Just Breathe...

I'm a little behind blogging; sorry! But anyways, we went to the DR. for our 33 weeks check up last Tuesday on the 4th. BABY's heartbeat was strong and he was measuring "perfect" the Dr. told us. My blood pressure and sugar was good too so that's good news as well. Weight is now at 27lbs total, no concerns were there either from DR. It was a good visit and Matt & I both love anytime we can hear that heartbeat :) Next appointment isn't until 3 weeks out; May 25th. The DR. wanted me to get back on track with the weeks and appointments since I have been off with my weeks when going. Next appointment we will get an ultrasound to see the position of the BABY and make sure everything is good!

Lamaze classes started on the 4th as well. Matt went and bought me new pillows with blue pillow cases for a BOY :) He also got me a present (Vera Bradley flip flops) to wear to class. We didn't do much in the first class, we went over the history of lamaze and how it will benefit us with labor and everything. We did do some breathing exercises which were neat; Matt and I played around all weekend breathing and practicing "just breating and relaxing". Our last class won't end until 5 days before our due date so hopefully we will get to end the classes and BABY won't come until his due date or a few days after.

I know I talk about this at every post but as we get closer and closer to him being here I absolutely can't wait for him to be here but I am also sad that my FIRST pregnancy will be over. I love feeling him kick, squirm and watching my belly grow. I think I am sad because I know he will be here just a few weeks old and then I will blink my eyes and he will be 5 and starting school. Time goes by so quickly it seems like.

We also had our first BABY SHOWER the 1st of May. My mom, sister, Matt's mom and my friend Megan we're great planners and host :) It was all about monkeys and we had such a great time seeing friends and family and getting to catch up. BABY got so many things!!! After putting everything up we still need quite a bit of stuff but this shower helped us out so much, I couldn't be more thankful to everybody who gave us something!

So - Just a little update on everything. Here are a picture of Matt & I from the shower last week and my niece Tori at her recital; she already loves him so much!
