Full-term!

Well last Monday I was 37 weeks pregnant which is considered full-term! Everything checked out great at my Dr. appointment. I'm swollen and uncomfortable, but nothing out of the norm for this late in pregnancy. I will be going every Monday now until this little one decides to make an appearance. At my 36 week ultrasound the doctor estimated that the baby was 5lbs 12oz and projected he/she would be about 7lbs 8oz at 40 weeks. He says he usually gets the size within a half a pound and I believe him, but I'm a little skeptical of his guess on this one as Payton was 7lbs 6oz two weeks early. I'm hoping he is right on as that's a great size to deliver. He did say that the head is measuring a little small (music to my ears!) and that the baby is long which doesn't surprise me. Payton was/is long and I've been telling Kole this baby feels long and cramped in there. Still no signs of preeclampsia, which is good news and my doctor doesn't expect that to change. Still no signs of labor either. At this point it's a total waiting game since I was induced with Payton there is no telling what my body will do naturally. I'm hoping for sooner rather than later as I am ready to be finished being pregnant, meet this new little one and find out if we will be having another little girl or if we will get to experience a baby boy, and for Payton to get to be the big sister we have been telling her she gets to be for months now. Send labor vibes our way!!

Sprinkle

This past Sunday Kelsey and Jenn thew me the most beautiful "Sprinkle" brunch at Brasserie Ten Ten in Boulder. A sprinkle is a mini baby shower for a second baby where everyone "sprinkles" the mom with love and small gifts for baby #2 (or 3 or 4...). The girls went above and beyond with a handmade invitation, picking a restaurant with amazing food, baking yummy treats, and making the table look absolutely gorgeous. I felt so sophisticated, loved, and celebrated as we sipped mimosas and lattes, ate croissants, crepes and other fancy brunch items, chatted about this new little one and opened precious gifts. Thank you Jenn and Kels for such a wonderful Sprinkle for baby #2, you have impeccable taste and I am so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends that would take time out of their busy lives to plan and attend an event for me. I love you all!!

The menu - YUM

gorgeous flowers, the theme was grey and yellow inspired by Jenn's favorite nursery on pinterest (I think)

getting spoiled

I thought I got pics with everyone who came, but I missed a few, Jess and Marjie came to celebrate with me as well. A little over 4 weeks left, I am excited (and so ready)!
