Well, the camera must have legs. It's missing again. I have plenty to update on though. It's been a busy week. I had a sonogram appt last Monday. The baby looks good and healthy. He was about 6 1/2 pounds. The Dr. told me to plan on him gaining about 1/2 pound every week until he's born. Now of course, this is all an estimate. But we are looking at having a 8-9 pound baby at 40 weeks. It was fun to see how much he's changed since our first sonogram. We were given a few sonogram printouts. He's so much bigger in these pics. Only his head fits on the screen, when before it was his whole body, lol. I have another appt this Thursday. Nothing special going on, they are going to do a strep test. They will, of course, measure me again to see how thing are progressing. This Saturday is a big day for us! Vance will be considered "full term". I'm not expecting anything, but if he's born early, he should have any health issues. YAY!
We had a big ice storm hit St. Joe last week. We didn't loose power at the house till about noon on Tuesday. We got it back on Thursday night. Thanks so much to Chris's Grandma, Grace, we had a warm roof over our heads. Power stayed on at the shop. But I wasn't able to work all week. There were so many power outages around town, I didn't have any appointments. Chris and I worked Saturday and only had 4 dogs show up. It made for a very short day at the shop.
Sunday, Chris and I had maternity pictures taken. I like what we ordered. I was a bit nervous about having pictures taken. But, I wanted to make sure I had something to remember all this by. I've taken my own belly pictures along the way, but these look much better, lol. The photographer said we should have the pics back by Christmas. I'll post them as soon as I get them.
Today I am back at the shop working full day, with a very full week ahead of me. I only have 12 days left of work left. Christmas is a week from today. I'm not ready at all. I haven't done any shopping. My evenings consist of me laying down or relaxing in the recliner. I am so tired by the time I get home form work, I don't feel like shopping much. I've had a hard time controlling my heartburn. I am going to ask about it this Thursday when I go to the Dr. If I had anything negative to say about this pregnancy, I'd say it was the heartburn. That about the only thing I have struggled with. It's been a wonderful pregnancy. I've had fun with all the little (and big) changes. I'm so excited about being a parent. I can't wait!
