My new table

Here we are at 37.4 weeks today. I have found a new use for my belly...it now works as my table! I cannot do a plate yet (and hope I don't get that big to be able to balance a dinner plate!) but a bowl fits just fine and stays in place. That is if Claire doesn't decide to kick it off while I am eating!

Things continue to go very well with pregnancy. The girls from work threw me a baby shower on Thursday and we had lots of fun. We got many practical things which will come in handy when Claire makes her arrival. On Friday, I saw my doctor and there was no cervical change. Kind of a bummer, but I have to remember this is my first baby and we are not even 38 weeks yet. He did a portable ultrasound to confirm she is head down, which she is. She was looking to my left side with her back on my right and her butt in my upper left quadrant. Dr Russell said it looks like she has a petite face and her cheeks don't look too chubby...we will see when she comes out! I am able to hear her heartbeat with my stethoscope so I find myself listening to it often. Claire still needs to drop into my pelvis and I have been taking Presley for walks on my days off trying to help that happen. So, no news yet other than the pregnancy continues to go well and I am still loving being pregnant. I will keep you all updated on our status and post some pictures with the delivery information after the big day comes! Please keep us in your prayers for a good labor and a healthy little ( and I stress "little"!) girl!
