33 weeks...7 to go!

I can't believe I am already 33 weeks!  The past couple of weeks have been busy, and this weekend we fly to Virginia (Kyle is in a wedding).  After that, I am staying home to rest up for baby Luther's arrival.  Since my last post, we have been busy working on baby names and preparing for baby Luther in general.  We (well, mainly Kyle) put together baby Luther's bouncy seat.  I have narrowed down options for an announcement.  I plan to order envelopes tomorrow so I can go ahead and address them.  I still need to clean out the nursery.  I am hoping to work on that tomorrow too.  There are some other things on my to do list, but I plan to work on those after this weekend's trip.

This past Tuesday, we had an ultrasound and appointment.  Baby Luther is looking great and a little on the large side.  As of June 26th, you weighed about 4 lbs and 11 oz.  This puts you in the 76th percentile for weight.  Overall, you are measuring about 2 weeks ahead.  The outside of my belly is measuring 3 weeks ahead.  My fluid levels looked great.  The ultrasound showed my fluid level to be a 15.  I am not exactly sure what that means, but I was told I have plenty of fluid  You are head down and very low (which explains the pressure I have been feeling).

It has been HOT in Clarksville, TN!  The temps have been consistently around 100-105 degrees.  I have had a little bit of swelling in my feet and ankles.  I have been thirsty and wanting lots of water.  Naturally this keeps me in the bathroom.  Overall, I have been feeling well. 

You have been on the move...still.  You love to kick around.  At times, my entire stomach will jolt because you kick so hard.  It doesn't hurt, it is just a strange feeling.  We go back to the doctor July 10th.  I am looking forward to hearing your sweet heartbeat again.  It is the best sound!!!!!
