36 Weeks!

Technically full term, but I think the Pumpkin needs to cook just a little longer!  It's still moving around frequently and those feet on my right side can get a little uncomfortable.  Heck, I'm just all uncomfortable.  Still loving being on maternity leave and I'm far from being bored.  I am pretty good at entertaining myself though, always have been.  Hopefully that trait will be passed on!

Here's a few photos I've been meaning to put up.  Just a few weeks behind!

Me at 34 weeks.  Still hot outside making me miserable.

A few shots from the baby shower.  I'm really disappointed I didn't get more pictures of my friends, especially of the ones I don't see that often.

Book themed cupcakes made by Amey and Sophia.  They are pink because it's a raspberry frosting, not because they are gendered!

Jake and I looking through a book that Kim brought.  (Cousin Tracy in the background)

Jen made us a very cute doll!    One of the few handmade gifts we've received, so it's extra special.  


 Some party guests from left to right: Cynthia Mathews (Amey's mom), Deborah, Laura, Andy, Rose and Kim.

And for Halloween Jake and I carved a special gestational themed pumpkin, a babysaurus in a pregnant tummy.  

Me sitting on our old porch steps (where our friends live now) next to the babysaurus pumpkin rex.

I think your doula may be right, Alana. It is hard to picture you being 6 weeks bigger than in your photo above! At any rate, THIS IS THE MONTH! Litlle Pumpkin, minus the stegasaurus spikes, will soon be here, and your whole new adventure will begin. We think of you every day. xxx Pat & Gary
