35 Week Update

Only about a month left of the pregnancy to go. It's very exciting and scary at the same time. We keep asking ourselves are we ready for two kids. But ready or not it's going to happen. We've been trying to tell Zack about babies more. We point to my stomach and say baby, and every once in a while he'll point and tell us baby as well. While looking at books/magazines he always points at babies and says Baby. So he's understanding that babies are smaller people. So hopefully that is a good sign of what is to come.

This week I started the weekly doctor appointments. We did the strep test (I don't know the full name). It's a test to make sure that if I have the strep virus (not the throat kind) that the baby would need special mediation/treatment after he's born. The doctor checked to see if I was dialated (which I'm not) but said that my cervix was soft so I shouldn't go past 42 weeks... um thanks!

Other then that there isn't really much to update. The baby is moving just fine. We still haven't picked a name... yikes! We keep suggesting names to each other but one or the other doesn't like the name. So far we have Gavin, Jordan and Justin on the table, but nothing is for sure yet. And it's funny because people say that they wait until they see the baby to pick a name, but we were wondering how they do it. Do we just call him different names until he responds.. LOL. Names are so hard because it's so permenent. Maybe we are secretly waiting to see who wins the Superbowl before we pick a name; in that case it may be Peyton or Drew.
Hmmm.
