All Spruced Up

Hello out there. Hope you all like the aesthetic changes I made to my blog. This new template thingy on blogger really lets you personalize your format. I highly recommend it. The picture at the top I took while on a Marlow family vacation in Canada last year. Why you may ask am I changing my blog now....well when you have been home from work for almost 3 weeks and have done everything else you could possibly think of for the arrival of your new baby (that hasn't come yet) you "spruce up"....everything. Some things I have done:
  • made curtains for the living room
  • finished my wedding scrapbook (that I started 4 years ago)
  • updated my blog
  • made jewelry for a friends bridal party
  • actually have been caught up on my laundry
  • almost finished crocheting a baby blanket
  • cleaned, cleaned, and cleaned some more

So to those of you mothers out there who know what it's like to wait for the baby to come...have any suggestions of what else I could do to keep my mind off of being sooooooooo pregnant?

Baby Caleb

Here are the baby Caleb pics. The top one of the whole Roselius family, but I like the bottom one better cause you can see more baby face and his dark head of hair! I think he's gonna look like dad! CONGRATS Beth and Jesse!

38 weeks and 31 weeks

So here are Rebecca and I posing in all our pregnant glory. We had breakfast this morning and I couldn' t pass on a picture opt. We are in the very blue nursery. She doesn't know what the sex of her baby is but I found it quite funny when she rubbed her belly on mine like the babies were able to feel each other:) I am so excited for her. Although it seems that everyone is pregnant these days! I added Baby Block's blog to my tool bar. Check it out if you already haven't. I don't have any pregnanty pics of Lisa yet. Oh yes and my friend Beth Roselius just had her baby (due June 10 born May 23) and he is adorable. Will post picture of baby Caleb ASAP. When is my baby coming!!!!

Toe Show

My mom and I went to get pedicures the other day and they said I could get writing on my toes....so here they are proclaiming the question everyone seems to ask. It's hard to read from far away but this picture is pretty cool:) Plus I get to look at my feet all the time so that is good. Although lately they look a bit like pillows attached to elephant ankles. The swelling has begun. Not my favorite part of pregnancy. They are not too bad but I can't imagine women who are pregnant in the winter and have to wear real shoes that tie! Flip flops all the way baby. I have't tied my own shoe in months! I am very ready to be unpregnant. I want the baby to come early because I am sooooooooo uncomfortable but not sure I am ready for the daunting responsibilty of being a mom either. Oh well I am getting stuff done around the house. This will be my second week off from work and I am loving it! I get so much done at home and I can nap when I feel tired. The doctor said my belly is measuring quite big for how many weeks I am. ( I am 37 weeks and my belly measurement last week was 41) I am anticipaiting a large child. Kinda scared about delivery:) Ok that's it for now...everyone pray that the baby comes SOON!
