Week 35

It’s been a few weeks, and it feels like we’re entering the home stretch. Maria is still doing great, though Nubs is starting to get so big that she really gets in the way sometimes. Doctor visits continue to go smoothly; it even sounds like Nubs is starting to get in the right position to be born. Maria is healthy as well, though perhaps having a little trouble sleeping.

After a couple of weekends shopping, we think we have everything we need to get through the first twelve hours of parenthood. Beyond that we’ll probably realize that we’re missing a lot of something (my bet is on tiny t-shirts). We’ve also taken a couple of parenting classes which were reassuring and we definitely learned a few things.

Happy holidays, everyone, we’ll be in the final days before we know it!

30 Week Update

It’s been a while since we’ve shared any pictures, so we wanted to put up a couple of shots. We have a couple of new pieces of furniture around the house:

And Maria is looking beautiful:

Wholesome Autumn Fun

We had a great visit with Helen, John, Vera and Fae this weekend. Here are a couple of shots of Maria and the girls.

Week 18

A quick shot of Maria at 18 (almost 19) weeks. We have the 20-week ultrasound scheduled a week from Wednesday, where we will hopefully learn the sex of Nubs and get to check in on limbs and so forth.

Week 16 Belly Shot

This is what I look like now–getting a bit larger, but I can still get away with wearing some non-maternity clothing. Which isn’t to say that I’m not wearing the elastic jeans once and a while for extra comfort (not to mention style).
