The Finish Line is in Site!!!!

We are 32 weeks today!!! It's hard to believe, but at the same time, we are so excited to meet this little guy we can hardly wait for him to get here. I am feeling pretty good, a little on the tired side, but I am still sleeping well so I can't complain too much:) He's now nearing 4 lbs and is somewhere between 17 and 19 inches long! I can definitely tell he's getting bigger by the jabs up in my ribcage:)

We are seeing the doctor every week now and have an appointment tomorrow. She thinks the pregnancy is progressing nicely and my "numbers and stats" are looking good. Little to no swelling, my blood pressure is still low, my weight gain is right on target! Like I said, overall, I'm feeling really good! As of now, her plan is still to do an amnio on August 23rd and if his lungs are developed, we'll go for it! Fingers crossed this little guy is ready!!

The nursery is pretty much ready. We just got a shelf to put up today that will be the last of the decor for his room. All of his clothes, blankets, bedding are washed and ready for him. I've even got his diaper bag ready to go:) I've been scouring the internet for anyone's advice on "must haves" or necessities I've forgotten for his arrival, but I think we've pretty much got everything covered.

We haven't been too adventuresome lately, sticking pretty close to home. We've been working in the yard, and dare I say it's almost done!! I mean I think we almost have everything planted, mulched, rocked, etc. the way we would like it. I'm so happy with it and Matt has been a tremendous help! Let's just say yard work isn't his favorite past-time, but he's been a trooper, moving this here and that there:)

Hope everyone is enjoying the sun and staying cool!!!

You are looking terrific and I can't wait to get over there and see you. I may be there the 21-23rd of August so that would be really exciting for me if the timing is right.

Take Care

Love
