Our Little Soccer Player

We joke that we must be having a soccer play since the baby is such a strong kicker.  Thanks to one of my co-workers and our neighbors, our little soccer player will be well outfitted!

32 Weeks and a Diaper Cake

First off, here are the week 32 pics:


We actually took these a little late, but better late than never, right?  As you can see, we're continuing to grow :)  Matthew just now realized that I've been wearing the same (or similar) outfit for each picture session.  He's very observant. 

Everything continues to go well, although I'm starting to have some difficulty sleeping at night.  During a baby shopping spree in Oregon New Year's Eve weekend (yay for no sales tax!), we bought a body pillow which has helped quite a bit.  His name is Matthew II, or as I like to call him, Two-y.  We spent one morning of our Oregon trip hanging out at Sumptown Coffee, enjoying some yummy Americano's and attempting to complete the New York Times Crossword Puzzle.

And now, for the Diaper Cake:

Two co-workers of mine are expecting babies around the same time, so we had a joint baby shower at work.  I won the grand prize - the coveted diaper cake.  It's a little hard to see from the picture, but it contains a lot (you could call it a plethora) of rolled up newborn diapers, along with all kinds of other goodies such as onesies, bibs, blankets, and toys.  Such a neat idea!

I'll try to be better about updating more often, especially as the time is drawing near.  Only 38 days until our due date (not that anyone's counting!).
