Almost time

Over the holiday weekend, we spent some time working on the house. Saturday night we went to Dave & Buster's to celebrate Kasie's birthday. You forget how much fun arcade games can be. We played racing games, Skee ball, etc. I even gave myself a work-out playing a full-size basketball shooting game. Let's just say "the belly" gets in the way of my jump shot. I also made Chris get in the photo booth, where they morph your pictures into a picture of your future child. It was pretty cute.

Sunday we went to Ikea looking for a TV stand for the new TV and whatever else we could find for the house. We bought a TV cabinet that ended up being too narrow for the DVD player and the other components. Oh well... I did get swollen feet from our long trip through Ikea.

Monday, one of the docs in our office invited people over for a pool party. It was nice getting together with everyone outside of the office. BUT... it wasn't a lot of fun watching everyone drink beer and swim, while my fat, sober butt sat poolside with her swollen cankles in the water. Yippee!

On a baby note...
panic mode has officially set in, as I realize our baby is coming any day now. While I am extremely excited, I just don't know how ready I am to put my entire life on hold. Things are busy at work, and I feel bad leaving them with extra work because of me. People at the hospital are becoming more and more suprised to see me in surgery, but I think it's great to continue suprising them. And other than a few hot spells when we have to wear lead aprons, it's been ok. I get really hot...really easily...I guess the hormones are going crazy. I feel fine overall. I have another OB appt tomorrow so I'll let you know how it goes.
