Guess what?

A baby belly grows A LOT over a five-week period at the end of a pregnancy.
38+ weeks:

Aside from that revelation, there's actually not too much to update from the last five weeks (the time between our maternity pictures and now). We had previously filled our calendar with all sorts of fun things upon our return to SoCal but then had to lay low per doctor's orders. Luckily, laying low around here isn't so bad thanks to beautiful sunny weather and swimming pools!
The golf course on base has also provided quality entertainment. Matt has taken full advantage of twilight hour rates after work and I've tagged along, applauding his skills and doing super-exciting things like taking pictures of my toes and baby bump. Good times, eh?
Hooray for cheesy pictures! And for being able to see my toes... if I lean over just so :)
Thankfully, things are going well with the pregnancy these days. And since I'm full term now, we were even cleared to head out for a few dates this weekend and last. Other than that, we're just enjoying our time together as we wait for our little guy to arrive. He seems rather comfortable in there, though, so we don't really expect him to come very soon. But we're ready just in case!
Matt came home from attending a daddy class on base, hunted down our old teddy bears, and promptly showed off his new swaddling skills. See? Totally ready.

  10. Swaddling skills are so important. Matt is cruising into this roll of dad! When number 2, 3, and 4 come along you will be able to pass them around like a football they will be so well wrapped and comfy! tee hee
    My nurse with Justin taught us how to roll him up like a burrito and Kyle and Angie could just carry him around safe and sound! Love the pictures:)
