Week 31

31 weeks! I know that the due date is just an approximate guess as to when she will be here but if she decides to bless us with her presence June 26th that is only 2 months away :)

I was thinking we should start a pool about everyone's guesses on when she'll get here. Feel free to comment on here, text me, or Facebook it and I'll start a calendar to keep track. :) I'm not sure if I can have more than one guess but I have two :) It may be on June 23rd (because it's the biggest full moon of the year and wives tales say lots of pregnancies are in a storm or full moon) or June 29 (because that's my grandpa Ray's birthday and that would truly be a sign).

Raelin, what are you up to this week?!?!
Well I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and it went great. Her heart rate was 143 and strong. The midwife said she was already head down and even though she can still move around she is most likely to stay in that position. Her being in that position makes sence because now I can feel her feet under my ribs, which is a weird sensation and hurts sometimes lol.  She apparently is the size of a bunch on asparagus and weighs about 3.3 lbs.

Hypnobirthing is going really well too. There are some really nice couples and the instructor is very informative and helpful. I know labor isn't going to be a walk in the park and things don't always go as planned but I feel confident and prepared as anyone can be and am looking forward to welcoming Raelin into this world, thanks to all the support and love I get from my husband, close family and amazing friends, I couldn't do this without you all :)

Things are going to start picking up soon because Raelin is almost here, Trev will be home soon and we have alot to do, not just finishing Raelin's room but other things as well so next week will be my last week volunteering at the Adult Day Care. I have enjoyed doing it every week and will miss seeing all their faces but I know they'll understand. I'm sure after awhile too that I can take her in and show her off to everyone :)

Next week I'm sure I'll have more pictures to share but here are the 2 I have this week :)

Here is a picture of the bassinet all ready to go in our room :) can't wait to see her in it! This bassinet has so much meaning and is one of Trev and my favorite things for her. Trev's grandpa (Papa) Koepke made it especially for Trev when he was born and was past to Stephen and all his cousins and now our daughter. What a wonderful heirloom to share :)

Trev and I want to thank Ron and Pam for the wonderful gifts we got in the mail from them the other day. I'm so in love with the bag and love that it has Raelin's name on it.

I hope everyone has a great week and I'm looking forward to sharing more soon :)
