40 weeks of Carolina

Tomorrow is the deadline and boy are we ready for our new arrival!! Mom arrived on Wednesday and we've all been busy with last minute preparations. Fingers are crossed for an on-time arrival and in the case not, she'll be here Monday, October 22nd at 2pm (this little one is growing like a weed, so we've been lucky to wait it out for the past few weeks, but doctors tell us it's now showtime!)

It's been such a good pregnancy. With the exception of early 2nd trimester sickness, mom & baby have been doing great. I've been so lucky to have the energy these past weeks to get around town. Lots of afternoons walking around Madrid, meeting friends for lunch and shopping. What I'll miss most: the acrobat in my stomach! She is such a mover and it has been so much fun to feel her growing and moving around. Started around week 16 lightly and she is going strong to this day- 11pm is her favorite time- a night owl for sure! What I'll miss least: Dr visits that only talk about weight (mine, not the baby). They are obsessed here and I cannot wait to load up on the pasta, french fries, chocoloate and croquettes next week!!

ooohhh weeee, we're so excited!!
