Birthday, Shower, Update etc.

Well here we are at 36 weeks and I can't believe how much time has suddenly stood still. Seriously. I've hit the point in the pregnancy where I feel like I'm going to be pregnant forever. 4 more weeks feels like a lifetime. If that's the case though, then it's been a lifetime since I last updated this blog!

I have to say that my Thanksgiving weekend was wonderful. For my birthday this year I decided I needed a little TLC. Jamie and I booked a one night stay at the Rimrock Hotel in Banff. While there, I was treated to a facial and pedicure. It was heaven! I saw my feet for the first time in months and they were looking a little rough. Not anymore - now they look fabulous! While at the Rimrock, we also enjoyed a swim in their pool as well as a couple of feasts in their beautiful dining room. It was a really lovely birthday gift (and for those that are counting - yes, it was an early birthday treat).

I have a shower coming up! My very sweet friend France will be hosting it on Sunday, Nov 8th. Since I got over-excited about baby coming, I've purchased most of the essentials already. This has left some people stumped as what to give as a gift so Jamie and I registered at "Babies R Us". If you'd like more details, just give me a shout.

Last Thursday I went in for a regular prenatal check-up. Apparently my blood pressure has been creeping up and the doctors don't like that. I had to go in for blood tests and I'll get the results this coming Thursday. Rest assured, JJ's heartbeat is strong and he continues to move around as best he can in what little space is left. I promise to post an update when we know the results from the blood tests.

Our last childbirth class is tomorrow night. I think I'm going to miss our instructor. She has been quite the character :)
