graham crackers and frosting

that's the just perfect snack my husband and i just finished eating. topped off by a glass of milk and i am fully satisfied. also, we are currently watching the packers v. giants game on t.v.. it is currently 4 degrees out where we are at. i'm glad i'm not playing football in this type of weather, like those teams are. i'd much rather prefer comfy pants, a fleece blanket, and my husband, which i am currently enjoying.

today we had a 'lunch at our church' which turned out to be a lot of fun. there are a couple of couples (ha!) there that we are getting to know of late. actually, there are more than just a couple, a few...but anyway. we had a chance to sit and talk with one of them for quite a while. it was very nice and encouraging. we are thinking of taking the plunge and inviting them all over this friday, so keep your fingers crossed. it will be the "next step" in our couples relationship. let's hope it goes well. also, dave's been on the church basketball team, and though they are 0-6, it's also proved a good oppurtunity for us to get to know them as he plays ball with the boys and i sit and talk on the sidelines with all the wives at the saturday games. quite cute if you ask me.

another milestone: i have officially passed my husband in weight. yessiree, you may call me a fatty. i know i'm not and i know its the baby etc. etc. but it still doesn't feel the best to weigh more than your significant other. but it does lend itself to a lot of jokes, which i am fully embracing. and, if you think about it, if you do actually take away the 6 pounds that the baby weighs, i do weigh less than him. so i don't feel to bad.

in other baby news, my last checkup at the midwifery place was good. the baby's heartbeat was 150 and my tum was 36 cm. right on track. i just need to keep watching my iron, but other than that, things are great. other than the fact that i would really enjoy giving birth soon, we'll just need to keep waiting until hocker baby decides it's time to come.

also, i am pretty sure this might be my last week at work. i thought for sure that i might make it longer than this, but sadly, my body is just not going to make it. i'm really starting to feel big. "large and in charge" they say. so soon, all i wll be doing is sitting around waiting for hb to come. so please, give me a call! i'd love to talk.
