Sitting here in the middle of this Blizzard hoping that baby boy just stays put for the next 24 hours! We have lost power and cable once again. I actually think we have had more days in March without power than we have had with power. March is proving to be a real lion, but I am hopeful that this will mean spring is arriving early and April will be beautiful! Baby Dow and I want to get outside this April and walk the beautiful Harbor loop here in Chatham. Okay, here is my 39 weeks pregnant bump update that you all have been waiting for! Not sure whether or not we will get a 40 week update, but I will be sure to keep you guys posted on his delivery and life with our new baby. Size: We had an ultrasound last week, and baby boy is approximately 8 lb.. He is ready to go! (So is Mama J) Weight Gain: Total weight gain since conception has been 16 lb.. I am ready to start having the scale go the other direction! Symptoms: I am still feeling great, I am sleeping well, no heartburn, the pain in my groin has decreased as my body has adjusted to all of these changes and my energy levels are pretty good considering. I absolutely feel like my belly couldn’t possibly get any bigger and its not easy getting up from the couch or getting comfortable for a long period of time in one spot. Favorite Wardrobe piece to wear right now: There is no such thing as a favorite piece of clothing right about now. Getting dressed is just pretty much a nuisance. Nursery Update: The nursery was really complete as of Week 35, so there really isn’t too much to report here. It’s really such a warm, beautiful space that we cannot wait to bring our son home too! One moment I loved about this past week: Marrying my best friend!!! Tim and I made it official and tied the knot. It was such a private, beautiful ceremony and truly everything that the both of us really wanted. We said our vows and made our promises to one another along the shore here in Chatham on a deck at the weather station that overlooked a lot of the coastline. It was a beautiful day. One thing I plan to do for myself this week: This week I am finishing up most of my work with clients and trying to take it a little easier. Remembering to rest when the opportunity arises and enjoy just being with Timmy and relaxing before the big day.
Food cravings: No particular food cravings… I do have the appetite though. Timmy and I went to breakfast Saturday morning, before he could ask me how my breakfast was it was already down the hatch! “I’ll take a short stack of pancakes, side of bacon and a poached egg please.” …. #noshame. Currently working on: We are working on our birth plan and finishing up our music playlist. Together we are working on how to keep me as calm and focused as possible. I am working on easing any anxiety as it comes up for me and reminding myself that this is a beautiful process that brings us closer to meeting our son. Women have been doing this forever! Any mamas out there have anything to share about what helped them during their labor day?? I would love to hear about your experiences. xo

Go fuck yourself, Bill. A sad, sad man you must be.

Hey Bill I’m just curious why you would want to poop on someone’s happiness? Does it negatively affect you in any way, shape, or form? Are you jealous that they found a true meaningful love? Why?
