Happy Labor Day to Everyone!
We'll be spending our Labor Day laboring...that is, painting the baby's room. With the help of our wonderful friends David & Renee and the baby showers this past week it'll look more like a baby's nursery and less like a dumping zone for random stuff by the end of the weekend. Maizy is having fun sniffing all the baby things we've been accumulating the past few weeks and relaxing in the glider with momma-to-be. Hopefully she adjusts to not getting all the attention when the baby arrives. I had my 34 week doctor's appointment this week. I am still pregnant =) and measuring right at 34 weeks.

We'll get some photos up soon to show off the progress of the baby room. While you wait I'll post some photos of my cute niece and nephew above. Enjoy!

31 weeks

We're in the home stretch! Only 9 weeks til the due date! (Oct. 9) I had an ultrasound at 30 weeks and everything looked great. We could really see the face this time (it doesn't look like a scary alien anymore). It's was really amazing! And it is FOR SURE a girl! Hooray for another dancer in the family. The baby has been kicking up a storm and we can see little limbs and who knows what moving around from the outside.

The home preparations (aka nesting) have begun. I've been slowly starting to move some of my clothes into storage and clear out more space for Mike in our room since the lil grasshopper will need some space in the closet in her room. We (Mike that is) are going to start painting the nursery soon. Lucky for Mike there's just one wall to paint...and maybe a couple more if I can talk him into painting some other walls around the house too.

We finally picked a name....but we're keeping it a secret! Unfortunately we did not go with the Donna-tello suggestion from an earlier comment on the ninja post.

Photos are coming soon...we finally got a new charger for the camera so we'll post some in the next few days.
