3 days in a row

I have now blogged three days in a row. If that doesn't tell you what an eventful weekend we have had then I don't know what will.

Check out Lindsay's blog for a special post. While you're there, visit the Featured Weddings section to view more photos from our wedding. I would highly recommend Lindsay to anyone in need of a photographer. She's a blast to work with, her photos are fabulous, and her prices are very reasonable.

One year ago today...

And what a year it has been! One year down, the rest of our lives to go; the best is yet to come.

30 Weeks

Not much is new with the baby this week, just continuing to fill out. Her lanugo should be starting to disappear. She is now in the head down position, as confirmed at my Dr. Appointment yesterday.

We've had a pretty eventful week/weekend. On Thursday our appliances were delivered and we had our first childbirth class and our hospital tour. I've got to say, I was pretty impressed. Clint didn't see all the fuss, "it's just a hospital." We started moving in furniture yesterday, and spent our first night here last night. Clint plans to have everything moved over tomorrow.

The countdown:
3 weeks until my shower
7 weeks until I am considered full term
10 weeks until my due date

29 Weeks

At this point Isabella should be weighing around 3 pounds and measuring about 17 inches in length. Her brain is growing and becoming more powerful. Her eyes can now move in their sockets and are sensitive enough to tell the difference between natural and artificial light from within the womb.

Not much is new otherwise. We're still working away to get the house ready for move-in, well Clint mostly since I can't really do any painting. I have mostly been packing and unpacking. I feel kind of useless, but hey it has to be done, right?

The countdown:
4 weeks until my shower
8 weeks until I am considered full term
11 weeks until my due date

28 Weeks

Isabella should now be weighing in around 2 1/2 pounds and could be measuring about 16 inches long! Her main development now is simply to grow bigger. I think she's been going through a little growth spurt this week. No matter how much I eat, I can't get full!

By any standards, I am officially in the third trimester! It is very exciting, but a little nerve wracking at the same time. There is still so much to do. At least now that we've closed we can start working on the nursery. In fact, I believe Clint is going to be priming her closet so I can hang up her clothes! Sure, they still need to be washed, but I am really anxious to start getting her things organized. And yes, we do have to paint her closet. I normally wouldn't care, but the previous owner made a pathetic attempt at some decorative painting. We're pretty sure they were going for a cloud look, but it just looks sad. Actually, her room is by far the ugliest room in the house right now.

The countdown:
5 weeks until my shower
9 weeks until I am considered full term
12 weeks until my due date

Home Sweet Home

so true
