Here are some pictures of me at 35 weeks. I have gained approximately 25 lbs thus far. The doctor told me that my measurements and weight are good. She also told me to expect to go past my due date. Peter has come to accept this. I,however, am still holding out! I have several anecdotal stories to tell regarding my everyday life; unfortunately, by the time I sit down to type, I have pretty much forgotten all of them. If you see me two days in a row wearing approximately the same thing, don't worry, I just forgot what I had on the day before.

Everyone continues to ask me if I am "excited" because the due date is so close. Just to clarify, I AM VERY EXCITED! I know I may not show it exactly how everyone else does, but I'm not like everyone else. If anyone has any hints as to how I'm supposed to act excited, please let me know. I hate to disappoint.

I broke down and bought a few more maternity pieces. One pair of pants and two shirts. I'm hoping to be able to wear it through giving birth but everyday I feel bigger and bigger. So, we'll see.

Peter brought back several books in Slovak for the baby. I am attempting to learn a few nursery rhymes to say to her. We have books for the first few years. It should be fun!

I go to the doctor every week until the "big day" so expect more frequent updates. Hopefully.
