31 weeks BB

Dear Baby,
we're in single digit weeks until your arrival.. 9 weeks to go!
Last weekend we went by Auntie Ady and Uncle Lester for a most delicious brunch lime (below).  This is the most up to date pic we have of the three of us; I'm not sure what Mummy is telling Daddy, but it doesn't look nearly as interesting as what Auntie Ady is telling Auntie Onica.



Baby, you and Mummy were on call that weekend and had some busy nights... after brunch we went almost directly to the hospital from there.. we unexpectedly operated until 11:30pm that night AND made it to a 7am meeting the following morning.  Baby you were wide awake for most of the night time activities, so if you're a night owl, you know who to blame..

It's quite warm here this week which makes us wonder if you'll have an Alaskan or Bajan thermostat ..

On the home front.. look what happened last Monday.. big twirly things and a Bob Cat appeared in the yard to dig nine holes for the foundation..




Then they brought all this sand in, but had to cover it with plastic  so that when this weekend's rain is over, they can put in some steel bars, hopefully pass a foundation inspection and then pour some concrete.   We are so excited because this will probably be done in time for your 32 week birthday (next weekend).



Jake is also very intrigued..


So Mummy keeps meeting women who tell her how much they looooved being pregnant, and some of them she suspects weren't all that happy during that time.
So for memories sake, Mummy decided to take some pictures of all survival goodies she's currently using - below we have
- Miralax and Colace.. a delicious addition to any meal
- silicone breast thingees.. essential to the strapless dress even before nursing begins
- cocoa butter for the ever-expanding belly
- Preparation H.. if you don't know what it's for just enjoy the ignorance
... all displayed on a lovely Bella-band to keep all those pants up.



Mummy got so into it, she decided to take a picture of her medication stash.  For comparison, Granny took only Cod liver Oil when she was pregnant, but we are simply in a different time.  Mummy chose to display these items on the toilet because this is where she spends a great deal of time.

Here is an up close picture.. the labels on the right you can't read are Bifera for anemia and Nexium.


It's so intriguing that Mummy will forget all of this once she meets you.
