Yesterday was the first time someone asked if I am ready to pop. No, still 10 more weeks. It seems like the weeks have been ticking by quickly, but now it's starting to slow down. Of course I want to savor my last few weeks of freedom, but I'm also wondering how I can get any bigger or more uncomfortable. I've outgrown my maternity clothes, but on the plus side, I feel him moving around so much. Pumpkin likes to lay her head on my stomach and feel him move too.
We've finished painting the baby's room and just need the chair rail. It feels good to see us making some kind of progress. I've been dreaming a lot about childbirth lately, but mostly I'm asleep during it in my dreams. If only it were that easy.
Two weeks ago my sister and Jill threw a baby shower for me. I had a great time seeing so many friends and family. Everything at the shower was so cute: from the bike invitations to the yummy food to the cookies & milk dessert. Robin and Jill really did a great job!
Of course I wanted to look my best, so I went in for a haircut before the shower. I went somewhere new (a big no-no) and she took way too long and my hair turned out horrible. I had zero time to fix it since I was running late for my shower, so it is what it is. And really, I don't care that much. It will grow out. The funny thing is that even Skyler couldn't pretend to like it. When we got home he said, please don't cut it like that anymore. I'm happy he can be honest with me.
Hard to imagine that with all of the time we've spent together over the past 6 years that Jill and I have very few pictures of us together. It's her turn to look cute and skinny.
People used to think we were twins. I don't see it, especially with a bad haircut and funny facial expression.
Jenn and I are only weeks apart, but our bumps are pretty much the same size. Happy I have someone to relate to right now.
Skyler came at the end of the shower so he could see his family and help me out. He's such an awesome husband.
The Salas girls. We're cute....be jealous.

Glad you had fun Elise. It was a lot of fun to do! Really I am getting really excited for him to come! And about people asking, no worries you're closer to birth than I was when people asked if I was about ready to give birth with Rose. At the gym the asked EVERYDAY and i was 5 mths. I had to keep saying nope, just big:)
