34 week check up!

I always seem to be a week behind on these posts, because I am really at 35 weeks now! But, I wanted to post this and say Baby must have done one of those flips and was no longer breech at the 34 week appointment! Yeah! Hopefully Baby decides that is a nice position to be in and stays that way. It also gives me a better perspective as to where the body parts are now...those are feet kicking on the upper top right, got it! Also the hiccups continue, and they are way down low where the head is.

I am getting a bit more tired now and the heat is a killer. I don't think I have ever thought the heat was this suffocating before. I love to be outside, not this year. If I have a day where I don't have to go even to the car, I am happy. Course, it feels like it is the dog days of August already when I was hoping to miss those days seeing Baby should arrive before then. My luck that summer came on fast with those 90 degree temps this year.

Our friends visited from NYC last weekend and we had a blast. Luckily enough, we had really nice weather, not the crushing heat I was mentioning above. We spent Saturday afternoon at a winery and then headed into DC for some Ethiopian food Saturday night. Baby is getting lots of variety to eat these days! And yes, I have now been to a winery without drinking the wine. It wasn't as unpleasant as I thought. I just stuck to my sparkling lemonade and just enjoyed the food.

The one great thing about summer though is the fresh fruit and veggies!! I must say that watermelon and corn have never tasted SO good! I am just waiting for the tomatoes to come in then all will be complete with my diet for the rest of the summer.

I will be having the 36 week, and last, sonogram this Friday before delivery. If we get some good pictures I will post one and let you know how Baby is doing. We should be able to find out about how big Baby is and how all is progressing as we get closer to the big arrival. Until then...

I'm SO glad baby has flipped. Right where he/she belongs. It must feel good to have that one thing off your mind. Yay for wineries! Wish we could have joined you. I'm thinking we need a quick trip your way after baby gets settled in...

Wish we could share some of our tomatoes with you - our grape tomatoes are bursting off the vine, already! S. is eating them right out of the garden - best part of summer, really.

Much love and anxious waiting from KC.
