Baby #3 Week 32 Be Prepared

32 weeks!

Here's my 32 week profile! It must show, because everyone I've come across this week (even my restaurant host) has labeled me at 8 months. My ultrasound yesterday showed a healthy, active child. Baby likes to assume "The Thinker" pose during it's close ups. Number 3 doesn't seem to be as tall as Sunny and Dainty, but it's already estimated at 4 1/2 lbs! I may have a good chunker on the way. 

With baby arriving next month, it's time to get the nursery freshened up! The room is currently a grey-purple. It reminds me of a childhood grape bubble gum. Peter chose the theme for the nursery as "You Are My Sunshine." 

So, naturally, he chose a soft, sunshine yellow! As it's up to me to style it up, I chose white for the trim and robins egg blue/seafoam green for the accents. It's going to be darling once it's completed! Last night we taped the edges of the room and painted around the trims. We didn't buy primer, so the room will need two coats of yellow to cover the dark purple underneath. The room should be yellow by the end of the weekend! I still need to buy white paint for trim and other supplies. 

Starting this week I'm doubling up on meals to freeze away for the baby's arrival or even those days towards the end when I'm too tired to cook dinner. Today I'm baking and freezing away a double batch of honey whole wheat loaves. 

I've also started doing my daily pregnancy yoga stretches. I certainly need to do it every day. Baby is head down resting on my sciatic and is making walking, sitting, and standing quite painful, so the stretches help a bit.
