32 Weeks

I am now 32 weeks along! I can't believe there are now less than 8 weeks to go. I know it seems like time is going slow for us sometimes, but I'm sure these next few weeks will really fly by.

We've had a fun and busy week. On Monday, Grant got to attend his first Opening Day parade. We can't wait to take him to a game this summer. Hopefully the Reds won't be completely out of the race by the time he is born. On Tuesday, we celebrated our niece Clara's first birthday. That year went really fast, and made us realize even more how much we need to cherish every moment we have with our baby since time really does fly! She had a great time digging into her cake and opening her presents. She got a nice big wagon from my parents with an extra seat in there for Grant. I spent the rest of the week putting away shower gifts and washing his clothes, blankets, etc. I also got us registered with the pediatrician's office. And we officially joined St. Antoninus parish this week too--the same church/school that Doug attended growing up. We go there for church all the time since it is right up the street, and we wanted to become members before Grant was born. We will also schedule a baptism date sometime soon as well.

Today was our 32-week doctor appointment. Everything is still great! The doctor felt for the baby's head and found it facing down--right where is should be around this point--so he can be ready to descend when it's time to be born! He should stay in this position, which explains why his movements have been in pretty much the same place lately. I feel his feet up in my rib cage on my right side all the time.

This weekend we will be celebrating Doug's 30th birthday. While this may sound depressing to him now, hopefully this will be the best year for him! We will also be celebrating his sister Kristen's birthday and the baptism of our nephew Timmy. I am so honored to be his godmother, and we can't wait for the 2 little cousins to meet!
