Countdown to the Olympics!

At 33 weeks, Blueberry is now a pineapple, hopefully without the leaves (although sometimes it feels like the leaves are in there too poking)!  What do you think?  Does the pineapple look like it could fit in there?  Our little pineapple is 17 inches and 4.25 pounds.


As if there wasn't enough proof that this baby is mine (besides the ever growing belly), Blueberry is getting just as excited about the London Olympics as I am!  Each day, it seems to pick a new sport to practice for.  The other day, the baby was a gymnast practicing a very impressive floor routine.  Yesterday, Blueberry was a biker, pedaling the day away.  Today, we have a very active rower - not sure how far you can get in there though... 


Last week, we went to our Great Expectations class at the hospital (part 1 of 2) and got a lot of info about labor and delivery.  They showed us a video of people delivering naturally and with an epidural, taught us about rhythmic breathing, massage and stages of labor.  Next week we will learn more about delivery and take a tour of the hospital.  Tomorrow is another doctors appointment and a Bowser & Baby class - how to introduce your dog and baby to each other.  We will see what they have to say!

A rower? Blueberry IS an Asman! Man, this is going to be one tall baby. I bet s/he can't wait to get out so it can stretch its super long (but still little) legs!
