Happy Mother's Day!

Cheers to all of you wonderful mother's out there. I hope you're being spoiled rotten today.

If every day were Mother's Day...I might just be thinner and more well rested :) But alas, I will relish in how wonderful today has already been. Sleeping in, and having my happy, clean-diapered baby delivered to me in bed is about as perfect as life gets.

Hubby took the crew out for a big walk, and then made a delicious breakfast before the little guy went back down for his nap. I was able to get out for a run, and enjoy the beautiful day.

Pretty much the best day ever. And I still have brunch and a massage in my future :)

Hubby, thanks for the effort. I really appreciate it.

And for a little added entertainment, this is what my dear boy was wearing after going for a walk. A pair of stripped shorts (with the tags still on), over top of his dino PJ pants, shoes and an animal print jacket. I wonder how many other mis-matched little people were out with their daddy's this morning.

Cheers.

Great Day

WAIT until you see the 3D ultrasound picture. Wow.

Today was a really good day. We did the whole routine at doctor's office today - ultrasound, FHM (fetal heart monitor), exam, blood work, BP. Everything looks great.

Highlights - ultrasound was amazing. They estimate baby is 7.1 lbs, give or take a few miligrams. Growth is on target for size, weight, fluid, placenta, etc. And s/he has hair! Not that I'm the least bit surprised, but totally facinated that it shows up on the ultrasound. And then the tech did a 3D version, so you could see the chubby cheeks, nose and pouty mouth.

Hubby is scanning tonight. Wait until you see it. It is totally amazing. Words can't even describe it.

We've made it to 38 weeks which is great news from development standpoint, we're officially in the safe zone.

I asked if I can go back to prenatal pilates, denied. But she gave me props for trying.

We ended the day with massages, a wonderful treat. And a great way to start the weekend.

Happy Friday!
