32 weeks

32 weeks and still moving strong! Baby BOG is still as active today as he/she was a few weeks ago... those jabs are just a little stronger... but I am enjoying each and everyone of them!

It sure has been a busy last couple of weeks... Baby BOG had his/her special day, the baby shower! He/She got a ton of wonderful gifts that will definitely be used! Mom-to-be was definitely excited about putting all the items away in the baby's room! I will have to post a completed room photo soon!

Baby BOG's row of aunts, outside of the family!

With Frank's mom, grandmom and cousin and my aunt in town, I took the opportunity to have a family cookout at our house that same weekend. We even celebrated Frank's birthday... sorry no photo of the wonderful cake... it was an angry bird! Frank play's it all the time! It was a great... and long... day!

Frank and I also recived giftcards and cash for Baby BOG, so we took the opportunity to go ahead and get the items we knew we would need for the Baby. THAT WAS FUN TOO... I LOVE TO SHOP!! I spent the following weekend washing all the baby clothes, blankets, burb cloths, bibs, etc. and hanging them or placing them in the drawers. Needless to say... my energy is starting to decrease daily. I have been going non-stop on the weekends... going to support my best friend (Missy) at her half-marathon to coming home and clenaning and prepping for Baby BOG and a little shopping!

I don't know how this weekend is going to be... busy or relaxing? But I am definitely looking forward to next week... a short work week and long holiday weekend with family, friends (hopefully!), food and relaxation!

The Final Weeks...

Well... if you are counting the weeks with Frank, me and Baby BOG... you know that today is the 30-week mark. YEAH!! ONLY 10 MORE TO GO... approximately!



Tomorrow is a doctor's appointment to get the latest news on Baby BOG and mom-to-be's health status. Since my last doctor's visit, I passed the gestational diabetes test but my iron is low so I am now taking a prescription for iron. This is normal for most pregnancies, so everything is still great!

Baby BOG is still active, although they say this could calm down a bit since the baby is going to start running out of room to stretch and kick. However, I don't think this baby is going to calm down that easily... the stretches and kicks are more prominent to the touch and fun to watch all the way across the belly.

I am looking forward to this weekend... it's time to celebrate Baby BOG with a shower! Frank's mom, grandmother and cousin are coming into town for the occasion and I have an Aunt that just so happens to be here as well! I am looking forward to seeing a lot of family and friends (some that I don't get to see on a regular basis) for this blessing of an occasion. Hopefully you will be there!! :-) I am sure there will be plenty of photos to share with you all!
