31 Weeks Ultrasound Pics

It's been so long since our last ultrasound, Mark and I were so glad to have one today!  My doctor thought that the baby might be weighing a little under so she wanted to have it more accurately checked.  Turns out that the baby is actually on the larger size!!  He is weighing in at approximately 4 lbs 7 oz and technically the measurements put me at 33 weeks 6 days...that means we might have one big baby!!  Or maybe that means i'll go a couple weeks early and have an average size baby :-)  Only time will tell!!  He is very active these days doing aerobics in my belly, we can't wait to meet him!!  The new ultrasound pics are amazing, he is looking so human and real these days!

30 Weeks!! - Friday 5/6/11

I can't believe we are only 10 weeks away at this point!!  Every week goes by so much faster than the last!  If Mark and I didn't have enough going on, we are moving in 2 and half weeks (Memorial Day weekend) to our new place in Dracut.  I'm trying to do as much packing as I possibly can while i'm still capable of doing so.  Mom came over today to help me out and we got the majority of our stuff packed so i'm not feeling stressed about the move anymore, just anxious and excited!  We can not wait to set up the nursery in our new place.  I do already have the hospital bag packed because I feel like that would be one thing I forget to do and before we know it the day will be here!  Yesterday, I celebrated my first mother's day as a mom-to-be and received many "Happy Mother's Day" from friends and family and of course my wonderful husband.  He got me an adorable boy baby bootie to add to my pandora bracelet and a card that brought tears to my eyes, he's going to be such a perfect Daddy!  Anyways, other than all that going on i'm feeling decent for the most part.  I have been starting to get a lot of sciatic pain down the right side of my back some days it's bearable and some days it's beyond painful!!  Other than that just losing my energy a little easier and "easy" tasks are getting a little harder.  It all comes with the territory and I know it's all worth it in the end!!
