36 weeks

36 Weeks as of yesterday! We have made it to our 9th month. 


When our pregnancy was confirmed at 6 weeks, the sono tech and doctor said "since you found out so early, your pregnancy will seem like forever!" Yeah, no. Time has just flown!


Technically at 37 weeks she will be considered full term but I still feel like shes too small to come out! That and a combination of my cold feet and unwillingness to believe that she is almost here and  that she will change our lives forever. She will no longer be a figment of my imagination and I wont have to dream about what she will look like when she arrives.


While the nursery is pretty much ready to go, hospital bag is packed, and diaper bag is all set, tangible evidence of her being physically present is still lacking.


I practice referring her to her name, instead of "baby". It still feels like its not real, but every time I feel her kick, I am reminded that this is really happening. I don't think that Romeo has fully accepted the fact that his life is changing too. I feel at a slight advantage because I take her with me in my pouch. So I can just imagine his lack of understanding what is going on. 


And while I'm not a huge fan of divulging my every free minute to technology, I have found much entertainment in several pregnancy apps. My favorite is PregBuzz by The Bump. The forum is filled with every subject, on and off the pregnancy topic. I find some of them super helpful and hilarious! So whenever I'm not busy, you will usually find me "bumping" with other moms, mommy-to-be, and TTC-ers.  


I also had my first baby shower this pasted Saturday and Im pleased to say that we are so fortunate to receive so many gifts.  We are so grateful! It helped us so much! We are pretty much ready to go, but we still have the shower that Lyz is throwing us, and another one that my MIL is throwing us as well. We are so blessed! <3
