On track

We had the last of our "two week" check-ups today and got to learn a little more about the little guy. He's measure a little big - about 2 weeks ahead. Hopefully that means that he got caught up on his growing. When we had the first sonograms, some of his body was ahead while other parts were behind. His legs for example were pretty short - then again, what can be expected from Marvin & me. :)

The doctor wasn't concerned. She said everything was looking good and progressing well. Nothing out of the ordinary for a first time pregnancy. I am really looking forward to meeting this little guy. He's been so well behaved so far - hopefully that means a we'll have a good child. I can kid myself right. The only thing is he isn't listening real well...I said that I wanted him to be 6-7 pounds. Sounds like he'll be at least 8. We have the sonogram next week, so we'll get to know more....

The worst is over...and the best is yet to come

I know I've been absent for a while, but I have been totally consumed with work. We just had a very successful tradeshow and as soon as I wrap up one little event this week, I should be home free. Not to say there isn't plenty of work to do, but hopefully I can take on a more supportive role.

I was in church to day and realized I am about 34 days away - plus or minus I guess. I have a few friends who are also expecting and so far, everyone has gone early - some as early as 3 weeks! That has had me a little concerned. I've been trying to get my bag packed and ready to go so that if he does decide he can't wait a little while longer, at least I don't have to trust Marvin to pack my bag. :)

Right now all I am missing is the make-up and hair dryer....I just hope I have the time and sense to not forget those all important items!

We're getting things ready here - the baby's room is about done, but we have a couple rooms in the house that still need some work. Fingers crossed we can get everything done with some time to spare. Or at least get things cleaned up for the shower that is in a couple weeks!!
