We had our 34-week check-up last Tuesday (technically a day early, but who's counting?), but I got side-tracked at work and forgot to update you all until now! No big news, really - she's still measuring right on target, she's still head-down, and I'm still feeling pretty good overall. My only complaint is that I've been sooooo tired again! It's like the fatigue of the first trimester decided to come back and haunt me. Yuck! Too bad I can't nap during the week, because I'm getting sick of waking up 1-2 times per night to visit the bathroom, and sick of getting winded from doing even the most minimal exertions (like walking up the stairs). Then last night I woke up at 4am and couldn't get back to sleep - eventually I just started reading around 6am, then got up with Mike around 8. Yuck! I know this is all just preparation for Baby, but does it really have to start this early?!
In other news, our third niece was born on Wednesday and we got to visit her after work yesterday. She is so cute! It's hard to believe we'll have a little one like that soon. We stopped at Buy Buy Baby to pick up a gift for little niece Annie, and neither Mike nor I could resist picking up a pair of tiny Carhartts for our baby. We're such suckers for cute little baby things, especially when it means that she and Mike can have matching outfits!
Speaking of cute little things, we finalized our cloth diaper stash today. (Thank you to everyone who gave us gift certificates to Peapods!) We should have enough to go full-time cloth as soon as she gets to be about 8 pounds. I'm really excited about this and hope it works as well as I'm envisioning it will!
Our to-do list is rapidly getting whittled away. We're coming down the home stretch!
