36 weeks pregnant.. and recap on Waterpark fun with Ben


                                             36 weeks pregnant with baby girl
                                             Ben enjoying the Kalahari Waterpark

We are in the mood of counting down and preparing for baby at our house.  A few weekends ago, we enjoyed a getaway trip to the Kalahari in the Dells with Jon's brother Dan and his wife Katie and then my cousin Sara and her husband and kids. We had a great time and it was great to get away.

Now this weekend I had a 4 day weekend. Jon's mom was here for a few days which was nice and I got a lot of baby preparation completed.. .crib all arranged and ready, baby clothes washed, bottles washed, nuks boiled and ready to use, bassinett upstairs, formula purchased a as backup if nursing doesn't work, have my bag packed.. cameras charged and with memory cards.. Feeling a little more ready for this little girl to come..  Jon still needs to put carseat bases on the car ...Jon and I also got away for a dinner out this weekend which was a nice treat.
I keep having strange dreams about baby girl's arrival including a surprise birth at home, in the car and that its a boy..my dreams are always strange lately.

I am hanging in there.. feeling more tired but not super uncomfortable yet.. my dr thinks this baby might be smaller then Ben (he was 9lbs 9oz).. I am okay with a little smaller and since my c-section is at 39 weeks (3 weeks from Wed) that might help too... might actually have baby girl get to wear some newborn clothes.

Hoping the next 3 weeks and 16 days of work go quickly... can't wait to meet this baby girl and enjoy my 12 weeks at home with kids this spring:)
