I had my 36 week appointment Monday morning! The whole doctor's office was excited that we made it this far! Everything looks great! The doc says I could go any day or make it a few more weeks. We will see....
At this point, we are just looking for the contractions to become regular. I am having lots of contractions but they come and go right now. The doc gave me permission to increase my activities some but he warned me not to go shopping at the mall for 3 hours! (Does that mean 2 1/2 hours would be ok?) I went to target after my doctor's appointment!!! It was so exciting to be out of the house and around people but I was exhausted afterwards and ended up taking a two hour nap when I got home! I am going to try to either run an errand or do a chore at home every day to help out Frank. Today is some laundry and a little bit of vacuuming. I have never been so excited to vacuum! Tomorrow, I think I will run to Babies R us for some items we still want for the baby.
My next creative project: I found an old mirror I had from college in our storage room. I have decided to paint it with the stripes from the nursery and use it on one of the solid green walls. Hopefully, I can get that done this week sometime and have Frank hang it up this weekend.
I picked out curtains for the nursery but I still need to decide on the curtain rod and a ceiling fan. I am having trouble picking out a ceiling fan but my goal is to make a final decision this week and get it ordered!
Hooray! You made it! :) I think I'm excited to actually FEEL a contraction anytime soon... then I could relax a little and realize that the time is almost here.
