It's not a tumor, but it certainly looks like one...

36 week pictures from last night with our new camera....I have definitely gotten bigger, although the scale is still around the same number as two weeks ago. You can also tell from the pictures that I have "dropped", meaning the baby has descended lower into the pelvic region.




I had a doctor's appointment yesterday. Started weekly appointments last week. He says baby is measuring right on target. It was also my first internal exam, and he confirmed that head is down, but I didn't believe him, so he brought us to the ultrasound room and proved me wrong! Baby's head is definitely down. I think he could have seen the sex yesterday, but he told us that he wants to be surprised too! I am not dilated yet, but my cervix is thinning, as it should be at this time. As Chris and I were leaving the office, we both started laughing. We can't believe that we are now only 4 weeks away from being parents!


These are pictures from our new camera that I redeemed with AmEx points. What a deal...so, we are trying to learn how to use it before the all important moment in the labor and delivery room.


Here's just a picture of my belly, looks very large and RED!

Good luck to my friend Melissa who had to be induced last night (19 days early) due to mild pre-eclampsia. As of a few minutes ago, she was dilated to 2 cm. Her baby boy will be joining the real world sometime today!
We purchased new shades for the office, spare room and baby's room. They should arrive today, so the baby's room will be finished and not so bright!

so cute! I can't wait to hear the news. Glad the baby is head down. That's a relief! Happy 4th!
