34 weeks

AHHHH.....35 days to go!!

I can tell my body is gearing up for this baby to come. I have had some serious contractions this week. They haven't been a coming in a pattern but have lasted several hours. The doctor says the rule of thumb is more than 4 in an hour and give them a call.  I am resting when I can and trying to slow down these last few weeks.

Baby girl is probably about 5lbs at this point. Her kicks and jabs are more like rolls at this point and she is clearly a little cramped! Her fingernails have reached the end of her tiny fingertips and she is getting heavier each week.


More progress on the nursery as we finally have everything on the walls and I LOVE it. Everything is clean and ready for baby. 

We have been so busy with doctor appointments the last few weeks. I am now going weekly and we have Carli's 4 year check up and first dentist appointment too. I know it's best to get all of this taken care of before we have a newborn but phew....it's a lot! 
Carli did a fantastic job at the dentist. Dr. JoJo was great and our girl was so brave. 
She We are so excited about this baby! Carli talks about "sissy" all the time and loves to tell people that she will be here soon. Some of her most recent name suggestions are Bella, Margret, and Sara. 
Baby girl's "take home" outfit has arrived but I can't show anyone b/c her name is on it....secrets are so hard!! 
We have also already been talking about Halloween....sorry kiddo, mommy is a planner!! Since Carli has decided to be Elsa from Frozen...we are thinking of having a little Olaf too! So cute!!
We are looking forward to spending this weekend together as a family and getting a few loose ends tied up so we can celebrate big sister turning 4 years old in 9 days!!
