34 Week Update



Not much new to report other than the fact that I feel as though I am growing by the minute! Baby is still as active as ever and weighs about as much as a cantaloupe. According to babycenter.com he/she should be gaining about a half-pound each week and has almost reached its full length. I've been noticing a lot harder movements now that the baby is so much bigger, I even tend to get little feet stuck under my ribs. Sleeping has become quite the chore but apparently that's called preparation for when he/she actually arrives. Now that events have started for me, I am absolutely exhausted by the time I get home and spend most of my free time on the couch relaxing or napping. Karl had his first flag football practice tonight so his schedule is getting busier as well. We completed our baby class last week at the hospital and a lot of the big things we were worried about doing have been done so let the waiting game continue. We still have some things going on over the next few weeks including a trip to LA for Karl for his friend's wedding, the start of Purdue volleyball and football for me, Karl's 10 year class reunion, and weekly doctor visits to keep little Ringo in check. We are doing our best to enjoy the time we have left until baby makes 3.

It sounds like Ringo is either practicing twirling or blocking! Congrats guys, by the way, we will be in Lafayette the day or two before the Northern Illinois game for the Alumni Leadership Conference. Crystal and I miss you guys.
