Lots of Movement

Hi all! Well, I've had my last ultrasound last week and all is well. The baby's head is down and ready to go. Also, it weighs 5 pounds! I, on the other hand, have gained 20! But, what's in a number... I feel great and, apart from my recent lack of physical activity, still look pretty good!

Did everyone know that my best friend Jenny Gannon is pregnant too?! Well, she's six weeks behind me and we couldn't be more excited. We bought a home Doppler machine so we can listen to the heartbeats. It's amazing how different babies can be in 6 weeks time! I know when they come out that won't be much of a big deal, but right now, she's much smaller than me!

She gets back from a three week vacation this week, so we can't wait to see them! I'm sure I'll put up some pics soon of the both of us.

Well, the crib is put together and the baby's room is looking great. I just need to get my glider and a little side table for reading books and I think we're all set! Oh yeah, and diapers and diapers and diapers!

I think we're going to have our friend Stephanie do a mural on the wall behind the crib. She's our delivery driver at The Truffle and did that amazing window painting at the shop. We're not sure what she'll paint yet, but hopefully she'll have some ideas!

As i type, the baby is doing some sort of yoga or something! I'm utterly amazed at how much this little Lawler kicks and moves and rolls and turns. Sometimes it feels as though it's got it's little toes between my ribs!

I'm really enjoying being pregnant. I think I'll miss the little one in my belly, but probably won't have any time to really think about it because I'll be holding and feeding and changing... What I am looking forward to is laying on my back and belly. Oh boy! The idea of getting a massage while laying properly on my belly is just dreamy.
