38 weeks

Yup, today's 38 weeks!  How fast this time has flown by.  Nothing really new to report, except that everything pregnancy-related is going well.  Weight and blood pressure on track, baby growing (not going to be too big - thank God!), but still a little "cockeyed" inside.  The doctor wants it to rearrange itself a little better before coming out, so let's cross our fingers that it settles into the right place as it drops!  My appointment on Monday was in strobe lights... I had to take a sick little boy with me since he wasn't at the babysitter, and of course he found the light switches in the exam room.  My dr. told me I'm going to have my hands full with a newborn and smart 2 1/2 year-old.  I'm beginning to think the same thing!

I had the second two installments of my EMT refresher this past weekend (have to do it every two years), and thankfully I passed.  After not running a call for a good 3 years, I really do need the "refreshing," so part of me enjoys it.  It helped that my class was very friendly and my teacher was the best, but it did stink having to drive the 30 mile/35 min trip out to Stone Bank FD 4 times.  I put a few miles on my car in those two weekends!

The house is the house.  The floor is completely done, and most of the trim is in.  We've been patching and re-sanding the little nail holes on the trim, and will touch up the paint on it this weekend.  Furniture will FINALLY be going up.  I've been sleeping up there anyways for the past week, which has been awesome.  I can't wait to get everything settled both downstairs and upstairs, so we will be ready for Bean to make his/her grand entrance.  The time is ticking...

We've been able to be outside a bunch this week, since the weather has been so ridiculously beautiful.  Here are a few pics of Preston enjoying his time outside.  The blue ones are what I will call "Adventures of Trying to Catch a Picture of a Two-Year-Old At a Park.  i.e. Impossible!"


Such a little boy, playing in the dirt.



So muddy, but so fun!

On his way down the slide!



Hi Mommy!

No time for pictures.

Loves the swing!

Apparently too sunny to look at the camera.

Good to see that swing chains still pinch fingers.  I thought that was only the case when I was a kid...
