37 weeks & 3 days

Today was my final day at work...I am now officially on Maternity Leave!!!!!!!! Feels really good to be done...but also kinda scary cuz the money I will get is less than what I make, but I'm sure we'll survive somehow! They took me to lunch at Chili's, yum! And threw confetti on me as I walked out at the end of the day. HAHA Silly girls! I will miss them!

I had my 37 week check up today. She said the baby is measuring on track, the heart rate was about 130, and the doctor said she felt that she was at about 7 lbs already! Hopefully she isn't HUGE by the time she decides to come out! YIKES!

I think we are pretty much ready for her to come any time now. I need to finish packing my hospital bag, I've put a few things in already. I need to get the car seat installed in the car. There is cleaning around the house that I want to do also. So I think my maternity leave will be pretty busy even before she comes! I plan on taking some naps too....gotta get as much sleep in as I can NOW!!

Jay and Cara got married today around 1pm in Carmel. I can't wait to see pictures of their day and hear all about it! So exciting! We are all married now and have little babies on the way. This family sure has been blessed this year, in every way!!

Tony has some interviews lined up next week for new jobs...please keep him in your thoughts for a positive outcome.

I think that is about it for the update....here's a few pics! :)


































Here is a picture of the bassinet we got from Lisa, all set up in our room...ready to go! So...ANY TIME MIRELLA! LOL

36 weeks

One more week and she's considered FULL TERM! So any day now! :) So exciting!!
My last day at work is next Friday the 30th. It'll be sooo nice to just be home getting everything ready for her and relaxing...getting some rest in before my entire life changes! She's moving a ton, more than before. It's a lot of fun to watch and feel. I asked Mirella on my way to work yesterday if she would tell me when she was gonna come...she kicked...but that didn't really tell me anything. HAHA! Still aiming for 6/7/08!!

The girls (and guys) at work threw me a surprise shower last Friday. They gave me a rocker/glider chair for Mirella's room, a boppy pillow, and lots of clothes. I was totally shocked at all the stuff they got for me. It was so much fun! Tony put the chair together Friday night and I have already sat in it so many times. I love just going in her room and sitting in my chair. Can't wait till she comes!





We went to San Jose for Mothers Day weekend. We had a lot of fun, poor Tony had pink eye again so he was kind of miserable. We hung out at Chris and Veronica's Saturday night and they made a big ol bbq that was super yummy. Then we had a huggge buffet brunch at Faz Sunday for Mothers Day. We took some fun photo's with some cute name signs Aunt Peggy made for the babies.







Tony and I had some Maternity photos taken Saturday morning before we left for San Jose. They came out sooooooo awesome!! I love them.









There were a lot of others...but I won't post them all here. If you want to see you can ask me and I'll send the link. :)

That's the update for now!! 4 weeks to go!

Mirella's new stuff!

Here are some pics of Mirella's super cute stroller/infant seat combo. :) I love it so much!




Also here is the sweet bassinet that Lisa let us have!! :) Thanks Lisa and Ally!
