32 Weeks (That's 8 Months Y'all!)

What a great weekend! Originally the whole family was planning a trip to Houston to see my grandparents. So naturally, Heather and I took Friday off so we could basque in the glory of a three day weekend. Well, when the trip got postponed, we wound up with a lot of free time with nothing on the agenda.

I got my hair cut, a pedicure, and a gel manicure (love those!) on Friday. Saturday was pool time and our first crack at homemade sushi. I'd say it was a success! Then yesterday was spent doing homework while it rained all day, and then an evening celebrating my grandfather's 91st birthday.

Today my reality is back. The worst part of a relaxing weekend is returning to the real world on Monday. Catching up on work. Washing piles of laundry. Cleaning. And starting a fresh to-do list for the week.

On the agenda this week? Finishing up the adorable dresser mom and I found last weekend. A preview is below. Then hanging the fabulous chandelier in Elayne's room when it gets delivered on Wednesday.  The love seat that will go in her room is also getting recovered this week. Also hospital classes begin this week! Things are really coming together. Can't wait!

32 Weeks

Baby Elayne

Size: Jicama (about 4 pounds and 16 inches long) - Mexican yam/turnip

Important Developments: She should be turning into her downward patterning and "dropping" soon if she hasn't already. We are getting so much closer!

Noticeable Symptoms: She keeps kicking my ribs. I'm running out of room. And everyone says suddenly my belly popped out even more this week. Still only gained 13 pounds to-date. I'm pretty happy with that.
