Dave's home!!

Yay!!! Thank you Lord for bringing my honey bear home safely!!




Dave got home very very early Monday morning... around 1am! I found out Sunday night around 6pm... I was first told he was coming home Thursday night and then it kept getting pushed back a day... so naturally I kept procrastinating! I finally made a cake on Saturday (and cleaned on Sunday) to welcome him home...




He liked it :)



I'm so happy to have him home and he doesn't have to go back to work until the 28th!!! Three whole weeks with my baby!!

Baby pool!!

Just so I can have 2 posts in May... lol

Most of you have already filled out my baby pool but just in case you haven't!! here is the website...

School's out for summer!! for me anyway! :)

I can't believe its been 4 weeks again since I've posted anything!! Hopefully I'll post more often now that I'm done with school :)
I started my maternity leave on Friday woohoo!!

As I'm sitting here typing peanut is moving around and pushing his bum into my ribs!! He seemed to be doing a little dance about a minute ago... oh and I've tried to capture his movements on video but he seems to know and as soon as I press record - nothing!

Let's see... I've had 2 appointments with my midwife since my last blog!! One at 32 weeks and one at 34... my blood pressure was good and peanuts heart beat was 140bpm... fundal height was 34 cm at 34 weeks... Jo said that he is a good baby! He's in the perfect position... head down, bum up... and Lord willing he'll stay there until he is ready to meet us! My next appt is June 8th and hopefully Dave will be back by then!!!

I've been feeling really good although the past two nights my tummy has hurt a bit... and my back is killing me!! The girl I get a massage from got married on Saturday and is on her honey moon for the next two weeks!! It is mostly the right side of my back that hurts.. and I think its because most of his weight is on the right side. It is so funny to look at my belly sometimes... he seems to be sticking out on my right side (his shoulder?) and then nothing on the left. I asked my friend Connie (from school) if she wanted to feel my belly b/c its so hard on the right side and soft on the left... she was pretty amazed :) One thing I noticed is that not many people have asked me to touch my belly... Even when I asked Connie if she wanted to feel my belly her response was "ooh can I?" I have always heard of women saying that random people would just come up and touch their belly. I have not had that.. yet?

Anyway, I can't wait until Dave is home... I miss him soooo much and I want to see his reaction when he sees and feels peanut moving around. He's going to be an awesome daddy!!
