36 weeks

I'm 36 weeks along now. My feet and fingers are still swollen. The heartburn has increased and will actually wake me up at night and sometimes I have to sleep sitting up. I've been very tired lately just from not being able to sleep comfortably at night. Mylanta really seems to help though.

The boys and I made a paper-link chain to keep track of how many days are left until the due date. Each day one of the boys tears one off. They got a little excited and tore 3 or 4 off in one day so it was hard for them to not be able to tear another one off for a few days afterwards.

Dennis came to our house from Saturday through Sunday evening and helped Kevin start to get the house ready for the baby. They started putting tile down in our bedroom and ripped out the old carpet and padding in the bedroom that will become Kevin and Drake's room. Dennis laid most of the new flooring in. It looks VERY nice! Once we have that room set up we can start the process of preparing the nursery for the baby.

We get a crib this weekend and Dennis is coming back to help some more. My sister is coming as well with a couple helpers. We should be able to get a lot done.

I am going to decorate with a butterfly theme in the baby's room. I found a crib set at a second hand store for only $18 that came with a bumper, sheet, blanket, quilt and skirt. It's pink with butterflies. I love it.

Well, back to work!
