Holy Time Batman!



Sheesh... time is just rushing along... we are already heading into week 34 , that means we are just 6 weeks away from seeing you! You seem pretty excited to get out.  You are pushing and rolling around a lot.  So much in fact that when I don't feel you moving, I get a little scared.  Sorry you aren't getting much sleep, heh.

I have a bit of a cold and a cough right now. I've been stressed at work and wouldn't you know it, something floated by and I got sick :( I've been drinking lots of water and trying to rest as much as possible. It seems to be getting better, but it's annoying anyway. Plus, it's gotten a lot warmer outside, and Sydney is having some flea issues so she's scratching a lot.  Seems like it's just that time of year, mid-June when things just get a little tough. 

Daddy also went through a stressful week... it was Beer Week here in Philadelphia, which means there

were at least 3 events that he and Uncle Nick did with a few restaurants in the city.  I went to 2 events myself.  Can't believe how much this week has blown up! I remember going to one of the first a few years ago and it was still pretty small.  Now there are lots of cities all over the country that do Beer Weeks. But, none that had 3,000 events..  wowza! You were super happy with the mussels we had for dinner on Sunday.  Seems like you are a seafood lover like me! Good thing :)

We met with a baby doctor (that we didn't really like) and have an appointment with another one next week (that we hope we will like) and I went on a tour of the hospital you are going to be born in, it is so nice!  I'm kind of excited to go to the hospital now! Maybe it's just because I am really excited to see you.  We have another pool party this weekend and I'm pretty excited about that as well.  Look, here's me a few weeks ago at the pool party:

swimmy!



The garden is coming along really well, looks like we are going to have a lot of tomatoes and a good amount of cucumbers and squash for us to eat in a while! I've also been stockpiling food for after you are born and Daddy and I won't have a lot of time to cook.  I made a bunch of zucchini/carrot bread and banana bread, we have a lot of soup bases and homemade chicken nuggets.  We also bought a bunch of healthy pasta and sauce (and macaroni and cheese, my favorite!).  Luckily, my job gives me a CSA share, which means we will have lots of fresh fruit and veggies throughout the summer and into November (yay!)

So, that's all the news that fits, baby! We are still thinking up names for you.  It's tough... we want to make sure you have a great name that says how much we love you and think you are the greatest.  Sydney and Marbles came with names, so we don't have a lot of practice.  It's okay, we'll come up with something amazing! I'm about to go play some music for you before I head off to work today.  Love you bunches!
