35 weeks

Since we are officially 36 weeks TODAY, I figured I had better add a 35 week post. There are no pictures for 35 weeks because 1.) I forgot! and 2.) we had maternity pictures taken this weekend so that will be our documentation of the belly at 35 weeks! I'll post the link to the pictures soon. We had a very busy week last week and this week is looking to be just as busy. This weekend my mom came up and we spent the whole day organizing Walker's room and getting everything washed and put away. We also packed our hospital bag(s), so we are now ready to go! Jon is taking care of getting the car seat installed this week and I am registering for the epidural this week and other than that we are about ready for Walker. We are so excited that the time is getting so close and just can't wait for him to be here!! At our appointment last week they did an ultrasound to check his position. He is now head down so that means that we can just wait to go into labor instead of scheduling a c-section. We are very thankful that he turned and are hoping he stays that way. We weren't really opposed to a c-section but are just thankful that, at this point, we can still try for a vaginal delivery. Everything else with the ultrasound looked good. We couldn't really see a whole lot since he's pretty squished in there now, but we did see his arms and legs, hands and his boys parts (so he is still a boy!). It was amazing to see how much bigger he had gotten since our last ultrasound...he's quickly running out of room in there. He weighs about 5 lbs 5 oz. as of last Wednesday so he is getting bigger by the week. In just another week he'll be considered full term so the closer we get to that point the better Jon and I feel about him coming. Of course, technically, we still have 4 weeks left and he may very well wait until his due date (or after) to arrive so we shall see. I only have 3 weeks left of school so I am quickly winding things down on that front so I feel much less stressed now! All in all things are going great! I feel great and he keeps moving around all the time so we are very thankful for that! It's so weird for us to think about having a baby soon but we are so excited to finally meet him! Please keep praying for our family!
