Katie at 34 weeks (Baby Room is making progress and Beckton is a Canteloupe)


34 weeks and we're moving right along! Beckton is about the size of a canteloupe! This weekend another milestone ... baby furniture arrived, we put it together and the room is almost done. I was so emotional this weekend while we were arranging the room. I guess I just couldn't really believe how one minute it looked like a storage unit and the next it was the room where Scott and I will bring Beckton home to for the first time. It's a pretty cool/strange feeling. Obviously anyone who has done this before gets it but I swear until you go through it once you just can't know how the emotions will take over. It's exhilarating. I'm starting to get really excited and really nervous at the same time. I cannot wait until the room is 100% complete and I can just sit back in the rocker and await Beckton's arrival.

This weekend (March 27th) we also celebrated Scott's 28th Birthday ! This was his last before becoming a Dad so we wanted to make it count! We headed to his favorite restaurant El Toro for dinner with family and friends and then topped off the night with a few rounds of bowling! Everyone had a blast and I think we sent Scott off well into fatherhood.

We also had a doctor appointment and Beckton appears to be doing well! Strong heartbeat and measuring right on target. No signs of any issues which is THRILLING!!! We should learn more next week at our next appointment ...
