Week 36 :: The last month!
So here I am at 36 weeks. Hard to believe our little buddy will be here in a month or so! Started seeing the Dr. once a week and this week he checked & Baby Charlie’s head is down which is good news.

Week 35 :: some final preparations
After my little trip to the hospital, week 35 started out pretty uneventful. Steve spent a couple of days in Florida for work. I had dinner with one of my favorite brides to catch up on her June wedding plans and then met {yet another} new doctor that Tuesday.

Week 30 | 75% of the way there!
So here I am at 30 weeks pregnant. Hard to believe this pregnancy is 3/4 of the way over!

Week 29 | A birthday, a wedding, + a baby shower!
Week 29 was filled with fun! Steve’s aunt & uncle were in town so we had a lovely lunch date with them. That Friday I turned 31 (gulp!) I woke up with the cold Steve brought back from Thanksgiving in MI (boo) but we still celebrated with a FABULOUS dinner with Tyler & Lindsay at my favorite restaurant in Charlotte, Soul Gastrolounge. It was so much fun catching up and chatting with...
