Where is all of the time going?

This week has been packed with all sorts of errands, appointments and projects. I am absolutely worn out! Yesterday Jesse and I went to my routine OB appointment. The doctor says that everything is going well. The baby's heartbeat was in the high 150's and at one point in the low 160's which is good, and she also said that he is "a good sized baby." Now of course I was assuming this by my abdominal girth, and everyone's comments about how big my belly is, but now it is official that Paul is a healthy sized boy. We couldn't be happier! The time is going by so fast. We were reminded by the doctor that it is time to sign up for classes that will start in January, and we need to research a pediatrician/family doctor for when the baby is born. Along with researching all of this stuff a bunch of other questions have come up about insurance coverage and getting the baby signed up under our plan, so many phone calls have been made. We are starting to feel a little more in control of all of this planning stuff though now that we are getting all of our planning questions answered.

We are planning on spending Thanksgiving this year with Jesse's dad and a few of his friends that we haven't actually met before. We always look forward to this time of year when we can spend special times with friends and family and eat a bunch of delicious food. This year we are bringing broccoli salad so far, and of course anything else that is needed. I am hoping for a slice of pecan pie at some point just because it sounds sooooo good. Funny thing is, I have never really craved pecan pie, but wow it has been sounding great lately!

Jesse's birthday is coming up soon. He will be 33! I can't believe it! I of course want to surprise him with something but he really doesn't like surprises that much so this year I promised him that I would tell him what I am getting him. His birthday is always right around Thanksgiving so I am hoping to separate it from the holiday as much as possible.

Well that about wraps things up for this week. Talk to all of you soon!
