Maternity Photos and Weeks 32 and 33

Over the holidays I finally finished Jesse's 4th anniversary present (a year and a half after giving it to him). I is a cross stitch of this Irish Blessing that his whole family has a wall hanging of. I finally got a framed and we got it hung up a couple weeks ago - I think it turned out really well and and am so happy to have it done :)

I have my first (of two) baby showers this afternoon and am so excited! I am actually starting to feel more ready by the day and am really looking forward to actually getting to meet the baby.

I had a maternity photo session yesterday which was a lot of fun. I really like professional maternity photos and think it is such a cool way to celebrate such and amazing experience. I really liked the photographer and she will be doing infant photos (when the baby is about 1 week old) too. They should be posted online in about two week and will be up again after the infant session.

I finally got around to taking pictures of the
"finished" nursery. The walls are painted and the furniture is arranged pretty much how we want it but we still haven't really decorated much. We have also done nothing (not really even thought about) curtains for the windows. We do plan to replace the ugly ceiling light (which isn't visible in either picture) with a ceiling fan. I want to get stencils (or have someone more artistic than me or Jesse) paint animals on the fan blades.

We managed to get the room arranged so that the futon still fits which I was very happy about. I like knowing we still have and "extra bed" for people to sleep in. I am not sure the glider will fit with the futon in the room (we haven't tried) but I really like it in the living room right now so I don't think that would be entirely bad :)

I still think I have had a pretty easy go of the whole pregnancy experience. I felt a little sick all day Thursday but felt better Friday and fine today. My poor stomach is definitely out of space - I can eat so little before I feel uncomfortably full (which is especially pathetic for those who know how little I normally eat). I also have to be very careful what I eat and how late I eat in the evening or I get really bad acid reflux at night and end up not being able to sleep. I would say I am still enjoying the experience even though I am definitely getting more uncomfortable.

PIME still manages to move like a champ even though I am sure space it getting tight :) Jesse and I both enjoy kind of poking at my stomach where PIME so that PIME will kick/push back. Kind of makes me think if backward tug of war :)
