Excuses Excuses Excuses

So I officially feel horrible for not giving my blog the attention that I have wanted to. I have been taking pictures, but some of them are so old I have no idea how far along I am. I do plan on getting them up I promise! My camera and computer do not like each other so I have to fight both of them to cooperate to get my pictures downloaded.

Just a brief update on my life the last several weeks (months). We decided about 4 weeks ago to paint the nursery. I thought this would be something that I had Shawn do some of the heavy lifting and leave me to the painting so he could work on the basement. WRONG!!! It has been a month long project and we are still trying to wrap up the odds and ends because my painting project extended into the hallway and the bathroom as well. This house is in major need of paint and attention and It is a big job!

Basically what it all boils down to is that I am nesting majorly bad!!! I feel completely exhausted and I see something that needs to be done and I do it anyway because I can't sit and look at it. I feel bad for poor Shawn. He doesn't say anything about the projects I start that he has to finish he just bites his lip and happily does it. I am so lucky to have a patient husband like that. I think if I were in his shoes I would have choked me a long time ago.

I have a 5 1/2 weeks until my due date. It is here faster than I expected. I think we have been so busy that it has just gone by. The baby is getting really big. I feel every movement and my tummy is rock hard. Everyone keeps telling me that I am carrying her really high which I am. I am so excited to meet her but I know I will miss feeling her move around inside.

Today was my first mother's day. It is really strange to look at myself as a mom, but I am so excited to be! Shawn did an awesome job of making my day special and I enjoyed every second of it and his kind gifts.

We went to the Dr. last Monday for my thirty four week and the baby is doing really good. Her heartrate was 165 bpm and the dr. said everything looked awesome. My next appointment will be next monday. I will officially be in my last month!!!!
