Are we there yet?

Well...we got some MORE presents from my Aunt Ramona!! I've got everything washed and put away. I've got the guest room ready to go. I have the stuff we need to take ON the bag....just not IN it. So...we're getting closer. The nesting energy is gone though...my mind is still racing but I only have enough energy to point and grunt at what needs to be done. :) Sleep escapes me except in naps that sometimes come along...

I've been playing whack a mole with Zach...he pokes...I poke to figure out what body part it is...then he pokes somewhere else...it's a game that we play...I always lose though b/c I can't tell what is what. The only thing I can tell is that he is head down...and that is only b/c of the hiccups. He's definitely getting bigger though...I still think he needs to grow a little more b/c even though I feel like I am going to explode...it's probably not quite big enough.

We're sitting at 35.5 weeks...one month from today he's due (Aug 30). Crazy! So today I went to the doctor...and his heartbeat is all good...my belly is measuring a little small but the doc thinks that is because he is moving down...I filled out the preregistration forms today as well...it was the first time I signed stuff as a parent/guardian...and I filled out my information under 'Mother' and Chris' under 'Father.' Crazy!!! I had to put Zach's name as 'Infant Roberson.' Once he is born they recommend Chris goes down and fills out the few blanks I left with Zach's names, etc....I was like....NO WAY JOSE! First...he'd probably spell it Zachry or something that would make me cry (he spelled Smokey Smoky...)...Second...he'd probably end up naming him Bruce or something that would make me cry. So...here' hoping I can hobble my butt down to the 1st floor to fill it out. *fingers crossed!!*

Oh...and the doctor pointed out where Zach's head, butt and foot were...and I was like, wow...so I did my own examination and could not distinguish these body parts!!!!! All I feel is baby....not specific parts. :(

No room left in our house

Well....there is no room left in the house for stuff. The three of us (me, chris and smokey) huddle in the corner surrounded by stuff with no clear exit path to the door...or the bathroom for that matter! Oh wait...no...that's just a nightmare I had. Relaly we're not THAT full...but it is amazing how much stuff such a tiny person needs!! My mom pointed out that I had three mini showers last week. On Monday her team threw me a small shower and gave us some nice things...then on Wednesday my friends had a surprise birthday/baby dinner and gave us lots of good stuff...and then on Saturday my Aunt Kelly delivered her many gifts! Check out some pictures of Chris and I putting it all away.

Awww widdle I love Daddy socks!

This Batman outfit from Mom comes complete with a cape!

Aunt Kelly signed Zachary up for the babyhood of the traveling pajamas...these pajamas come with a little bag to store them in. :)

Check out Zachary's very first pair of Levis! And think of how cool he'll look in that M&M onesie!

My friend Melissa got this...another superhero outfit for Zach...it says Captain Adorable!!!

Smokey could not stand the thought of being left out of unpacking, so he came to play the role of official foot warmer.

No words needed. lol.

My friend Heath bought Zachary his mobile!! Unfortunately Smokey thinks all things stuffed-animal-like are his and apparently was molesting Pooh while we weren't looking...he was wet with slobber!!!! Poor poor Pooh. Smokey thought Chris was putting this mobile together for HIM...and was very anxious to play with the finished result. Good thing its out of reach.

Hiccups

I felt Zach's hiccups for the first time on the night we went to dinner for my birthday. Like I said, he move so much now that I don't take much notice other than a general smile or so. But here went my thought pattern: "Why is he lightly hitting me in the exact same place at such even intervals of time?" "Oh!!!! It must be he hiccups!" :) I'm blonde...and pregnant ok!!! Either way, it was pretty cool. My little person here gets hiccups!

Also....we were laying in bed and I had Chris' hand on my belly...and I guess Zach freaked him out!!! He's felt Zach move before...but not it is obviously more violent...and he said Zach pressed against him....which isn't unusual....he seems to be rather territorial and usually pushes against pressure he feels on my belly. Which probably explains why he acts up so much when I have to pee!!!
