We had a very enjoyable weekend in Reno to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and I felt amazing after my pre-nantal massage. It was so nice to have one last little weekend just the two of us before the madness of visitors and getting ready for baby comes. Didn't help that I fell three days later and re-tweaked my back. Oh well...I guess I need another massage?
Monday the 29th came and we did another ultrasound to check up on Pebble's growth. This time it was too fun, because he has gotten enough fat that now you can really see his features! I got to watch him yawn and take a drink of the fluid, and I realized how big he has gotten since the last ultrasound! We went back in the afternoon to see my doctor and discuss the results of the ultrasound, and Dr. Scates says that Pebble is now measuring perfectly! All of the numbers are "grouped well" and that there is no longer a concern. As of the 29th, he weighed 2lbs, 2oz, and he is right on track for his October 2nd due date.
I myself am growing so much everyday! I am slowly gaining new stretch marks (although they are clear, so I am not too concerned!) and my once never-ending belly button is getting closer and closer to popping out into a snooze button. You can now see both sides of my belly ring hole, and the scar from my gall bladder surgery is now almost all visible (it used to be almost completely hidden inside my belly button). I also have the beginnings of the dark line that goes down the center of your belly. Some women get it all the way from to to bottom of the belly, but mine seems to just be belly button down. I can't believe how much I am changing each day.
We got Pebble's room all cleaned out and the closet organized so all of the clothes-presents and hand me downs-that we have recieved are now hanging up, and the only things in the room are the guest bed (we will need that in there until Christmas, at least...we have so many visitors coming!!!) and his bassinet and stroller. Now if only we can finish organizing the rest of the house...because Liz (my sister) and Luke (her Boyfriend) are coming for a 10 day visit starting this Friday!!! We are so excited! It will be nice to see some of my family while I'm pregnant. My mom will be coming 4 days after Liz & Luke leave, and Cameron's parents will be here then too! We love to have guests here at Stone Inn.
My Baby shower is coming quickly. It will be held on July 25th at my boss' house, and I can't wait for my friends abd family to all get together to help me celebrate my first child. It should be so much fun!!!
