6 weeks to go...

So we have 6 weeks to go until our baby arrives! We are so excited! We finally got a new car seat and stroller, since we trashed our other set with our boys... And we (Adam) found out that we can squish all the carseats into the back of our Subaru Outback, so we don't have to get a new car yet. (I still get a little claustrophobic thinking about it, but hey- no car payment is always nice...) 

We are still deciding on a middle name, and we are open to your ideas. So if you have a boy name that you love (and would love us to use as a middle name) tell us about it! I think we are pretty set on a first name. 

Other than that, we are pretty much ready to go. It was fun to unpack all of the baby clothes that I used with Elliott and Ollie- and it seems like yesterday that they were wearing them! I can't believe how fast they grow! 
Here is a picture of my huge pregnant belly. I'm really excited to have my ribs and bladder back to myself. But this pregnancy has been pretty great (as far as pregnancy goes! ;) ) Usually by now I have heart burn like crazy and my back hurts. But it hasn't been too bad yet. I do realize I still have 6 weeks left and may have just jinxed myself... I keep thinking I haven't had time to feel the pregnancy stuff because I've been fighting off first the stomach flu, then the actual flu and now a cold that just won't get out of my lungs and sinuses!!! Seriously- enough of that stuff already! Ollie is usually the first to bring it into our house, and somehow I always get it...

Anyway- the doctor is predicting a smaller baby than my last two (Elliott was 9 lbs 6 oz and Ollie was 9 lbs 12 oz!!!) Although, he thought Ollie would be smaller than Elliott too. So I'm predicting a 10 pounder, which is why I am already scheduled for induction (one week early) on March 26th!  The boys seem really excited- in fact Elliott is obsessed with touching my belly and coming up with scenarios about when he is finally here, like baths and the sounds he'll make etc. Ollie is just in for a huge life change- which is good for him right? :) I think as I've been resting a little more than usual and just watching the boys play- they have been in heaven. And Adam has his calm moments and then freaks out a little bit too (i.e. "How are you ever going to go anywhere with three boys?" and "I forgot we will have to carry a car seat everywhere for a while...") Stuff like that. He's such a confident person, it's funny to see him a little nervous about this.

You are such a cute pregnant lady Sinika! I don't have any suggestions for middle names, but what do you have picked out for a first name?

Naoma said...

You look so cute! I cannot believe that you only have 6 weeks left, it feels like yesterday you were just barely telling us that you were preggo! I like the name Donovan... If there are any cool family names those are always fun for a middle name.

Jamie said...

You look so stinkin' cute! I love pregnant bellies!

Knudson Family said...

Are those regular jeans? ;)

Some names I'm liking right now....Ansel, Greer. Oooh! You could do Finn. Now whether or not any of those would go with the first name...? I need to have about twenty more children so I can name them....

The Kohler Family said...

Jessica said...

You're a babe! You guys have great taste in names. I can't wait to hear what you decide to name him. (Yes, I love the name Finn.)

McEntire.

Sorry for the MISERABLE cold!

Or Ari!

Christine Rowley said...

You are cute pregnant!
You'll manage to go places with 3 kids. You just learn how to juggle things a little more, and make the older 2 kids hold hands with each other.

Ooooh, I like McEntire!!! Kennedy is my mom's maiden name--I wish I could use mine, but it's Horst--not too pretty... And you look so great! Have fun nesting those last 6 weeks!
