A shout out to our friends and family in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Our friends Betsy and Travis had these baby gifts specially made for tourney time. I think they should market their Tubby (Smith) Time/Town and Bo (Ryan) liever infant gear! Of course, BOliever will sell a lot more! Thanks Bets & T-Rex!

34 days and counting!
It's been an eventful week! Lee was on spring break this week. Unfortunately for him, the weather wasn't very nice. Fortunately for me and BP, he was confined to our condo putting "baby stuff" together! As you can tell by the picture below, he's gotten a little too into the "nesting" process. This is one of BP's towels if Big Daddy doesn't steal it! (Thanks Bart & Billie!) On Tuesday we had a Dr.'s appointment and had our first "hiccup." After a high blood pressure reading and too much protein in my urine, I was sent to the lab for an exciting 24 hour urine collection. The Dr. assured us that BP was great; his heartbeat was super and he responded to her pressure. We asked what worse case scenario would be... (note to self: don't do that again) and she said that if the levels were the same that she would consider inducing me. I don't know if that helped me focus on my needs for the next two days or made my blood pressure even worse. Lee eased my worries when every day I came home to a new completed project. After labs were completed, I returned to the Dr. Friday and everything came back perfect and my blood pressure was fine! Whew! I still have swelling and the sciatic nerve pain is in full force, but I feel great! I have four days of school before my spring break! I am looking forward to getting everything in place then. We hope to be moving out of our condo soon so we are not ordering the crib and nursery decor quite yet. We have; however, converted a spare bedroom into a temporary nursery!
Big Daddy's a little on edge after completing his weekly projects! He keeps yelling Spring Break 09! We purchased a rocker and converted our book shelf into a baby storage center. Lee also put together the Pack N' Play/Bassinet to make sure everything was working!
We may not have diapers yet but our baby's bed is ready (Thanks to my good friend and colleague Jenn who is lending us her precious bassinet). Lee had quite the time with the skirt! I wish I could have been a mouse in the corner when he was putting it together. You can barely see it but below the bassinet is an afghan my grandmother knitted for a future great grandbaby before she passed away.
This picture was taken looking out the nursery window! We could actually see the shuttle after take off from the Kennedy Space Center, about 3 hours away from WP.

Baby Shower, Pool Party - March 7th
34 Weeks
At 34 weeks, 85% of my pregnancy is complete. I've escaped several ailments of pregnancy but swollen feet is not one of them. By the time I get home from school, my feet are grossly huge. Lee massages them for me despite his dislike for feet!. :-) I am definitely feeling pregnant these days but I still feel great!
I don't know how many more "skin" pictures I have left for you!

32 Weeks!
We hit the 32 week mark Saturday so we celebrated by going to Miami with friends. B.P. has now been to an NBA, NHL, NFL & MLB game. I hope he isn't afraid of heights because we couldn't get much higher! Fortunately, Lee's friend (who works for the Heat) hooked us up with great seats in the 2nd half.
Stay tuned for a growing belly picture!
