37 Weeks

Our doctor's visit was on Wednesday this week so it was a short week between visits. I tested positive for strep so that means antibiotics will be administered when my water breaks to get rid of it before the baby makes the trip into this world. Supposedly this is common - 40% of women have it when pregnant.

The baby is still in position and I am still measuring ahead. No trip under the hood this visit. After the doctor pushed around my belly and stuff he believes this baby to be around 7 lbs. already. Fabulous - that is bigger than either of us when we were born. The ultrasound next week will tell him more. Oh and the baby hates going to the doctor - it is agitated the rest of the day after we go there.

No other real news....I am uncomfortable but seem to be sleeping better than the past few weeks. I have completely lost my mind. Forgetful, clumsy, etc. We had lunch at Arby's last weekend and without my knowledge I somehow put cheese in my hair that my darling husband had to get out with a napkin and it was crusty! I am a mess.

Three day weekend coming up for both of us. I suppose I should pack a bag for the hospital and finish up some stuff around the house before there isn't any more time to do such things. I am determined we will go to the movies at least once this weekend and out to dinner.

We will watch football too but after the Cowboy's loss last weekend my prediction that Keith was going to have to watch them in the SuperBowl from the hospital isn't coming true so I don't care as much. However, for once in my life I will cheer for the Packer's - can't stand the Giants (sorry James) and do not want the Patriots to win the whole thing. It's all just baby steps to getting closer to pitcher/catchers reporting to Spring Training!!!

It's getting so close! I know that you are so ready, but definitely take the time to do things together, like go to dinner and a movie, that is a perfect idea. We haven't been to a movie since before Lauren was born!
