So, in the last week we have:
- Finished our awesome birthing classes
- Took an infant care class at the same awesome place
- Took a breastfeeding class at the same awesome place
- Met with pediatricians and found a group that seems really fantastic
- Toured the Cedars Sinai labor and delivery department and got a sense of how they operate
- Took another infant care class, this time at Cedars (a VERY DIFFERENT perspective, very mainstream but still informative/helpful)
- Had a great checkup today with the doc.
- I went on disability, and boy are my arms tired. And my back, and my front, and everything in between.
We will so miss our classes at Bini Birth but I'm hoping I'll go back for the Mom's group there. Doctor says baby is doing great, next week we will have an ultrasound to make sure he isn't 25 lbs by this point. On to baby shower on Saturday, can't wait!
The joy and the sweetness of all this is settling in and David and I both just wake up every day amazed and grateful and full of love. How wonderful.
I totally forgot to post some pics from the office baby shower last month. Here are a few:
Guitar pick cupcakes!

The cool bag!

I just tear up every time I read these posts. I'm so glad you are just soaking up the moments and enjoying this Little guy as he grows - it's a precious time. I know you can't wait to meet him and know who he is with all his own little ideas and quirks. You'll never forget these moments, but you'll be amazed 20 years later when you look at him and go "Wow!! I had no idea this is who you would become!" The best part is, that 20 year old will be one of the best things in your life at that time just as he is right now! If I were there in person, this is where I'd lean over and give you a hug. REST and enjoy the anticipation. You're going to be a GREAT Mom!
