Officially FULL TERM!

Well, we're closing in on the end of 37 weeks, which means in a day or two, the baby will officially be FULL TERM! Wow! I'm so thankful for this milestone. At the doctor last Thursday, everything looked great, and I am not dilated any yet - which he said was normal. What is normal is the slight swelling and tiredness I've been having lately, but again, most days I can still see my ankle bones and make it through the day without a nap, so I consider myself lucky :)

I'm not going to divulge the total number of pounds gained so far (LOL) but I'm certainly still growing, despite all I've read that says in the last few weeks, "you may even lose a pound or two!" HA! Not happening here ~ check out the latest belly pic:
The doctor also said last week that it was time for me start resting up for the big day, so Monday June 29 (TOMORROW!!) is my last day at work ~ YiPpEe!!!!!! So, unless tomorrow's the day, what a relief to know I won't go into labor at "the Eastman"...ha ha!! Really, though, I am very glad to have this opportunity to rest up considering how super busy we've been lately with baby stuff, baseball, baby showers, and such. I think the first thing I'm going to do after a big fat midday nap is finish packing my bags for the hospital!!
