37 Weeks (and 3 days)

Again, it's been awhile since we've written.  Sorry about that.
We've had a few doctor's appointments since our last post and everything is going great.  As you can see from the pic, Beth's belly is getting much bigger these days.  We're less than 3 weeks away from the due date now and we can't wait.  The warm weather is making everything a little more uncomfortable for Beth, so the sooner the better. 
We pretty much have all the baby stuff ready to go.  The car seat is installed, the stoller is assembled, and there are lots of green and yellow baby things around the house.  Once we find out the gender, I think there will still be room for some pink or blue to be mixed in with all the green and yellow.  It should make for a really neat baby's room.
We have our next appointment on June 7th.  After that, we'll know a little bit better about how things are moving along and when to expect the next phase.  For now, we're content and the doctor thinks Beth is right on track to have the baby around the due date (June 15th).
We'll keep you posted.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

34 weeks

Yep, that's right.  We actually updated the blog 2 times in 2 weeks!  It may not happen every week, but we're making the effort. 

Anyway, we had another doctor's apppointment this week.  Again everything is going well.  The baby is moving a lot and has a strong heartbeat.  Beth is healthy and doing great too.

We've been trying to get everything ready for the baby at home and otherwise.  We have an appointment with a pediatrician next week, we have our name on the daycare "list" (which is actually only us for now), and we've been working on organizing and decorating the baby's room.  We still have a lot to do, but we're getting a little done each day and hopefully will be ready by the time the baby arrives.

Here's a pic from this week.
