34 Weeks, Father's Day, and a Sneak Peak

So we continue to work our way through this "40 week" adventure, which I guess is just the beginning of our lifetime adventure.  Saying that we only have 6 weeks left pretty much freaks me out and forces me to get done the things that need to be done.  The nursery is coming along nicely, I'm going to hold off on the pictures of it until we have everything just how we want it.  Hopefully by this time next week, you will get the full tour of the princess suite!  :)

We went to the doctor on Thursday of last week and my OB was a little concerned that my belly measurement had not changed much in the past 4-6 weeks.  I feel like I have gone from a sweet baby doll watermelon to one of the huge ones that feeds everyone at the picnic.  However, she wanted to take precautions and sent me to have an ultrasound (fully anatomy scan, same as what they do at typical 20 week appointments).  We couldn't get an appointment until today, but everything came back looking great!  They said she was growing just fine and weighs about 5 pounds and 2 ounces and that if I go full term she is on track to be a healthy 7 pounder!  YIKES!  We didn't think we were going to get to "see" her again until her birthday, so these was a really nice treat to remind us of the joy that will come once this is all done!  She pretty much looks like an alien, but an alien princess in our book. :)




She wasn't very active during the ultrasound and had her hands up around her face so it was hard to get a full shot of her face.  We did have the ultrasound tech and the doc double check to make sure she was still a girl, and she is!  :)  Not looking for that kind of surprise in the next 6 weeks!


We can't forget that Josiah had his first father's day this weekend as well.  We didn't do a ton to celebrate but I did get him a little father's day "tool" belt.  I picked up a tool belt at the hardware store, but instead of filling it with tools, I filled it with "Daddy Tools."  Some of the items were: boogie wipes, butt paste, baby powder, nuks, diapers, rattles, etc.  Here is a picture of the soon to be daddy sporting his new tool belt.
