Can It Be? Less than a month left?

Wow! I cannot believe we have less than a month to go before Baby Wooley is supposed to be here! I am MORE than ready to have him here!!

The one thing I will never again take for granted: bending over to pick something up off the floor!!

Matt has been WONDERFUL! He's done the dishes, since standing up makes my feet swell. He has cooked dinner pretty much since I got pregnant since some of the smells made me sick. And he has put up with a LOT of moodiness and tiredness from me.

I can't wait to see him and his son together -- I know it is going to steal my heart -- and he is going to be the BEST daddy!! :-)

Look how much he loves our Cobb
 
 
Lots has happened since my last blog update. My aunt and cousin were so sweet to throw me a baby shower! Baby Wooley got lots of great stuff!!
 
 
Loved the pictures of me as a baby as decoration
 

I adore (ADORE) this shirt!! It'll be a few years before he can wear it, but it will totally be worth the wait!
 

Props to Chaunte for putting aside her Braves allegiance to get the baby some NY Mets stuff
 
Work girls

Me and my BFF, Chaunte :-)
 
We have also almost finished the nursery. All that is left is to hang the drapes, which I think we're going to do today.
 
We did find these ADORABLE (I know, I say that word a lot) Mets pictures for the nursery...
 

 
Not to worry Mom- and Dad-in-law...Baby Wooley may be raised in Atlanta, but he will always know where his loyalty and allegiance lies with the New York Mets.


 
Finally...here's the latest details on where we stand...

How far along? 36 weeks

How big is baby? The size of a large cantaloupe (19 to 22 in, 6 lbs)
 
Sleep: FINALLY...last night I actually found a comfortable sleeping position -- and I managed to not wake up every 2 hours!!

Best Moment this Week: Finding out there's only 4 weeks left! :-)

Movement: Still moving really well. He flip flops and kicks me in the lungs every now and then, but I guess that comes with the territory.

Food cravings: I wouldn't say I'm having cravings for anything really -- other than Hibachi early last week.

Food aversions: Nope

Gender: Not sure I need to update this every time -- but he's still a boy, otherwise, we are NOT prepared!

Pregnancy symptoms: Reflux, but I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm pretty sure that will stick around until the end.
 
Belly button in or out? In, although more shallow than normal

What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach

What I'm looking forward to: Baby Wooley's arrival

Upcoming appointments/events: Nothing too exciting...a doctor's appointment next week, and then we'll be down to every week.

Weekly wisdom: I have no wisdom this week...I'm too tired.

Milestones: One week away from what doctor's would say is "full term," but I've told him he needs to stay in there until the beginning of June.

Coming next time: No telling...
