34 weeks

34 weeks

This week I am finally feeling better after an upper respiratory infection and a horrible sinus infection. It's so nice to be able to breathe and not be coughing all day long! As far as pregnancy related symptoms I'm feeling great! I've been blessed with 3 healthy pregnancies and that's something I try not to take for granted! I am feeling big of course and can't believe I still have 6ish weeks to grow.

Nesting is in full effect around here. Baby clothes are washed and folded, the crib is put together (thanks Dad!), and the car seat is here and ready for Brock! We also got baby toys, playmat, swing, etc out of the attic and are prepping the house for baby.

I went to the OB this week and was proud to tell my doctor that I finally picked out a hospital! We are pleased with the choice and think it's going to be a great place to bring Brock into the world. My OB wanted to check Brock's growth this week and I was surprised to get an ultrasound at my appointment. I've never had one so late into a pregnancy and I loved getting to see chubby baby cheeks, and since it was 4D I could see him sticking out his tongue, swallowing, and moving all in 3D action. So cool! Here are a few of the images we got-we think he looks like Doak! Brock's growth is fine and he is estimated to currently weigh 4lbs 8oz. They don't expect him to be a huge baby so I'm interested to see how big he will be! The ultrasound showed everything to be great. I'm so glad I got to peek and see that sweet boy this week!

I'm so ready for Carter to be born. I'm just ready and excited to be a new mommy all over again and get to know this little guy.

Praying for you in these last few weeks!!

Ummm yeah.. you look AWESOME! I think I'm almost as big as you and I'm only 17 weeks! ha!
Don't you love 4d?! What a precious little boy :)
OH and I just found a shirt I need to send to you that had been left behind. And orange plaid button up!

Ha! I think we're planning on Saltgrass!
I do believe I'll order exactly what you did. I'm not so sure I can wait a whole week. Too bad you can't order a steak at a drivethrough :)
I was thinking the other day... doesn't bootcamp seem like a million years ago????
