What Comfort Zone: Birthday Month- June

It's June!!! Titus' birthday month.

I am now 38 weeks pregnant, and went today for a check-up. There really wasn't any new news... no contractions, no weird pains, Titus is still in good position, and I am still supposed to workout/walk... or as my doctor said "go climb a mountain". Haha! I feel that I do that every time I walk home.. we have a massive hill, or 2, or 3, to get to our new home. It's a good thing I have an encouraging husband, who helps support my back/push me up the biggest hill.

Due Date: June 21, 2011

Gender: still a boy!!!!!

Name: Titus Jae Linn (same initials as his dad)

Mom's Weight gain:

April 7 73.5kg = 162 lbs

April 28th 74.5 kg = 164 lbs

May 19 78.5kg = 172 lbs

June 9 78.5 kg = 172 lbs (Is this really possible to not gain ANY weight in the last month of pregnancy! )

Dad to be: Loving being done with work! We have been off work for less than a week now, and in that time Tim has: Run 4-5 times, biked, played basketball, made a home brew, helped around the house with new projects, watched tv, went with me to the Dr., read, and a few other things here and there! It's been SO great to have him at home. - Did I mention he is VERY ready for Titus to be here. He keeps telling him to kick his way out, and to come out soon. He just told me the other day that he never knew he would be so ready/excited for Titus to come out! :) He will be such a good dad!

Health of Mom and Baby: Doing well, but feeling big. Titus still enjoys tossing, turning, kicking, and elbowing me, although he is continuing to grow and have less and less room. It's as if he is trying to stretch me out or say, "hey, let me have some space". Anyways, According to the Dr. Titus is about 3 kg in weight now which is about 6.6 lbs. -- Tim and I are still getting a few things ready in his room, however once we have it complete I will post pictures for everyone. We are also working on getting the house a little more "homey" feeling, which includes, more pictures, more decorations, curtains (which my mom will bring with her from the U.S.), re-arranging some furniture, and so on. Once again I will try to post some pictures once it is all ready!

Last time I posted, I listed all of the things I need to get done before Titus arrives. Well, here is the status of each item on my list....

1) I need to finish out the school year. - Done

The following pictures are from the other night we had a beer brewing fest in our kitchen! It's Tim's 5th batch of home brew and he decided to experiment with adding an uncalled for ingredient. Can anyone guess what that ingredient is!?
