Week 35
November 29, 2007
So, I innocently ask the Dr. at Wednesday's appointment, "how big is this baby?" He replies with the following non-answer: "If I were a betting man, I'd say you'll have this baby one week after your due date." What the..??!!
I was so000 sure that this kid was coming out ASAP, I mean, there is simply no more room in there, right? Most women will tell me what I want to hear: "oh yeah, that kid will be born in 2007, mark my words." -sigh- They are so nice and deceiving.
At any rate, we are slowly getting the baby room in order. After spending a fabulous Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday with Jodi & Dean, et al. (SEE DEAN'S BLOG LINK ON THE RIGHT FOR GREAT COMMENTARY), we stopped in San Jose to pick up the crib. Alas, the dresser has yet to come in, but I'll settle for whatever 'nesting' I can do. To finnish off the title of this blog post: you know you are getting old when you just want to stay home Friday night to wash crib sheets so you can put them on the new crib!!
There is a ton of baby crap still all over the place awaiting the dresser, but here is a view of the crib:
Pretty cute, right? I also decided to take off the doors to the closet in order to create more space for a bookcase. (IKEA purchase). I'm not really sure this kid has enough clothes - what do you think?
And more clothes keep-a-comin' nearly everyday. If you are one of those generous folks: THANK YOU! I will mail you a thank you note soon. Keep reading to understand the delay (sorry!).
In other news... only 4 more trips to San Jose this semester! I have a final due tomorrow (12/1), and my other two classes will only meet a total of 3 more times!! Hallelujah. I am just a little bit tired, and only slightly overwhelmed, in addition to being a bit uncomfortable. Truly, I can't complain about this pregnancy's effects on my body. Even the drives to class aren't terrible. The courses are interesting and (for the most part) relevant to my daily work.
I won't go into detail about work, but I am looking forward to two things:
1 - getting a final date to begin demolition of the swimming pool building.
2 - not working for 2 months!!
Have a great day, S-dub & babe

Great entry. The crib looks fabulous. I thought you were Danish not 'Finnish' (see your entry). The closet with the bookcase looks good. You're not getting old staying home on a Friday, you're simply making your baby's home even warmer. There ain't nobody who would dis you for that.
