Two months to go!!!

Our due date is exactly two months from today. I wonder if he will decide to be early, on time, or late? Everything seems to be going well. I'm starting to get back in the tired stage, but I guess that is quite common during the third trimester. He is supposedly around 3.3 lbs. and a little over 16 inches from head to toe.

I have a new mommy milestone to talk about. I've can now feel when the baby has hiccups. He even had them twice today. Now he just has to have them when Ben is around so that he can feel them. At least the hiccups have helped me know how he is positioned in there. His head is down and to the left, which means that the constant lump on the right side is his butt and also confirms that his little feet are having fun with my right ribs.

Our Fat Christmas Tree...


Check out our fat tree. Ben LOVES Christmas and we always have to cut our tree down right after Thanksgiving. This year he picked out a tree that was a little shorter than normal (the angel's head doesn't touch the ceiling like past years), but he made up for it with how fat it is. I know it is probably hard to tell from the picture, but it is actually a little under six feet wide. Impressive, huh?

The crib & dresser are assembled!






Ben and I put the dresser together on one day and then the next day Ben put the crib together all by himself (while I took a nap). We are slowly getting ready for the big arrival.

Back in Business

We bought a new laptop computer so I am back in business! We got up early and stood in line outside at Staples on black Friday (which happens to be Ben's favorite day of the year to shop). We were lucky and managed to get the last laptop that we had our eye on so I can now get the pics off of our camera. After our successful stop at Staples we proceeded home to go back to bed for a few more hours before getting up and shopping round two.

Here are the all awaited pics of my big belly. We only have two and a half months to go if baby decides to come on time. I'm feeling pretty well. He still continues to kick me constantly, but I'm getting used to it.
