Getting closer, let the countdown begin!

So I haven't blogged in awhile sorry! I am now 34 weeks and have just 3 left until I'm full term! Last doctors appointment little Charlie was 4 lbs 9 oz and looks like he has his dad's beautiful full lips! They say that when you get this far along the baby moves less but Charlie is still being an acrobat, sometimes it looks like he is knocking on my belly like "let me out!" HUGE HUGE HUGE!
I had a little get together/baby shower for friends down here in Layton and I got tons of diapers and cute little outfits, of course all clothes that small look soooo cute! My mom came down and spoiled her new grandson(and me) it was nice to talk pregnancy fears and labor worries with her and now I have a lot of the little things I needed like bottles and binkys and so forth. The nursery is just missing a few things so I guess I can post pictures now. It's monkey themed!
I made the things that say Charlie and now I want to get a shelf for the empty space.
I sewed those curtains and those baby slings all by myself, I was so proud of me!
I just love this wall because I cannot wait to fill this frame with pictures of my baby, and of course he is our little monkey! On the floor beneath this is a wicker basket filled with stuffed monkeys! If he was born now we could handle it I think but I want to make sure he is nice a chubby so three weeks to go!
Hiding her naughtiness under the table
So just a quick little post about our dog miss Suzie. I think she knows something is up. The other day she made me so mad, it was like she was trying to get me angry. I woke up, she pooped on the floor. I left her alone for a minute, she chewed the remote control and then tried to hide it in her kennel! I had to take a shower and came out she had gotten the hall closet open and taken out the shoes and ripped all the coats down and spread them everywhere! I had just about had it and put her in the kitchen with the gate up for a few hours. I let her out when I got done running errands and taking her on her walk we came back in and PEED on the floor right in front of me, she hasn't peed inside in so long and I had to clean up and it was stinky. And whenever she does something naughty she knows and will hide and try to get out of it by looking all cute. I am immune to her cutenes. She better not do this when Charlie comes!

32 weeks

Just a quick update, went to the doctor and weighed the same I did last time!! Probably because they weren't letting me eat anything! I talked to the doctor and was like um, I don't have gestational diabetes, my blood sugars have been fine. She said, oh yeah, it looks like your probably just sensitive to sugar....GRRRR, Yeah, I knew that like three weeks ago when this all started but whatever. I scared myself today by counting the days until I am 37 weeks and there are only 35 days, and I was thinking wow, I've been waiting for him to come and now I'm not so sure I'm ready! Larin says it is too late now!
The cold that everyone has been getting has made it to our house, it started in Larin and I thought I had dodged it and then woke up a few days ago coughing.
Robert and Rachel and their family were passing through and asked if they could drop in, I said sure if they wanted to brave the sickness, but apparently it had already been passed around their family. It was nice to see them, little Spencer is so grown up now, I say that all the time but him and Robert were playing and talking and I am like he is just like his dad! I'm glad family stops by since it is so hard for us to get up to Idaho with Larin's schedule.
Our apartment complex finally chipped out the ice in our area of the parking lot and what do ya know, we had a winter storm come through and the sun doesn't hit our area so it's all piled up again!
Anyways, no pictures this time, I really am trying to get the nursery all put together! There's our past two weeks in a nutshell!
