Keeping Up With The Jwaskiewicz's: Hello 2012!

In some ways we were happy to put 2011 behind us, but we can also reflect on many good memories. Obviously, we are elated that our little man is going to be a 2012 baby! Haley has been practicing singing the 'Happy Birthday' song (everyday, several times a day) so that she is ready to sing when baby brother arrives. It is also Mike's birthday on Feb. 12th so we'll see who gets to hear the song first...

We had our weekly appointment yesterday. It was uneventful in a good way :) Baby boy is still in the "ready" position, according to the ultrasound, but he is growing nicely, they estimated he's about 3lbs. 5 oz. which is the 40th %. I am 31 weeks and we will continue all the interventions (progesterone shots, stitch, restricted activities) until 36 weeks. After that the docs say I may still carry for a few weeks, especially if scar tissue holds the baby in, so I will be like every woman the last month in her pregnancy, anxiously anticipating delivery and SO ready to meet him. Although, I figure I will have plenty to keep me busy. I have been doing very little to prepare for his arrival. Mike will be starting the nursery soon and getting out all the baby gear but I still have a long list of things to do before he gets here!

In other news, Haley already broke her new glasses, luckily they have a year warranty and we figure we will be taking them in for repairs quite often but she seems to be doing better with wearing them.
