39 weeks

Not much to update here. I will go to the Dr on Tuesday for another progress check- otherwise things remain the same.
Eric and I met his Dad for dinner tonight- his step mom was out of town and his Dad wanted to take us out since it may very well be our last babyless weekend. What did we do? We had mexican!!! I was hoping maybe the spicy food would help things :) We also have been getting busy (not daily, but probably more in the last week than the last 2 months LOL). And- today I got a mani/pedi/eyebrow wax (as you can see by my beautiful eyebrows in the 'I am bored so let me take a self portrait picture' above)
I also have been nesting a ton- all the drawers in the guest room have been cleaned out as well as all the drawers in our bedroom (which have also been switched and rearranged so that the bassinet will block my drawers instead of Erics). I was really sad about switching the armour for the dresser- but it turns out I actually have more drawer space now so I am happy. As I cleaned out the drawers I sat on a yoga ball (supposed to be good position to help the baby descend).
What else have I done? I put a shamwow under the sheets on my side of the bed. Is that silly? I returned the 60 dollar mattress pad because I had it for a week and had yet to even put it on, so since I am an infomercial whore and had shamwow- and Eric has joked from the beginning that that is what we will use to clean up if my water breaks- I figured that would do as well as anything :)

I really think Ming knows the baby is coming and coming soon. She is extra playful/cuddly/needy around the house. She is acting a little different- I am trying to give her as much attention as possible, but am scared that if I smother her that will make things even harder when baby comes home. The latest thing she did was jump up onto the guest bed, where our hospital bag is laid out (I have not packed it- but I don't want to, it is all in piles with a list and I trade things like yoga pants in and out as I do laundry, so that is where it will be. It will take 2 minutes to throw in a suitcase when the time comes) Anyway- Ming usually sleeps with us, but the other night we could not find her. Lo and behold, she has nosed my neat piles of hospital clothes all around the guest bed, to make herself a nest of sorts, and passed out for the night in there on all my stuff. It was annoying, yet adorable :)

And lastly- 39 week pictures. ONE WEEK TO GO!!!







37 weeks vs 39 weeks- i don't think it looks like much has happened as far as dropping or anything goes- do you?
