New news

I am so incredibly excited today! Lots of new things.
First AJ started school this semester and is enjoying his classes even though he's a little stressed about the baby coming right in the middle.
I finally finished all 3 of the cross stitch patterns I was working on for Treyson's room and framed 2 of them, as well as all of the crochet projects I was working on.
His hand quilted blankets are done as well except for a few my mom is working on (which is like 5 because we take too many trips to the fabric store and find new cute things everytime that we MUST have).
His crib, dresser, and changing table arrived today! I am so incredibly excited about this because its like the last big things that we needed before setting up his room and also because this is a big sigh of relief for me. We also got a great deal I think, and found the perfect color for it.

I am starting my appointments every two weeks now and am completely thrilled and completely terrified that we are only a little over 7 weeks away from my due date. I think I'll be okay if he decides to come a little late though. A few days over due is okay by me and especially for AJ, because that would put us right in the middle of his spring break. We could be so lucky though.
Heartburn has been my constant companion the last few weeks so now my midwife is telling me to start taking Prilosec which is ok by me if it works and the good news is that its safe for baby as well.

I am really excited for my baby shower coming up! I invited a ton of friends that I haven't seen in forever and I hope they all can make it because I'm so looking forward to seeing them! Also its going to be really fun! Jungle theme and all that, and of course my mom is making some delicious food.

Its been really fun to watch our little son get bigger and bigger in my belly and even more fun to watch him move! Its amazing for me to be able to feel him all of the time but I think its been especially fun to watch AJ as he gets to experience his first tastes of fatherhood. He treats me so well and is even starting to poke and prod the belly (he would barely touch it at first, like it was made of glass). Sometimes we both feel really overwhelmed and anxious about parenthood but its so much fun to have moments when we are both really excited as well. I know I have a greater connection to the baby right now, but I'm sure as soon as he is born I'll have to beg for my turn to hold him.
I love AJ with my whole heart and could not be happier lately. He has been so loving and caring this whole pregnancy and even deals with my craziness as it comes and goes. It must be so frustrating for him when I am angry or super emotional over the dumbest things, but he's been so solid and supportive. I love him so much. He's going to be an amazing Dad.
