6 Weeks To Go, Success at Subaru, Weekly Check In

We are officially 6 weeks (42 days) until Emma's due date-- I can't believe she'll be here in just a few weeks! There's so much to do in such a short time.

The nesting has started, and I kicked it off by starting to do some of the laundry. Here's a picture of me holding the first load of laundry--- keep in mind this is only ONE wash, and... it was only the stuff that was in two drawers in her dresser.



I've done a few loads of blankets (yes, she has THAT many blankets), some sheets/towels/washcloths, and have an entire closet full of clothes to wash. Spoiled kiddo! :)

This weekend was a bit hectic for us, but the best part of it was when we FINALLY had some success at Subaru! Brian's new 2011 Outback came in 5 weeks ahead of schedule, so we headed over to the Cary dealership on Saturday morning to pick up his new toy. It's a beautiful car-- leather interior, media hub, heated seats, sunroof...the works! We're loving it so far. Here are a few pics:







For those of you who don't know, we finally decided on a name... Emma Grace Trumpatori. We ordered some customized artwork for her room this week, and it should be here by the end of June. After that, the room is complete! Yeah!

Ok, onto the weekly check in:

How far along am I? 34 weeks exactly.
Total weight gain: Still at 22 lbs! Go me!
Sleep: Pretty good overall. Strange dreams, though.
Movement: She's very consistent with her movements, and I can count on her moving like crazy from 9:00-10:00 pm every night.
Labor Signs: Nope!
Belly Button in or out? Still halfway out--weird, I know.
What I miss: This week it's sangria and beer. ;)
What I am looking forward to: Breastfeeding class, finishing Emma's room.
Weekly Wisdom: Didn't get any this week... anyone have any advice?
Milestones: Emma can recognize and react to simple songs--guess Daddy better pick up that guitar and learn some songs like he's been saying he'll do!
Other news? New car, yeah!
To Do List: Finish Emma's room, pack Labor bag, bi-weekly appointments will finish in a week (then onto weekly appointments), finish reading my breastfeeding and pregnancy books, install the carseat and get it checked, etc, etc, ETC!!!
