Just a quick post

SO thing are super busy round here today and all this weekend really. Right now we are under a blizzard warning and have already gotten at least 20 cm of snow with another 10 - 30 expected....yeah....nice! The firepit is completely buried in the back yard and well it's just not very nice given that it's almost the end April for goodness sake! I mean 1 week ago it was 27 degrees celcius and just utterly gorgeous weather!!! Now it's -18 with the windchill!!! UGH! Hopefully this is the last blast so to speak!

 

At least we made it to Calgary for our 3D ultrasound on Thursday before the storm came on Saturday so we got some great stuff done. First off we went to Babies R Us and bought a playpen, it's really nice and we got a great deal! Here it is:

Pretty huh?

 

And I thought I'd show you the swing that the In Laws got us

Very cute! Both of these are all set up and ready to go!! YIPPEE!!!!!

Oh and my bedding set came in and it is wayyy more gorgeous in person I am so in love with it!

 

Now on to the best part of the post! ;) Baby was literally jumping around in there and snuggled up close to the placenta again like last time so we really did have a hard time getting many great pics but we did get to see her and that's all that counts! So here is her sweet little face!

Can you believe it?! It's just soooo cool what they can do...I can't believe we get to see her little face before she's born!!!! And as of today I'm 34 weeks...only 6 weeks to go! WOW!

 

Well I have got to run soooo much to do before the week starts, laundry, cleaning, supper, homework and on and on. Poor DH is out there trying to shovel the snow right now...chili for dinner should help warm him up. ;)

On Our Way

No not to the hospital lol, but for our second 3D ultrasound tomorrow, YIPPEE!!! I can't wait to see this little girl. From what we saw in their books last time we were there at this stage in the pregnancy they look very similar to pictures that were taken of them after they are born so that will be sooo cool to see her little face early!

Of course it's a 6 hour round trip drive but hey it's so worth it. While we are there we will also make quick pit stops at Thyme Maternity and Toys R Us. I think we'll buy a playard tomorrow, with the new puppy we think it will be necessary to have somewhere to put her down (other than her crib) where she can't get accidentally licked to death or sat on lol.

Oh and can I tell you how sweet my hubby is?! We had a family shower that his parents put on for us this past weekend (more details and pictures to come) and he bought me the comforter set I had been eyeing...it should be here in a few days I think. I was so surprised! What a sweetie! ;) We also got lots of cute clothes and stuffies and even a swing! So it was a great day! Like I said I'll post pics and stuff later.

Ok off to pack up DVDs, games, snacks, etc for the drive tomorrow. :)

It's getting to be uncomfy round here lol

Oh my, I think I have run out of room in my belly, haha! I am down to only a finger's width left between me and the steering wheel...guess that means I will either have to buy some serious platform shoes or become a hermit! ACK! With short legs and a huge belly that's what happens heehee. And now the dietician I have to see keeps telling me to eat more!?! UGH! I am TRYING, lol...I am seriously tired of eating for now. And can I tell you how hard yoga is with short legs and a big belly? Last class I was doing a pose and holding on to the chair to save my life or else I would fall over! The instructor came over and said yeah that's clearly not good with short legs, try it this way. ROFL I was close to going down like the titanic! Ahhhh, it will all be worth it though in just a few short months, less than 2  already. :)

We have another 3D ultrasound booked for next Thursday, yay I can't wait! (Although I am not exactly looking forward to another 6 hour trip.) Not only do I get to have more new pics of this little soccer player/wrestler in here (she is seriously beating me up daily!) but I can do some shopping at Babies R Us too and Thyme Maternity, yay! I can't wait! I really hope we can see her more clearly than last time, I want to see her sweet little face again!

I got another layout done, I am not super duper happy with it but I think it's sweet and certainly didn't want to trash it...of course it's of the little sweetie that's turning me black and blue on the inside heehee so how could I not love it?! Credits can be seen here.

And just for my dad who keep bugging me lol, here is me on Easter...I have grown already since then too!  As you can tell I am not really a fan of pictures of myself. (Plus I think I need to educate DH on the most "flattering" ahem of angles lol.) ;)

Well I guess that's it for now. Wish me luck shopping for platform shoes! ;)
