The last time I updated this space I looked like this:

| 20 week belly! |
Now I look like this:

| 35 week belly! |
At 35 weeks, the baby is supposedly about the size of a honeydew and seems to be planted directly on my bladder. I had a sonogram at 32 weeks and the technician estimated the baby's weight to be 4 lbs. 11 ounces, that's a huge 32 week old! I'm not overly worried about the weight considering they estimated Hannah's weight to be right around 7 lbs. shortly before her birth and she came out at 8 lbs. 9 oz. The most important thing is that the baby continues to look healthy. We have another sonogram in a week and I can't wait to take another peek!

We're finally starting to get the house ready for this little baby beluga! And by we, I mean Eli. He installed shelving in the kids room closet so that we were able to move most of the toys there. And with the toys out of the way he was able to put the crib up in their room! Hannah helped!

Still not happy in the crib!

Now most of the prep falls to me. My "to do" list includes sorting through Hannah's clothes to make room for the new baby's stuff in their dresser, washing all of the bedding and tiny clothes and finding all of the baby equipment that was packed away (not so) long ago! I suppose I should pack a hospital bag and install the carseat at some point too. I'm fully expecting another almost 42 week pregnancy which is quite possibly giving me a false sense of security when it comes to prep time!
I think Hannah is beginning to understand that we're going to have a baby in the house or at least that something is up. She spends most of the day disrobed from the waste down, with her shirt up looking at her "baby". She also insists I lift my shirt up so she can see my baby to give it kisses and cuddle in.
It's pretty adorable.
