Just an update

I had another doctors appointment this week and things went well. All of the tests came back great and I have only gained 20lbs!!
Andrew arrives home on Sunday and we are planning to make arrangements to go to the hospital to get a tour of the maternity ward and meet some of the nurses.
With Christmas around the corner we have been receiving parcels in mail. Well my sister Andrea has decided that the baby needed a name if she was to send him a Christmas gift so she has called him Ralph. I must say, I got a good chuckle when I saw a present addressed to "Baby Ralph". When people ask me if I have picked out a name yet I say that his name is "Ralph" and they always give me such a strange look. Its hard to keep a straight face. Speaking of names we do have 3 picked out but are going to wait until we see his little face to properly name him. Just don't ask us what the names are!!!!!
Baby Ralph is lying sideways in my belly and instead of getting little kicks, my belly has started taking on new shapes. Its so neat to sit there and watch as the belly moves around. I can also feel little body parts, just not sure which parts they are!

Since my health is a little better this week and I'm not feeling as much pelvic pain as I did before I decided that now is probably the best time to get some things done around the house. I finally finished painting the nursery (trim, closet and door) and as soon as the New Year hits I will be getting some molding, more trim and light fixtures to finish everything off. As well as all of the rest of the goodies that I need before the little man makes his way into the world.
