Gonzalito is the size of a cantaloupe
This week has been a big one. We had a midwife appointment- Gonzalito is still doing well, and is growing nicely. I measured 2 cm short again, but that is within the "normal" limits, so they said not to worry about it. We were reminded of all of the things that we need to prepare and have ready for our 36 week home visit from our birth assistant. So we did some ordering, and still have more supplies to purchase for the home birth preparations! It's crazy to think that we need to be ready to go in just a couple of weeks. Where did the time go??
Also this week, we were very blessed by two baby showers. One was a surprise at work, and the other was thrown for us by mom. Both were wonderful celebrations of our little one, with great friends and family around us. I am so thankful for the graciousness of others in preparing the showers and hosting us!
Boy oh boy! With the grand master of baby showers, Mimi!
With good friend, JaRonda
With the other ladies at the shower: mom/Mimi, Janett, me, and Zara!
With our lovely host, Asa
The favors from the baby shower at work: it was themed from the book If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, and If You Give a Moose a Muffin. Naturally, we ate cookies and muffins! hehe
Maternity Clothes? Definitely.
Stretch Marks? No
Stretch Marks? No
Sleep? Still very good, which is such a blessing!
Best Moment of the Week? Baby Showers! My coworkers threw us a surprise baby shower on Friday (with an "If you give a mouse a cookie" theme) which was such a fun and lovely surprise. Then on Saturday, mom threw us a baby shower for some good friends. It was great to see everyone, and made us feel that much more prepared for Gonzalito's arrival!
Movement? Yes, every day!
What I miss? Nothing.
Symptoms: Same as before- this last week my back was more sore than usual. A combination of working longer hours to gear up for the start of the school year, and not making it to the gym to swim as often as usual, I think.

Milestones: Baby G is the size of a cantaloupe :)
