Sorry it has been a while! Last weekend was Baby's shower hosted by the Peckman's and the Noelke's--and it was a wonderful affair! We got to spend the afternoon with Ama and Baba, and cousin Ellen and Auntie Lynne and Uncle Todd. My how Ellen has grown! She has such a darling personality emerging, and I just can't believe what changes happen in just 3 months. We had wonderful weather, and a great turn out. Marcy and Paul went ALL out with food and planning. Baby got so many wonderful gifts--it is unbelievable how generous everyine is! At our check up this week, the only thing I learned was that baby is roughly 7-7.5 lbs--and with 2 weeks left and the baby gaining about 1/2 a lb a week--the baby will most likely be at least 8 lbs--so we shall see!(G-Marmy, my mom, thinks we will have a 9 lb. baby). I have begun the swelling, and it is scary at the end of the day to look at sausages for toes. I have taken my rings off, to avoid possibly having to have them cut off, and have a fun story--of course has to do with kids. A boy in my class this morning finally noticed that I am pregnant! When he left, he went up to one of the large group leaders and told her that his teacher Miss Amy was going to have a baby. Then proceeded to say that he was worried about me because I was not married. She replied, well, what makes you think she's not married. He said, well, because she doesn't have a ring on! It boggles my mind that he was that observant about my ring, but just noticed that I am pregnant--kids say the darndest things!
So Emily had another dream about our baby--it is so far 2 dreams girl, and this last dream boy (I guess we named him Nathan-her finace's name, and this did not make her very happy!). Is it bad that I have only had one dream about baby? I dreamt in the beginning of our pregnancy that we were having a girl, but have had no dreams since then--well, no dreams about baby, and no dreams that make any sense whatsoever!
PJ and I had a nice Valentine's Day. I got flowers and we ate a fancy meal by candlelight, and the house was so quiet. It was so relaxing. We talked about how we are going to be parents soon, and it is so hard to believe that our count down on here is down to 15 days. I honestly can't wait to meet our little miracle, and hug and kiss and love it unconditionally.
