lots of updates

Well, I have a lot to share since it's been a few weeks since I last updated this thing! Since then I've had 2 more showers at Micah's work and my work... I had my LAST day of work on Friday... and I am now officially "full term." COME ON JOHN MARK! I really can't complain. I have definitely been more uncomfortable than I am used to- and I definitely don't sleep as well- but it hasn't been anything that I would die because of!

Here are a few pictures from my shower at work. It was a fun day. Everyone brought food and we ate lunch, then I opened presents. I got a ton of really good stuff- lots of cute outfits, our pack and play, diaper bag, a lullaby cd... those ladies there are so great! While I'm on the subject of HHBC, I have to say that my last day there was last Friday. It was such a bittersweet day. I'm so excited and ready for my baby boy to be here and to stay at home with him... but I have loved working there. I am definitely sad to be leaving all my friends there. But don't worry- I'll still come around. I know you all want to hold and meet John Mark when he gets here!

In baby related news, he's still not here... :) But we do have progress. Last doctor's appointment I was dialated to a 1 and 50% effaced. If that's too much information, sorry- but that's just part of this whole "having a baby" thing, so deal or stop reading! I'm hoping there will be even more progress at this next appointment. There will definitely be some weight gain... all I've done is eat for the past week- going away lunches, anniversary celebrations, hanging out with friends... they all involve FOOD!

Speaking of anniversary celebrations, Micah and I decided to go ahead and celebrate ours early since we don't know when John Mark will make his appearance. So we went out on Friday night and had PF Chang's and then watched Pirates 2. It was fun just to hang out with him and relax.

Well... I guess that's all I've got. I'll keep this posted with updates as we near the BIG DAY! Now I'm off to do baby laundry and pack a bag to take to the hospital...
