37 weeks...how are we to this point already?!

How are we already 37 weeks along (well tomorrow we will be :))?! As long as a pregnancy is, it has been surreal to get to this point. With only three weeks left until she is due and everything in place for her arrival, we are just a little anxious!

It's exciting to think/dream about...
  • What will she look like? Who will she look like?
  • How big will she be? How long?
  • And the question we really want to know...will she have red hair?!
The last question might be an odd one, but red hair runs in both of our families and the likelihood of it happening is very high. My mom and Ryan's dad both have red hair and many others in their families have that undeniable hereditary trait. Ryan really hopes she does have red hair. I secretly do too!

I have been lucky to not be swelling at this point. Mid-July is usually in the 90's in Ohio and pretty miserable with our yucky humidity. Lately, it has been rainy and upper-70's and 80's. Yes, I am thankful that this summer has been very unusual.

Pregnancy Stats:
  • Swelling? Nope! 
  • Rings still on? Yes
  • Working out? Yes, but at a much tamer pace. Most common, elliptical, walking and weight training. Stopped playing competitive volleyball at 30 weeks. Stopped doing Zumba at 36 weeks.  
  • How do I feel? Great!
I don't have an updated picture, but will have quite a few soon. Here is one from a few weeks ago with the majority of my closest friends. Just looking at this picture puts a smile on my face :).

We cannot wait to meet her and announce her name sometime in the near future!

Note: Sorry I have been so bad about keeping up with the blog. My hope was to be the queen blogger during our first pregnancy, but moving to a new house when you're five weeks pregnant around the holidays + first trimester nausea + house projects has not been conducive to allowing me much time to update this. I hope to change that from here on out :).
