Counting down days not weeks!!!

October 12, 2012
38 weeks

You know you're pregnant when... you drop something and have to leave it because you know there is absolutely no way you can reach it!
At the Whitecaps Soccer game 4-0 WIN!!!

We've had a good couple of weeks. Trying to stay busy, and not wonder if each day is the day PJ will come. I headed to Nanaimo last Thursday, and on Friday my Mom and I headed to Duncan to meet with Alex and Sage. We found a fabulous spot for lunch, sat outside underneath a canopy of grape vines. Sheldon headed over after work on Friday, the ferries were crazy busy, but as soon as you hit the island you know things are going to calm down just a few notches. 

Love you guys!

Ryan and Erin were heading over Saturday, so Sheldon and I headed out for a walk in the morning to kill some time. There are so many gorgeous houses in this area, and it's tough to find a house without an ocean/mountain view! It was so nice out on Saturday, we actually had Thanksgiving dinner on the patio! Some of us even got a bit of tan!!!

Sunday we had to work off all the turkey so Sheldon and I headed out for a walk around a local lake. Normally a 6 km walk would be a perfect start to the day, but carrying a bowling ball in your tummy changes the dynamics a bit, and I was feeling a bit sore by the end.

Quick photo op!
All in all we had a fabulous weekend on the island visiting my parents and celebrating Thanksgiving. Sheldon and I are always leave saying how spoiled we are, and this time we couldn't help but wonder if we'd ever be hungry again. (thanks Mom and Dad).

Thanksgiving dinner on the patio... Amazing!
Monday was another great midwife appointment! PJ is measuring right on track, the only concern was with how much water I am retaining (pretty swollen). Oh and when we were on the island we took a pool for when everyone predicts baby PJ will arrive ($10 buy in and $60 to the winner). The due date is October 27... I went with the 29th, and Sheldon went with the 20th, and it ranged anywhere from October 20th to November 2nd. I believe the Ontario family also started a pool, but I think they may have multiple guesses on a few dates, we will have to wait to see who wins! In all reality I hope Sheldon wins because that means we get to meet PJ soon!!!!!

Walking around Westwood Lake with my Dad's dog Ryley!
This week I have been busy making spaghetti sauce and enchilada mix to fill the freezer. Today I plan on cleaning out my closet, and possibly making some pumpkin cinnamon buns! 

Any way we look at it, it won't be long until PJ is here. Although I am feeling great, and enjoying being pregnant, I am overly excited and ready to meet this little being and start our family!
