Crits is staying put- he's enjoying himself!  It is super cold out here, so we are just hunkering down while we all wait for his arrival! Our next appointment is on Monday!

Much love,

39 Weeks

Happy New Year's Eve, everyone! We've had such a wonderful year! Tom and I did a "year in review" last night, and we just could not believe how much has happened this past year.  Feeling so lucky to have wonderful family and friends in our lives. And we are getting close! 39 weeks today, so this could be our last bump shot (or we could get two more)!

I'm wearing this shirt out in a moment - I told Tom to let me know if my shirt rides up. Ha!

This cracks me up - so happy we took all these photos!

38 weeks!

Merry Christmas, everyone!  We have had such a fun week.

First, got this great pic from Lis and Burt!

Tom made a lamb rack.

It came out delicious!

And we are getting close! Not sure who will get closest to our due date.

But getting big! Love my new Christmas pajama pants - thank you, Jeanne and Lee!

Woo! Getting close to the big day- whenever that may be! School is out- so I am just wrapping up projects and laying low! We are having dinner with Kimie tonight!

Ender- ready for Christmas!

Managing to get bigger every week!

Happy holidays!!

36 weeks!

It's been a super exciting week! We had my lab over for dinner (a la Pollo Tropical style) - great success all around. We should have taken a picture! Critter just keeps getting bigger - I started getting sciatica - which makes it hard to walk or stand. I think I am on the mend - fingers crossed!

Look at this amazing birdhouse from Tom's grandmother! It even has our address!

Plus a picture of Ender! It's too pretty to put outside! We are keeping it on display in our dining room.

You wouldn't believe it - I had to stay home because of the sciatica, so I missed my surprise baby shower at work. Boo! How nice is that of my work colleagues? Look at this amazing ducky cake - it even has crystals on the lake to give it a glow!

Woo! Getting closer! BabyCenter says 22 days. Who knows!

Got an awesome soda stream from Lis! Thank you!!!  We are trying all the flavors.

And sheesh! They posted this tragic picture of me on our home page. Poor critter, his first professional appearance, and I look like I'm going to a funeral!

But, Crits will be here soon! We can't wait!!!!!!!!!  Tom requested a save the date face this week!

34 Weeks!

We are getting close! Our baby website is counting down days now instead of weeks! Ack! Tom pulled out my suitcase so I can pack for the hospital. 

Frances and Kelly came to visit for Thanksgiving! Had a great time, and we cooked our own turkey. Frances made an amazing gravy. We also watched Mockingjay, and Kelly showed us a new game called Saboteur. Highly recommend!

Otherwise, feeling tired but have no real complaints. Getting some Braxton Hicks contractions pretty regularly now!
