38 weeks

Well Brady will be here by this time next week. I had an ultrasound at 37.5 weeks. I also had one with Colby at the exact same time. They weighed the exact same amount (7.5 lbs). So, I guess they would be the same size. But, Brady is coming 2 weeks earlier than Colby did. I had an appointment on Monday and I was not even a fingertip dilated But, I guess I don't need to be since I'm planning on a C-section. Of course it would have been nice to try natural. I've been having ultrasounds and fetal monitoring every week and everything has been looking good. I really feel that he will be a healthy baby.

My replacement at work started last week. So, I haven't been doing much work myself. They gave me a shower last week. That was totally unexpected. We have everything all ready for him. I started packing bags last week. I've had a couple of visual problems. Hopefully there won't be anymore.

Colby's shingles healed very well. He had started waking up at crazy hours (4-5am) really to play. He used to be about 6:30. I think he may be back to 6:00 now. But, he has started not liking baths anymore. I don't know what the problem is. He almost seems scared to get in the last few nights. Hopefully just another phase. He is so silly now and is saying so much. He counts 8,9,2,8. Don't know what happened to the other numbers. He can say and recognize lots of letters. Some he even sounds out. He can be a picky eater sometimes. He likes to have his Nemo (goldfish crackers) when he wakes up. He kisses my belly and gives Brady ti tights every night. I have a feeling he will still want to do that after Brady is no longer in there.

Rowdy and I are both getting over sinus problems. I'm afraid Colby may be getting it. There should be a rule about pregnant people and their families not getting sick. We have too much other stuff to deal with.
Hopefully I'll get to post again before he comes. I just thought I'd finally update this blog since I had a little time. Oh, almost forgot the 38 week pic.
