34/40 (or so)

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

TIme is flying – it’s hard to believe! Joelle is now at week 34 of her pregnancy (as of today); sure seems like just yesterday we found out about it! Things are coming along – we have week 4 of our childbirth class tonight, last weekend we took our hospital tour,  and all around, we’re just getting the house ready for the new arrival – this includes trying to get Molly to see as many children as she can to get used to them, of course.

Pictures tell the story, as usual – click on the images for larger ones.

 

  • Last week we had a (final, hopefully) ultrasound. As the baby’s gotten bigger, the ultrasound machine can no longer pick up the entire length of her in one photo, but we did get two great shots of her face.

  • We got a fantastic gift of a new rocker/glider for the nursery last week – of course, Joelle needed to try it out!

  • Hitting the 34-week milestone seemed a good time for a belly-shot photo, so took a couple this morning.

Construction of a Crib

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

As I mentioned previously, we’ve started the process of getting our nursery together. Last week, the dressers and crib got delivered. While the dressers were pre-assembled, the crib required assembly. As always, the idea of leaving the big box just sitting there didn’t match our mental makeup, so we tackled the job over this weekend – turns out, this was one of the easier furniture construction jobs to do – the parts and steps made perfect sense (thankfully, given how critical it is to have the crib constructed well). Moving all of the carboard pieces into the recycling bin was actually a harder task!

Having the crib put together is yet another of the steps that caused us to realize how soon the baby will be born – Joelle is now just over 30 weeks (obligatory belly shot on the right), leaving (estimated) only 10 weeks left to go. Unbelievable how fast time is flying!

(Note: I am trying yet a different format for posting pictures – so click on any of the images on the right to see pictures in full detail).
