My Weekly Checkup, and a pic :)

Wow, my ticker says 8 days...and it's really 6!!! I'm still trying to get over the fact that we're in single digits, let alone under a week away!
Appointment was not too exciting...I do get to have an u/s on Monday morning though to get an estimated fetal weight! Judging by my doctors poking and squeezing, he's estimating that Carter is around 7 lbs already...little meatball! Because Carter has slowed down with his big movements, as well as the hands-on exam of the belly, Dr. P is pretty sure he's out of room, so he wants to get the EFW done to be sure that I can deliver this little boy vaginally, and I really hope he'll fit out the way he's supposed to! If anything, I get to see my baby boy one last time in my belly just a few days before I get to see and hold him in my arms! :::makes mental note not to forget to ask for pictures:::
Today is the first day of my maternity leave that I actually just laid on the couch and napped all day so far and it's been Heaven! Munchie, my Chihuahua, has been really happy about this as well, he just LOVES to snuggle on top of Carter's bump! I have been a busy nesting machine since my maternity leave started last Wednesday, so a day like today was MUCH needed!
I'm still on the hunt for a Halloween costume for the baby, everything I see just looks like it will be WAY TOO BIG for a newborn that's only 2 days old. We're going back to BRU this weekend to see what we can find. I can't seem to find the costume that Niky wants to be either :( None of the Halloween stores around here seem to have it...I think I may just order it tonight online and pay to have expedited shipping. We'll see though. I leave you with a pic from my picnic lunch with my BFF that we had by the Lighthouse on Wed...it was GORGEOUS out that day!
I was 38 weeks 4 days here!
