Summertime fun

Jeff and I went to the Padres v. Dodgers game on Thursday afternoon. We bought tickets a few months ago, knowing this was game 3 of the series. The series was tied 1-1 going into Thursday's game...and the Padres pulled through for the win! We had great seats in the shade (even though it has been nothing but shady here at the beach lately). Good thing...otherwise my ice cream cone would have totally melted:) I did get a couple of "bless your heart", "stay hydrated", and "oh sorry, don't want to have to make the pregnant woman get up" comments. I milked it knowing I surely looked more uncomfortable than I was (padded seats at the baseball game = SWEET!)

32 weeks and my shirt is too small

55 days until my due date...but who's counting?!?! If I was a betting woman (oh wait..I am!) then I would bet that with the full moon coming on September 23rd, I will deliver on September 24th. I asked my doc about this old wives tale and she confirmed it by saying that it seemed in her experience that ladies go into labor before the full moon or otherwise miss it completely (weeks later they go into labor). Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Regardless of what Google searches may or may not confirm, I am still placing my bet on 9-24-10 in hopes that this baby girl will have the same birthday as her maternal grandma.

Me...pregnant 32 weeks:

Seconds

I now eat seconds. Now I don't mean a second helping, I mean I eat two meals. Betsy has coined the term I have come to love..."second breakfast". I have added "second lunch" and "second dinner" to my vocabulary as well. I can no longer eat as much in one sitting so instead I just eat each meal twice! I just finished "second dinner" which was my favorite cereal, Kashi Heart to Heart Toasted Oats. I think I could eat it for first and seconds...it's that good!

Two more months

My official due date was two months from yesterday! We finished everything in the nursery for now. Aunt Joan made the valance and crib skirt and it looks great! We'll deal with the rest of the stuff next month:) We do have to add some wall art! Betsy said she's willing to help me decorate large wooden letters to spell baby girl's name. We also found some wall stickers to add on the crib wall. We don't have a nursery theme or specific colors, basically everything goes...

This is the view from the doorway (now just imagine that Jeff's bike is somewhere in the room).
