36 weeks

I had my 36 week dr checkup on Wednesday and all went well. Baby boy is doing great. His heartrate was good and I'm measuring a week ahead as always. I was tested for strep b and checked for dilation. I am 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced already. I'm hoping this means I don't go overdue since I was never dilated until the very end with the girls! Anxious to see if I progress by next week's appt. Dr said baby's head is right down on my cervix so guess that's why it feels like he's tunneling out, he's trying to! I've had a ton of hip, pelvis and leg pain.. especially at night. I bought an exercise ball to sit on and it's really helping. Supposed to help with dilation too so we'll see if it works! Here's a picture Mom took of me on Sunday when I was 35.5 weeks.



and a few other pictures....
Can you believe this cute little honey won't be my baby anymore pretty soon?


We went down for Tyler & Madi's bday party this weekend and also got to run over to Pedersen's for a surprise bridal shower for Jody. Here's the kids table at lunch.. Chloe, Brenna, Casey, Bennett, Hailey, Taylor, Axel & Addy.


Here are Grandma & Grandpa with the girls on Sunday morning.
