Getting Close!

We are getting close! I am 34 weeks now, and getting more uncomfortable by the day! I feel good, but the swelling has started to set in. My wedding rings no longer fit, and on a good day I can still get my Aggie ring on. My feet and legs start to swell by the end of the day, and it is very uncomfortable. I also have troubles standing up, and just moving around in general. Other than that I still feel pretty good. I went to the doctor last Monday, and have had a lot of pressure. The doctor said that the baby has dropped, but other than that no other movement.

Wednesday night Dustin and I took a breastfeeding class. Dustin came just for moral support, and his face was priceless the entire class! Surprisingly the men in the class asked more questions then the women. Dustin looked at me and said "who is going to be doing the breastfeeding in their house?". HA! One of the men even had the nerve to ask the instructor when his wife can start working out again...I wanted to slap him for her! What a great husband for going with me and sitting through a class where every other word was breast for 2 1/2 hours.

Millie had surgery on Tuesday. Last week she had a bump jump up on her face by her eye. I thought she had been bit by a spider. After a couple days of giving her Bendryl and it not going down I took her to the vet. They did a biopsy of the lump, and it had abnormal cells in the biopsy. This means that she had some form of cancer. They decided the best option would be to take the lump off. We decided that while she was under to have her teeth cleaned as well. They also found a tooth that she had chipped and was infected, so they decided to pull the tooth. Thank goodness we have already met our deductible for our pet insurance. They paid for the tumor procedure and tooth pull. Saved us A LOT of money. I highly recommend getting pet insurance for your dogs! We are still waiting on the results of the tumor.

This weekend we stayed here in Katy and took an online birthing class, and cleaned up my office. Next weekend we are planning on going to Pipe Creek, since we most likely wont be able to go again till after the baby is born and settled. This heat is absolutely miserable for me, so i basically do not go outside unless it is an emergency or if I need to for work. So I am looking forward to going to Pipe Creek, putting on my very flattering maternity swim suit, and soaking up some rays in the pool.
