Bedroom Work Day
Today is Friday, and I'm not at work! No, I've not been fired (yet). Actually, we're spending all day and tomorrow getting little baby Sara's bedroom ready! AK has our camera tonight for his Haloween party, but we plan to take some progress pictures tomorrow. Pink and white stripes, I think are what's happening, and some black mixed in somewhere. Lauren says it'll be a while before Sara actually sleeps in there, but I guess it'll look pretty in the mean time. Can't wait for the birth day!

No News Is...
I had a doctor's appointment this morning, and all is well! We listened to the baby's heartbeat, which was 155 and "strong," the doctor said. I go back in two more weeks, when I'll get tested for Group B Strep. If I test positive (10-30% of pregnant women do), I'll have to have an antibiotic drip during labor. After that visit, I'll be in there every week for the next 4 weeks (as long as I don't go late!). I can't believe there are only 6 weeks left until my due date. People try to convince me that's a long time, but when I compare it to the 34 already, it feels like it's coming fast.

Family Shower
On Sunday, October 15, Betty, Lydia, and Paula hosted a family shower for us at Grandma Mary's. There were lots of people, lots of food, and lots of fun! Annie and Katie came in for the weekend, and my whole family was there.

Free Woman
I just finished my first week at home! Friday, Oct 13 was my last day of work. It sure flies by more when I'm at home. I have so much to do: clear out the baby room, paint the baby room (Mom says she'll help...), organize baby clothes, unpack gifts, write thank you notes -- I'm feeling a little overwhelmed! Add to that the fact that I keep forgetting that I can't do as much as I'm used to, and some days I just feel like doing a load of laundry and cooking dinner is an accomplishment! But it's so fun to be preparing for this exciting time to come, and my stress level is way down now that I'm not working. I'm blessed that I have a husband who wants that for me and our kids!

Bigger all the time
These days I'm really starting to "feel it." At 32 weeks, Sara moves all over the place, and creates quite an issue at night when I'm trying to sleep! It won't be long now...
