Getting closer every day! 35 weeks...

So I know it's been awhile since I've updated...we've had a lot going on!

Of course, as you know, Paul made it to CO safe and sound.  We're in the process of getting the house set up and everything unpacked...and by we...I really mean Paul.  Being eight months pregnant doesn't really allow me to do much unpacking.  I try to do a box here and a box there, but Paul has done 99% of all the work to get the house ready.  And I am so grateful!

Parker's room is just about finished.  We are still waiting for the rocking chair to get here.  With everything going on, we didn't get around to ordering it until last Friday.  They said it takes 4-6 weeks to arrive, and Miss Parker's debut (at the time) was 6 weeks away.  I guess we're cutting it a bit close, but oh well!  Here's her room:


Miss Parker's room!
We have a lamb theme going on here...her sheets have lambs on them, she has a lamb mobile, a lamb lamp, and lots of other lamb-related things.  There are also a few things in here that belonged to Paul and I when we were kids including Paul's train set, my original Dr. Seuss books and stuffed animals (including my Paddington Bear - with hat!!).  The "creepy piano" (as Paul calls it) is in the corner back there.  That was mine as a kid as well.  

As for me, I'm getting bigger every day.  We haven't been taking as many pictures because, well, for that exact reason.  But, here is me and my belly, at just about 35 weeks:


I have been feeling pretty good for the most part, but if I'm on my feet at all, my ankles tend to...well...disappear.  It's rather disturbing, but completely normal of course!

Have to hit the sack - big day tomorrow as one of my greatest friends is getting married.  I am so excited for her but we have a lot to do so I'd better get rested up.  I'll post more pictures (including pictures from the baby shower) when I have more time.
