32 Weeks...

Yesterday I hit 32 weeks. That means in 8 weeks (or less) Luca Alberto will be making his grand entrance into the world. That just seems crazy. How can it be so close? 2 months!!!!! I feel so excited and so ready to meet this little blessing,  but I also feel like we still have so much left to do! Thankfully school will be out in just two more weeks and we can work on the last minute details like washing the clothes and blankets, organizing things, packing the hospital bag, etc. Speaking of hospital bags...we have our hospital tour in a couple of hours, followed by our maternity pictures at Papago Park! I hope the hospital tour doesn't freak me out. I have honestly not been nervous at all...yet.
We had our growth ultrasound last week and met with our doctor. Luca is weighing in at about 3lbs 10oz right now, and is in the 35 percentile. She said he is on the smaller side, but she isn't concerned at all since I am a smaller person. She said she would rather me have a smaller baby. I couldn't agree more, as long as he is healthy! According to her, he should be about 6-7lbs at birth. That sounds just fine by me...he can do is growing on the outside.
Last week I was also blessed with another baby shower at work. I have some of the best coworkers ever, and they make my job so much easier. It's such a blessing to come to work every day knowing I have their support in everything. Teaching in our school is definitely a challenge, and I know we wouldn't survive without each other to lean on!

Some of the gifts Luca received...he is so spoiled.

I am hoping later this week I will be able to post again with our maternity shots that we are having taken today. I am not sure how long it will take for her to edit them. I also promise to bring back the Halloween shirt next weekend....I know I have been slacking with that. I will be amazed if it still fits, Luca has had quite the growth spurt in the last few days.
