Showered and so happy!

Thank you all so much for your suggestions in the last post. I reread the comments many times and I think we are nearly organized...um, sort of.  I have the mental list prepared and we have nappies and wipes so if he comes early we have the basic items ready. Darin and I also took a breastfeeding and parenting class which was very insightful and helpful too. My last day at work was last Friday and since it has been a long weekend, it still hasn't sunken in that I don't have to go to work tomorrow or any other day that matter for the next six or so months. Really??!! That feels great.

Dudley is getting bigger and heavier and has been experiencing hiccups pretty often...now that's cute. Evidence of the growing is shown in photos below.

36 weeks, baby.

and the next photo is courtesy of Martine! Beware - it showcases a lot of belly!

but look....I can still see my toes

Yesterday our sweet friend Martine hosted a baby shower for dudley, darin and I. We had a great time spending the hot, hot afternoon with friends enjoying good food and conversation with friends. We also scored some pretty amazing stuff for dudley and darin was lucky enough to score a superdad tshirt (shown in photo below) from C&J.....he hasn't taken it off since he got it!

You can see other photos from the shower on Frangipani.

And seriously I have been knitting, but I haven't fully completed anything apart from these great booties. Does anyone need another reason to have a baby??!!
