34 Weeks and 3 Days!

I figured I better post a picture of my belly before this baby comes! I am now 34 weeks and 3 days. Yay!!! I can't believe I am so far along! It has really flown by. We are seriously in shock around here...(Ev and I). The picture of our little boy was taken in January. If you look closely, you can see the front of his face and his arm is up by his face. I haven't had a sonogram since then...it's a little out dated. He's grown quite a bit since then. Two weeks ago my belly measured 27 inches. Yesterday, it was 33 inches!!! Wow....it's no wonder why I have been feeling huge as of this past weekend. He's growing like crazy! We still have no name picked out...several of you have asked...Ev and I are having a hard time finding names we like. He might just be the next Evan Jr. hahaha...just kidding. I don't like the idea of naming certain kids after someone. I don't want my other children to feel like they are not as special (not sure if that makes sense). Anyway, as soon as it's decided we'll share the news. My nurse told me yesterday that if I make it to Sunday (35 weeks) I can have the baby in the birth center rather than labor and delivery. The birth center is recently new and very nice! So I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I don't want to have him in labor and delivery. I've heard scary stories about that place. But it shouldn't be a problem (Brampton was about 4 days early).

That is so exciting! I am affraid that I am going to be so huge with this one but you look great. I am sure that the labor and delivery anywhere would be better then delivering in the military. I am really nervous about that. Congrats you are so close.

You look so cute Stephanie!!! I can only hope to be as cute as you in 10 weeks :) Picking a name is so stressful, we're having a hard time too, but i guess we have a little longer still. Anyway, you're adorable!

Hooray!! I hope he holds out for another few days -- good luck on picking a name. It took us two days AFTER he was born to figure out Ben's name. Nurses begin to nag if you don't pick a name quickly! :)

Wow! Steph, you look amazing being so far along in your pregnancy. You are one beautiful pregnant lady!

I can't believe it's already been that long!! Wow time does fly. You look great by the way!! You'd better let me watch Brampton and have him over to stay when the baby comes, or at least let me make meals. You know how I like to make food!
