Dreaming Again
I've been having labor dreams again. I don't remember much when I wake up but I know that they are about labor. Sharon always gets in trouble in them too-those are the parts I remember. The one I had Saturday night, Sharon wouldn't answer any of her phones. I knew from a friend that she was with one of our other friends and she was purposefully not answering her phones. I guess that's my anxiety coming out. I think that dream wiped me out because I had no energy yesterday.
I can't wait to see this little guy, hopefully this is the week - WEEK 40!!!

My last day
Today is my last day of work until October. I am excited to relax, rest and veg the next few days before my parents arrive on the 16th. Sharon's excited for lattes every morning! I will probably do more nesting at home until Cooper gets here, at least I'll be in the comfort of my home.
The update on Cooper, I don't have one. I'm getting contractions everyday, nothing significant or regular. Many people say he looks like he dropped, I can't tell. I am waddling more so maybe that's a good sign.

Weekend of Projects
This weekend was full of nesting projects. Sharon was up at the crack of dawn Saturday and Sunday working on multiple projects. I slept in both days and it felt so wonderful. We are in a painting mode right now, trying to get things painted before Cooper is here. Sharon stripped, sanded and primed the front door and will paint it this week. She also primed one of the exterior windows to paint this week. She put up a privacy screen in our backyard for our neighbor and our piece of mind. With our new deck we can really see directly into our neighbor's study and we don't like it and I'm sure she doesnt' either. Sharon put up two posts and a lattice that we can grow clematis or something on to block her view. We painted it green to go with the evergreens back there. Sharon also painted the bathroom and new blue color, it's really nice and we're going to do all white trim which will look great!
As for my projects, I finished washing all of Cooper's clothes and put them away. I don't think I've ever done that much laundry in one weekend. I then decided that he really does need a closet. That added another project to Sharon's list, make the bedroom armiore a closet for my clothes, that's on her list for this week too. I put all our contacts in an address book and made granola bars.

38 Weeks
Hard to believe that this is my 38th week of this pregnancy. I am ready to have this baby! He doesn't seem ready to come out though. We have a doctor's appointment today, maybe I'll learn something promising about his progress into the birth canal?! It's been incredibly hot this week so I am swelled up to the max, my feet are massive and as Sharon loves to show people, you can push on my foot and leave an indentation!

Baby Shower
Our baby shower was Saturday, June 30th. It was awesome. Susan did a great job hosting and Holly and Angie were gracious to host at their house and make burgers. The weather was wonderful too. Here are some pictures of the day.
WHAT A SURPRISE!
It was great to have her here - I had remarked about a week before that I wished my mom were here and Sharon said she almost blew it when I said that. It was great weekend, she left yesterday evening. We shopped and shopped and shopped. I went to work Monday to take a little break and then we were back at it yesterday with some last minute shopping and tidying up.
What a great surprise, it's awesome because she'll be back with my dad on the 16th and I was worried that we wouldn't have any time to do fun stuff if Cooper is here. So now we have everything we need and more and we can all just relax and spend time with Cooper when they're here.
