Easter at the Surrey Nature Centre

This year the Surrey Nature Centre hosted a large (1,100 people) Eco-Easter Egg Hunt event. I was working at the event, but Jim brought Kelsey for an Easter egg hunt in the forest and a meet & greet with the Easter bunny. Despite being very sick (fever and cough), Kelsey enjoyed herself and enjoyed meeting the Easter bunny.

At home we also colored Easter eggs, enjoyed 2 family dinners, and had fun with all the stuff the Easter bunny left us on Easter morning.

Look, I found one!

This is fun!

32 weeks

Well, we're moving along quite quickly now! I'd like how fast time is going, but at the same time I want it to slow down. I don't know what to expect when the new baby arrives, and I'm now aware that my time alone with Kelsey is limited. This causes me some anxiety and some pretty wacky emotions. But on the other hand, I'm excited to meet our new family member and enjoy our new family dynamics. I guess all these feelings are normal.

At 32 weeks, I've gained exactly 20 lbs and have just been diagnosed with G. diabetes again, along with pregnancy related bleeding gums (yaaa, additional dental visits). Fun times all around! Baby's heartbeat is still between 140 and 150 and baby is exactly the size it should be at this time (although I feel massive).

I still don't have any "feelings" about whether the baby is a boy or a girl, and people seem to have mixed guesses as well. If I had to guess, I would say boy, only based on the fact that I think I'm carrying more out front, and it's someone's turn to have a boy. We've got names picked out for both, whether they'll be the final names we go with, we won't know for several more weeks.

I have a surgeon appointment on Friday, April 9th. Hopefully we'll learn more then about our baby's birth day.
