Oh sweet nectar

This should be on the mama journal page... but as I've already written it here, and am too lazy to move the post over, it will be a general announcement. Besides at this exact moment in time it feels somewhat profound.....Up all night with nightmares (check), officially up and at 'em @ 2:20 a.m. (check), 25 thank you cards written (check), blog updated (check), and at 4:42 a.m. this epiphany: As I sit here with only 3 hours of sleep, I am really wishing that I wasn't banned from coffee.... if ever a girl needed a granita it is today.... THE END!

33 Weeks

There is a link to see these types of things (which I think mostly only new mommies care about)... but I'm forcing it on you this week! I am getting HUGE which is hard to think about until I remember that that means Paxton is growing and almost ready to be here! This week he is approximately the
size of a pineapple (plus that's just funny to picture)!

The OB of course wants Baby P to go full term, but she did mention at my last appointment that 34 weeks was a safety checkpoint... I can't believe that he could be here any time now.

If the pictures aren't putting it into perspective for you, one of my students kindly told me yesterday that I probably wouldn't be able to greet them at the door in the morning anymore. When I asked why? she said it was because my belly was kind of blocking the path..... oh out of the mouths of babes!

Showered with Love

Paxton isn't even here yet and he is already being spoiled by friends and family. The last two weekends we have been showered with gifts and well wishes from friends and family... Ben and I are feeling blessed beyond words! Our house has officially been taken over by baby goodies and I couldn't be happier. Tomorrow marks 33 weeks which means we are getting CLOSE! Counting down the weeks instead of months... praying that we will have everything ready for our little man!!!
 
My shower crew! Love these ladies!!!

 
The above photo is special for Great-Papa and Special-K... these belly photos are not my favorite at the moment : )


Too funny!
