Fun week

We did our maternity photos last week.    On our way to the shoot we could see a terrible storm off in the distant.   But the sun was out too.  So we had a rainbow, lightning and the sun all in one shot.  Luckily the storm did not last long and by the time we got to the park it had stopped raining.  It made for some really pretty photos.  We didn't get the sunset shots we wanted but still neat with the clouds and sun.  We did the pictures at a little park down on the bay by the airport.  I actually never knew it existed.    Our photographer was really nice.  We took some pictures on the beach, in the water and on a dock.  She is still working on them, but I hope they turn out well!!

My coworkers threw me a shower this weekend.  I am lucky enough to work with some amazing women.  My coworker Jaime is actually pregnant too, and due the same day.  This is her second baby so she's been a big help for me.  The shower was great.  They had tons of food and yummy desserts.  Jaime made a cute diaper cake with little golf clubs in it.   Some of my friends from outside of the zoo came as well.  It was so nice to see everyone!  I got so many more wonderful gifts.  I really feel so lucky and honored to be given two showers.  Being pregnant has been great!  I am a little sad to have it coming to an end but what is waiting at the end sure is going to be great!!

We also took our hospital tour.  We are delivering at St. Joseph's hospital North.  It's a newer hospital, about 5 years old.  I really liked it.    We were there on a Sunday so it was quiet.  They have 4 delivery rooms which are huge!   It turned out that everyone who was there on our tour was delivering with the same doctors.   Once you deliver you go upstairs to their mom/baby unit.  Again, very nice, clean.    They do a lot of things that I wanted like keep the baby in the room, skin to skin, and they are pro breastfeeding.

Only 6 weeks left.  EEK!
