35 weeks...


Here we are at 35 weeks - excited and uncomfortable. :) At this point, we have about 5 weeks left until little Miss Makaeda arrives and we could not in more anticipation than we are (well I'm sure that will change as the final weeks wear on). We completed our 4-week Childbirth Preparation class this past Thursday and were actually sad. The other couples were so nice, we learned a great deal and I think it calmed both our nerves just a bit - if anything because of the laughs we had during each class. We've collected just about every item we need for the nursery - still waiting on the crib. We went to pick it up from UPS this past Friday night but it was far too large to put in the car so we've asked them to try and redeliver this week. Other than that, we'll just need to go pick up the crib mattress and our glider/ottoman. Once everything is situated, I'll share actual pictures of the entire nursery.

Our second baby shower, held at Kerrie's house, was so much fun and I think I probably ate way too much but what can ya do? We have been so grateful for all that our friends and family have done and continue to do. As you can see in the slideshow - Nana Fuller sent us a big box of goodies a couple of weekends ago. This child is going to be SO spoiled!

I have a doctor's appointment pretty much every two weeks now so we will let you know if there are any IMPORTANT updates at any of those. As for the rest of this Super Bowl Sunday - I'll be creating a phone tree for the "day of" and will be finishing our Hospital Preadmission paperwork. Wish me luck!

Love to you all and thanks for thinking of us!
