3 pound princess

Well we are now 30 weeks. We had our last ultrasound on Thursday. The doc said she is 3.1 pounds. I immediately thought, "crap she is going to be huge". I was 6.14- she is already about half that and we still have 10 weeks to go!   Oh well, chubby babies are cute. During the ultrasound she had her arms and feet above her head. The tech had me cough, move to my side, go to the bathroom, and lay back on my back to try to get her to move so we could see her whole face; but she refused to put her limbs down. So we got a cute picture of half her face peeking through her arms.

She moves around a lot, and I can feel hard parts (bum or head?) though my belly.  My belly button is beginning to flatten. I feel great, except for the strained butt and groin in my left leg from lifting.  I am getting out of breath quicker when I walk Harv, but still walking fine.

This past weekend we had a diaper and dog party. A bunch of our friends came over and they brought  diapers and we grilled.  One of our good couple friends hosted it but we had it at our house. It was fun to have everyone at our house hanging out.  It was Memorial Day weekend so Matt and I got to spend 3 days together :).   He says I get crabby quickly, I don't know what he is talking about :). Dang  hormones.

We decided to deliver at Methodist West, feels less like a hospital. And we have a baby basics class coming up where we learn about swaddling, changing diapers, and I am not sure what else.  I think as soon as June hits this summer will fly.  So exciting!
