Squirmy is a little pumpkin now, weighing around seven pounds. I had my 38 week check-up today and, as usual, am measuring to the day... yay! The baby was head down and -- drumroll please -- I am 1-2 cm dilated! I could stay like that for a few weeks or I may slowly progress until I go into labor in the next several days... I am guessing the first one is what will come to pass. Still, it is exciting!

We are rounding up the last few baby things that we need (yeah, we're behind... packages containing things like pajamas and receiving blankets are yet on the way).

My hips seem to have spread so far apart that I may actually have a thigh gap after this is all over.

I have a pregnancy belt that has shoulder straps and it is truly a bra for my belly -- which has definitely dropped, by the way. I love this belt.

I have continued sewing. Will do a blog featuring my finished projects later on. Next project is a sleep sack!

All exercise is now in the form of swimming because of my low belly and sore hips/groin.

My husband is truly a super hero with all the work he has done to prepare this house for the baby. I am becoming more and more physically unable to do useful things and he has really stepped up. It's a pity he has to return to work on Monday.

Tonight we went out to eat for our anniversary, which is on Sunday! We had some lovely food from Olive Garden. Happy fourth anniversary to my sweetheart! I am so thankful for my husband.

Since I got "dressed up" for our date I had my husband take a bump picture. Feast your eyes on thirty-eight weeks gestation!
