Today is an exciting day - we are going to a pumpkin carving party at my parents house and all the close cousins will be there so it is sure to be very noisey, messy and lots of fun!
I'm on 34 weeks of pregnancy now and ready for it to be done! We are trying to get things ready around the house, my mom has been helping me clean cupboards and closets, she is much better at throwing away things then I am - I'm a pack rat! Zander's room is starting to come together, hopefully by the end of this week we will only have the flooring left to do! It's amazing how things seem to be happening so fast! The doctor told me that I should be getting my bag packed as he seems to think the baby could come anytime or the baby might wait until December! I hate not knowing and constantly waiting! I'm definitley as big as a house. Zander loves to talk to my belly, especially to yell "wake up" and then to tell me the reason the baby is hiding in my tummy is because it's "scared". That's still his favorite word - everything is "scary".
Zander gave us quite a scare himself the other night. He was bouncing on the trampoline and landed funny and knocked his breath out and couldn't move his neck. So after a very fast ride to the hospital the nurses decide to put a hard neck brace on him until the doctor arrived, well of course they didn't have one that fit him right and then there were 4 nurses in there and he was so overwhelmed that he was just screaming, and of course screaming my name! so they finally put a soft brace on him and let me hold him. The doctor said he just got some bruising on his neck and tail bone and would be fine so that was a relief! What a horrible experience though! Zander is now sure that he does not want to go back to the doctor, although that hasn't changed him to be more careful, he still climbs on everything and runs everywhere.
But I better go - got to get ready to carve pumpkins! hope everyone has a happy halloween!
