Just a photo post. We headed to Dulles Mall for some 36 week maternity photos on March 14th. Bless Mitch for putting up with me and wanting him included in the photos.
Our 36 week appointment was on March 12th. Dr. P informed us that everything is wonderful. Not much to report. Weight and blood pressure are great. Currently my belly is measuring 31 centimeters. She did feel my stomach again to see baby's position. Baby is ready! We asked a few logical questions about the baby's upcoming birth. We spoke a bit about a birth plan. But, naturally-Mitch and I figure we will just go with the flow. We are ready! We have started to pack our bags and do last minute shopping. The house is fairly clean and organized. Mitch has been putting together some of the gifts from the baby shower and our house is full of boxes and baby gear. I have been washing an endless amount of clothes. Baby's room is still under construction. But, that will not be complete until we know if our little one is a boy or girl. Stay tuned to find out!
On March 2nd, we were hit with our first and probably last big snow of the season. It was the day after my baby shower and we received a few inches of snow in Northern Virginia. It was literally almost 70 degrees a few days before the snow storm, March has begun. Of, course this made for a great 34 week maternity photo and poor Mitch had to brave the shoveling alone.
On March 1st, baby and I were showered with love by all my dearest loved ones and friends. We, also, got a very brief dusting of snow that day! It was so great to spend a day with everyone at the Pearmund winery. Yes, a winery! It is a unique choice for a baby shower, but it was awesome. Everyone had fun eating yummy food and drinking wine. Mitch and I were gifts with so many wonderful things for baby. All my mothers(yes, I have more then one) made it a very special day. Here are some photos from the day.
