happy thanksgiving! obviously, we've got a whole lot to be thankful for over here at chez z. we hope you and yours are happy, healthy, and feeling as good as we are!this week started off with a bang, when we went to our (now weekly) doctor's appointment, and she felt the baby's head! the baby is in position, ready to go, though the doctor still thinks she's on schedule. of course, on schedule means she's due in UNDER FOUR WEEKS, not that we're counting.
also, at the beginning of the week, baby z got a new cousin! our huge congrats to my cousins l. and j. who welcomed a 7lb 2oz baby boy into their lives on tuesday. we can't wait to meet him!
as you can see from the photo, i have gone from pregnant to ludicrously pregnant. this is the first week (possibly of my lifetime) that it's become difficult to sleep; both because it's hard to find a comfortable position, and because she loves to cha cha cha on my various internal organs. when i'm awake, it's quite fascinating and very dramatic to watch huge lumps appear and recede in my abdomen, but when it's late at night, it is very distracting from the matter at hand.
we are spending our long thanksgiving weekend doing things that are very exciting for us, but perhaps not so exciting to read about. we washed all of the size 0 - 3 month clothes. we washed the crib sheets and made the baby's bed. we're going to pack a hospital bag tonight.
it's pretty amazing to think that in a month or so, we'll get to meet this little person!
