Weekend

It was a pretty good weekend here. We met with our doula on Friday night and talked about our birth plan for an induction and for if, somehow, I go into labor spontaneously. We now have a few more questions for our doctor about the induction, procedure-wise, and we feel like we have a general idea about how inductions can go.

We also cleaned our apartment and continued the organizing projects we started last weekend. So last weekend, we bought 2 sets of shelves for our bathroom (there are no cupboards or storage of any kind in there) and organized the bathroom ... voila:



This weekend, we put up another set of shelves above the diaper station ... shelves that may or may not be stable ... even though the stud finder said there were studs where Aaron drilled, they didn't seem to be there. Obviously we're not going to have unstable shelves above the changing table, so we might have to take them down, which would be a bummer, because the shelves now cover some of the many drilled holes in the wall. We rented a steam cleaner, and Aaron did the whole living room while I sat at the computer and ate vegetarian sushi. Then we put down this rug by the diaper station:

Rugs and shelves aren't too exciting, but these are light and bright and happy (necessary qualities for accessories in basement apartments).

We also went to a farmer's market (where there were only about 5 vendors), and I went swimming tonight. The security guard saw that I was pregnant and about to walk a long ways over a big bridge, so he told me to get in my car and go past security and over it, even though I didn't have the right ID or parking permit. So I could park right next to the gym, which made my night ... I didn't want to have to walk a lot in the cold after swimming. Or walk a lot, period.

All in all ... a nice, mellow weekend.

And finally, here's me at 35 weeks, 5 days:
