38 Weeks

Anthony and I are 38 weeks today, only two away from his due date and one week away from being full term! He's now the size of a pumpkin and, boy, can I feel it! Unfortunately, though, I'm not dilated quite yet so we have to wait a little longer. (We had our weekly appointment yesterday where my doctor checked my cervix for dilation.) Hopefully, next week's appointment will bring better news (like early delivery!).

I've been on a craft kick this week. I made wall decorations yesterday for my aunt's twin girls (due in August), Catherine and Zoey. They came out so cute that I decided to make more today. Of course I did one for Anthony that we'll hang in the room for now, but will eventually go on the door when he gets his own room. I also made one for each of my sisters and one of our last name for our apartment door. Here's Anthony's:

We received a couple of shower gifts today, as well. We got two cards with checks, one from my parents' good friends (and my brother's god parents) Mark and Pam, and another from Matt's grandpa and his wife. We also got a Five Little Monkeys themed gift basket from my friend, Sam. It came with an adorable stuffed animal and blanket as well as a door hanger that says "Shh, baby is sleeping". I'll be writing out thank yous tomorrow!
