yesterday i was 37 weeks, so baby is fully gestated and can come anytime. but don't get your hopes too high, i still have 3 weeks until my due date, so we could have a ways to go here. i was talking the other day to a girl who finally gave birth 18 days after her due date. ummm...sorry but i would die.
just took this pic a minute ago with photobooth. little girl has not dropped yet, but she did switch to the other side after chillin' on my left side this entire time, so things are definitely changing, or happening, or something...
we've got a HUGE storm rolling in this weekend, and i hope it sticks, because i would love baby lavalle to come into this world into a snowy, white tahoe winter wonderland. then she'll just be wired for the white stuff, you know? gotta get her priorities straight.
i have been feeling alright, hanging in there...sleeping is not something i expect to take place anymore. so since i have accepted that sad fact, things have gotten a little easier. but yeah besides having a giant basketball under my shirt and the general awkwardness that causes (with doorways, bending over, sitting, putting on socks and tying shoes), i really do feel great.
now that we're so close, time seems to have come to a halt. we just CANNOT wait to meet this little person. we're very ready to have our lives with this baby start soon. we've been going to the movies a lot and just enjoying this quiet time together.
thanks everyone for all your sweet well-wishes, it means the world to us, we love you!

So glad you posted this because I had a dream about your belly last night! You and Jamie were at the Queech and you were just as pregnant as you actually are. You were all peppy and energetic, so you went on a walk. When you were walking back up to the house, your stomach was sort of jiggling around like it was a beach ball and weighed nothing. Maybe this is Auntie Lisa's subconscious's way of saying it's going to get easier? Who knows!
ReplyDeleteHope the baby enjoyed Les Mis the other night - way to get her some culture while she's still cookin!
J was 16 days late... And he was not jiggling around like a beach ball at that time. Enough said.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the "peppy and energetic" vibes that Lisa mentioned. That will probably happen a few days before delivery.
Got some plunder from Key West for the baby and will get it in the mail on Monday.
Take care...
