Whooo! I'm 35 weeks today and feeling it :) We had BBQ with our friends over the weekend and had a great time! I got all my other supplies ready, just waiting on the swings to be returned from Gary's friend. Saw the midwife today, baby is measuring 35 weeks and doing great! Everthing is normal, and I'm now on weekly appointments until the baby comes :) I'm going to pack up a bag and the diaper bag today - but everything else is ready to go! I'm more than ready to meet this little person now!!

So over the last week, I got most of the baby stuff ready. Carseat is washed, bassinet is up, baby laundry done and put away - today we bought diapers, baby lotions and post-delivery supplies for Mom, lol. Most of it is packed and ready for baby!! I see the midwife on Monday and I'm sure she'll be impressed with my progress :) Our bedroom has been painted and is all back together now, I managed to get the boys rooms fully unpacked and everything away - go me!! Here's some pics of the boys taken over the last few days Can you believe he's 16 months old today?? *sniff*

Two loads of unisex baby clothes/blankets and the covers for both bouncer chairs are washed and ready to be put away. Now I just paitently wait for Gary to move his clothes from his old dresser (baby's "new" dresser) to his new one so I can put all the stuff away. I still have to find the baby bin with all the washable breast pads, my pump and various baby gear inside it - have to get all that stuff washed up and ready too. But it's progress, baby has clothing to wear weather it's a boy or girl, lol. Then I have 2 garbage bags of girl clothes and 2 bins of boy stuff ready to be washed. It's so much FUN smelling those baby clothes again. My wonderful friend Laura came over yesterday and we're in the process of painting our bedroom a nice dark navy colour - most of the walls have 2 coats - but we ran out of paint (oops!) so can't finish until tomorrow. The boys also helped me unpack the rest of the toys in the playroom, so we just need the couch moved in...

So we're at the new house now. It was a long process but we got here. House is still unorganized but most of the important boxes are unpacked and everything is where it should be. It'll probably take a couple more weeks to have it looking normal, lol. I saw Carolynn today for my 33 week check up and everything is cruising along. I'm measuring 34 weeks, heart rate is fine as is my blood pressure. Baby is still head down - yay!! I go back in 2 more weeks and then I'm on weekly appointments until baby arrives :) I'm getting a little more organzied now - some bins are upstairs and I have to wash/put away all the unisex stuff. I tried to get some newborn diapers at Walmart tonight, but they were all out, eeeeeeek - so next time. I have to get my back packed and all that fun stuff still too :)

Woohoo! We got the keys at 5pm on Tuesday and have been moving stuff ever since. The patio set is there as is the couch and loveseat. Tomorrow we have the applicances being delivered and Rogers coming to install the internet, phone and cable - hopefully everyone will come early so we don't sit around there all day. This will probably be my last update from this house!! The boys are excited - I'm just happy to be in our own home :) Baby has been really active - I can't believe I'm 32 weeks already! I see Carolynn again next Wednesday - I'm almost on weekly appointments, EEK!
