Do you all remember that bunny cake picture I posted on Friday? You know, the one that I sent to my Mom and asked her make it for me/baby G? Well, on Sunday - there was a knock at our door. It was my Mom and Dad... bunny cake in tow.
HOW AMAZING IS THIS?!?!?!?!
Well - it WAS very amazing. So delicious! Here is what the cake looked like on Monday afternoon.
Seeing today is Wednesday, you can imagine what is left of the cake now. Thank you so much Mom for the awesome BUNNY CAKE! I love it.
Along with the bunny cake, my parents also brought us a newly re-finished cradle. Not just any cradle, but a cradle that my older sister and I both used as a baby. My Mom did such a great job on it. Pictures to come.
They also brought this onsie...
Some of us think Baby G will be here before or on Easter! So cute. If he's not here by then...we'll use it as an under shirt.
This week I've been working from my home office...except for yesterday. I snuck into the office for a few hours after my 39 week check up. I figured that I was half way there anyways, so it wasn't too bad. I'm getting settled into my home office and now look forward to working from home each day. It takes getting use to - it's a whole new set up, but working out great. I even get to spend my days with this guy...
That is usually where you will find him during the day. When he sits on the stairs, he's able to see down our front door walk way. {Always protecting him Momma}
As I mentioned, I had my 39 week appointment yesterday. Everything is still going well. Baby G is perfect...hear rate and size are right on track. I am also doing great...about the "same" as last week. I've had a lot more cramps, but all are normal. I have my 40 week appointment next Tuesday (which is really 39w5ds) - so we'll see what happens. My Dr will only allow me to go one week past my due date.
Here is a picture from Monday...I sat on the deck in the sun most of the afternoon.
Here's to hoping that my next post will be to introduce our SON to the world!
Aww that cake is adorable---and it looks SO yummy, it made me crave chocolate cake! I must send my hubby on a run right now!! :) I can't wait for your baby news --- any day now! Any day!! You look fabulous by the way. I never carried my first to 39 weeks but I know for sure I didn't look that good at 37 weeks! I probably won't carry these guys to even 36 weeks but I do not look as good as you! You are glowing!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Amber!
ReplyDeleteI have a girlfriend with the same due date as me. She just had her twins (scheduled) c-section at 38 weeks. I'm hoping you'll make it to 36!!! You still look great. Hang in there girl.
You look great! So exciting to be so close to the end! If you are looking for natural ways to induce labor, I had 3 moms in my MOPS group (Mothers of Preschoolers) swear by Reflexology. I had no clue what it was but all 3 said they started having contractions the very next day. So I called a reflexologist- scheduled an appointment (4 days before my due date) and sure enough- started having contractions the next day and had my baby the following day. I know I was ready to try anything so just thought I would throw that out there for you! Good luck with everything.
ReplyDeletethat cake looks delicious!
ReplyDeletehow are you feeling today?
Just stumbled upon your blog and can't help but want to stay! (I just had my first in February and my two furbabies are Boxers!!)
ReplyDeleteI'll be checking back to see if G has made it safely into the world! Good luck!
