I got to go down to Ponce Inlet and spend time with my Tierney family, went to dinner, had a sleep over and snugged with my Jenna pup who missed me so much that she jumped up on the bed to sit with me and she NEVER does that for anyone :) i'm so special :) The next day was my baby shower and my sister and Teya did a great job, I loved all the little crafty decorations and the food was yummy too. I got so many great gifts and visitors came from far away, the whole day showed me just how much G and I are loved by everyone, how excited everyone is to meet her and how happy they are for Darin and I.....really makes a 9 month prego mommy feel good. :) It only took me 3 days to go through everything from the shower, deciding what goes in the suitcase home, or barrel home, what stays here for next time and what doubles I needed to return and then a bag for tags and hangers and trash, laundry alone took me an entire day, unreal!! I got some great pics so i'll be sure to post them :) I now have her changing table and pack n play all set up and ready for her to come home too. I have just a few more things to get and my shopping is DONE!! I'm also deciding on a dresser and some shelves to ship.....it's all a learning process with shipping costs, dimensions, duty to pay in Barbados and all that, I should write a book about it lol.
My dad and I had a movie night and we went to see Jack Ryan (so good!), we also had a really pointless trip to Target the next night that ended in purchasing a pocket knife, women's things and a Starbucks coffee.....not what we planned on getting or doing but it's nice to have the quality time with him since he works all day and I don't see him until dinner time, and then i'm going out or he's going bowling so the time with him i'm grateful for.
I had my 37 week appointment Friday (i like friday am appointments because my mom always comes and we are sure to stop and get coffee and donuts from dunkin donuts after, :) I'm effaced 65%, dilated a big fat 0, got a flu shot, and measuring right on the dot....I also gained 3lbs....again....in a week! I think thats the hardest part about all of this is the weight gain in the end.....you seriously want to consider dieting even though you know it's for a good cause and most of it will probably go away after but still....this girls isn't use to this type of weight and I can't wait to get back into the gym and be me again, although my mom is happy she weighs less than I do now :) such encouragement!
1 WEEK TILL DARIN'S HOME!!!
2 WEEKS TILL BABY G!!!
