37 weeks and Bella making herself comfy on Mom's body pillow.
It's Adam and first off, I've got to give my beautiful wife some recognition for the way she's dealt with the highs and lows of pregnancy. We're almost to the finish line and if the roles were reversed, I wouldn't have made it past week eight. I don't know how you ladies do it. I've seen and read about things that are not suitable for this blog, but I can go on the record and admit that guys have it MUCH easier!
Up until now Elise has written nearly every line of every blog entry. When the baby comes, I'll be promoted from Facility Engineer & Concierge Services to Communications Director and you'll all be stuck with my bad sense of humor. So I guess you can consider this a practice entry which Elise will be grading later this evening.
We reached 37 weeks yesterday. It is crazy to think that within the next three weeks or so, we'll be bringing home a baby! Speculation is at an all-time high on when labor will begin and whether or not we're having a boy or a girl. At times it's torturous, but fortunately work has kept me busy enough to avoid going completely nuts. While we've been making a good dent in our to-do list (my list of course is referred to as a "honey-do" list), we've been trying to spend this weekend out of the house - and have consequently been eating our way through St. Louis. Yesterday, we had pizza (at an eco-friendly business that Prez. Obama has just ordered for the White House), milkshakes (as recently seen on one those crappy, yet addicitive Food Network shows) and brunch (TBD). There is no shame in our game and our feeling is to "get it while we can!" Did I mention that I've gain a few pounds during this pregnancy? I swear if I eat too much in one sitting, I can feel the baby kick me!
The next blog entry I write will be to share details on our newly-delivered Baby J with our family and friends. We can hardly wait. Until then...
-Adam
