We moved into our new house this week! It's been a whirlwind and we were very fortunate to have my Dad and Beth here to help. We're now surrounded with boxes and have yet to completely unpack anything, but at least we're here. Marchus did a fantastic job painting Adam's room and our guest room before the movers brought all of our furniture over. It's great to finally have everything under one roof. Adam LOVES his new house and his new room. He says the backyard is his playground. Each time we drive into the driveway, he pipes up gleefully "My NEW HOUSE!!" It's great that he's adjusted so well.
It has been blissful to wake up in the middle of the night and not have to navigate a steep and narrow staircase to get to the bathroom. It's only 15 steps away... Ahhhh... I can't believe I got thru 8 months of pregnancy with the bathroom on another floor. :)
Yesterday, I made my final journey to Santa Cruz for meetings before baby comes. Since Adam was born at 36 weeks, I just don't feel comfortable going that far from home anymore. My Dad and Beth were there with Adam while I went to my meetings, which was great. Adam got to play at the beach with Granpy and he's definitely a big fan of the ocean. And we all went by to see Nadia and give her some treats. She was definitely happy to see us!
Had my 36 week appointment with my midwife today and she did a quick ultrasound. Baby's head is down where it should be and everything is normal. Adam went with me to see the baby on the screen, but it didn't hold his attention for long. He brought his "baby" doll with him to the appointment. He is convinced this baby is a "sister" and her name is "Cactus".
I feel like I am entering uncharted waters in this last month of pregnancy - having not gotten farther than this the last time. So, the anticipation is building. :) The baby has been having hiccups a lot lately. It's entertaining, except when it wakes me up at 4am.
So, that's the latest here. What a week!
