baby will be close to the due date or maybe even a little late. Not sure why, that's just what I think. We'll see if I'm right. The baby is head down, so that's good too...getting ready for delivery. I can tell he/she is dropping a little bit because I have more pressure on my bladder...those sharp pains do not feel good at all.

We had a very nice weekend...Ethan was over on Friday and I fell asleep at 9:00...right when we put a movie in. I missed the entire thing, but I can't help it these days. I get tired pretty easily. It hits me like a ton of bricks once I lay down...especially on a work day. On Saturday, we went to Wisconsin Dells for Dave's big work kick-off party. They have a very nice event for all of the financial reps and their families every year. They pick a place in WI to go where the kids can have fun and pretty much wine and dine you for a night. It was at the Kalahari resort in the Dells, a big indoor water park for those people who wanted to make a weekend of it. We just made it down for the afternoon and dinner party, but it was still nice to get away for a night. AND Dave got recognized at the event for being in the top five of new employees in the NE Wisconsin/Upper Peninsula Region. I was very proud of him! :) All those long hours do pay off.

That's about all for now, till next time! XOXO, Car
