36 Weeks: NINE months!

It's actually here! And what's even better is that I don't have 4 more weeks, I have 3 :) I went to the doctor this morning, and everything looks great. I am starting to swell like I did last pregnancy, and I'm very much gaining water weight. So much for gaining less than my pregnancy with Tyler! I've already exceeded it according to the scales this week, but I know it's mostly water weight. The swelling is in my fingers, ankles, and the back of my calves. It's so bad that I can't even bend my knees all the way. Needless to say, my legs are definitely much larger right now! My blood pressure is fine, so there is no reason to be concerned with the swelling and fast weight gain. Although, I seem to have a real problem with gaining 4lbs over night...

This past Saturday, a friend of mine came over to clean my house for me. I have declined her offer for a while because I felt I could do it, but I really can't at this point anymore. She cleaned every inch of my house, did all my laundry, helped me get organized, and helped put together the nursery. It was so much help! Now, all that's left is for Josh to hang a few items, and it will be ready.

So, I guess all that's left is announcing the name...
