The room is almost done

Thanks to a consignment store, my sister, my mother, and the landlord of our taekwondo school, Nathan's room is nearly complete. It's getting so much harder to wait now that the room is sitting there empty, waiting for him to arrive!

Week 32


We had the final ultrasound and everything is doing great. Nathan has turned to put his head down in position for delivery right on time. He's kicking stronger than ever before, and now scenes straight out of Alien are happening every night. We're trying to catch that on video and if it happens, we'll put it on here.

Surprise Shower!

So today, the ladies from the taekwondo school threw a surprise baby shower for Mel at the church that some of them go to. They did a great job putting it on and we got some wonderful stuff for Nathan. We were treated to a cake with a little black belt teddy bear on top made of cake.

Things are starting to get very real for us as we put away all the clothes and things they gave Nathan. Now with the baby showers beginning and her belly moving on a nightly basis, this is going to be very soon!

All is well


So, Mel had to drink the most wonderful thing she's ever drank before in her life. (Please notice the dripping sarcasm). Another rite of pregnancy down. The glucose test came back normal. That means no more over-sugared water. YAY!

So far, the pregnancy is going so well. Every night she is getting attacked from the inside now. We definitely have a little black belt baby in there. Now you can even see the belly move.

The kicking giraffe

So another preparation for the baby is complete. Nothing like a karate kicking giraffe!
