Week 30

10 weeks to go!! Steve & I are still on cloud 9 after our ultrasound last week...

The now nursery used to be the office and the closet that was in that room was the linen closet. I am super grateful that I have such a multi-talented hubby! He did a complete closet re-design and while we are still in the process of completion - he's off to an incredible start!

I now have new shelves & hanging space in the nursery and the guest room closet will soon be transformed into guest/linen closet. Did I mention he's building me a shoe rack - 4 complete rows of nothing but space for my shoe problem...I mean collection. :) As soon as it's completed I will share pictures of his accomplishment.

I am very excited for this.

Now onto what's going on with LM! This week LM should be measuring around 15.7 inches long & weighing almost 3 lbs! This is equivalent to a head of cabbage:

What I've read says that there should be a pint & a half of amniotic fluid surrounding LM, this amount will start to decrease as LM gets bigger & takes up more & more room. The eyesight is continuing to develop but has a long way to go. Even upon arrival LM will have 20/400 vision so if LM sees anything in the beginning it will only be the faces of those who get super close up - we're talking inches from his/her beautiful face. :)

Get ready for your close up! The exhaustion I felt in the beginning is beginning to creep back in...not too bad yet but I've definitely noticed I'm getting tired faster.

These dark mornings & early sunsets aren't helping either!

We had our visit with our doctor today & everything looks great! She was very pleased with my placenta moving - as were we - and has given me permission to resume most of the activities she had previously nixed. Back to yoga tomorrow - hurray!! She located LM's head while probing my tummy and had Steve feel it as well - crazy! And not so awesome when you have a full bladder - whew! Good thing is it's down where it's supposed to be and hopefully will stay there! :)

Here's this week's belly bustin photo...

Helloooooo Little Miller!

Other than closet re-design...the past week hasn't been too exciting which has been great!

This weekend will be a fairly busy one for the both of us. We have our CPR/First Aid class Saturday morning and then the 2nd Annual Grapes on Greenhill event! Looking forward to great food, wine & time with friends. :) Then we'll enjoy watching FSU beat out BY & wind out the weekend with the Redskins hopefully pulling one out in their game against the Rams...

C'mon guys - lets get it together!!

That's about it for us here - Love to all & have a wonderful week! GO NOLES!!

ps - Happy (early) Birthday to Ms. Ava Mae Valabek who will be making her appearance tomorrow!!

Congrats Rachel & Mike!!
