Pregnancy Update: Week 31 November 30, 2003
We had a bit more eventful pregnancy this week, and it's all good. As I mentioned before, Geralyn flew to St. Louis early for a couple of baby showers around Thanksgiving. We brought one huge suitcase filled with nothing but baby booty! There were burp cloths, a mobile, booties, sleepers, caps, books, stuffed animals, blankets, video tapes, hand puppets, bath robes, several outfits, a quilt, a two-way monitor, receiving blankets, a check, a rubber duckie, a boppy pillow (don't ask), a rattle, bibs, and a few gift certificates. And, my family had already sent us a nice glider and a Diaper Champ.
Samantha thanks you all! Her nursery is quickly filling up with many fuzzy and/or soft things. Ger took pictures of the showers, and we'll be posting them shortly.
The flight was uneventful, as I had hoped. Geralyn found out that visibly pregnant women get different, better treatment when going through security. They waved her over and did a quick, efficient, manual search so that she wouldn't have to go through the metal detector like the rest of us cattle. Baby handled the flight just fine.
The other amazing thing is that we noticed that we can now see the baby moving. As in, she kicks so hard you can see Ger's tummy move. Wow. I'm told that in another few weeks we'll be able to make out specific body parts, like feet, hands, elbows, and head.
Here's Geralyn's picture for the week, which we had to take at her parents' house in St. Louis:
