The Home Stretch

We are now less than 6 weeks away from the arrival of our Little Man! I had my 34 week appointment on Monday--everything seems to be going great! His head is down and his booty pushes out and moves around in the center of my belly. His legs must be curled and off to my right side, because I have recently started having some movement and kicks that are not so comfortable. According to babycenter.com, the baby is around 5 lbs, and almost 18 inches long! The pharmacist at Walgreens predicts that I will have the baby on April 3 which would be about a week early! She said that she has a very large family of her own (& 32 nieces and nephews) so she just has a sense for these things. In fact, she knew that I was having a boy without me saying anything! Hmmm...we'll see if she's right!

YaYa, Emily, & Lisa threw a beautiful baby shower on Saturday! I will post some pictures as soon as possible. Thank you to them for their thoughtfulness in planning such a fun event! There were some guests who were able to make it from out of town too! Thanks girls for making the long trip here! It was great to see everyone!

We also welcomed another baby into the family! Matt's cousin Amy and her hubby Jay have a beautiful baby boy named Chase who was born on February 25--3 weeks early, but healthy and well! Congrats to them!

Chase is looking forward to meeting Baby Klein - hope that all goes well as you enter the "home stretch" It is amazing how as soon as the little one is born - he will steal your heart (and your sleep!); when you look at that cute little face, toes, fingers, you think WOW-God is great! AMY:)

I'm so happy I go to see you last weekend! Thanks again for letting me bring my little pee wee. It was a lot of fun.

Good luck in this last stretch, and stretch you will. It's amazing that you can get any bigger, but you can! Just slow down and sleep now.
