Wow, this basketball that I swallowed is getting pretty big.  This was taken this past Tuesday at 36 and 1/2 weeks.  It's amazing to think that we are now full term and this little one could show up at anytime.  Are we ready?  Hmm, we'll see. :)

Here is our wonderful Halloween outfit.  We thought they were pretty creative to make 20 minutes from when we got home from work.  The pumpkin looks a bit better as a side shot. :)

This is the only below the waist shot we have since we wanted to be careful and not see what kind of muffin is in the oven!!!


Wow, it has been a really long time since we last got on this to update.  Lots has been going on.  In the last few months, we have moved, traveled to the east and west coast, worked on getting the baby room set up, started baby classes, more than half way through teaching this semester, and just growing each week with the little one inside.  In the midst of all the craziness, we have found some time to hang out with friends and just relax with each other before the little one arrives.  We are still sticking to our guns with not finding out what Lil' Cramer is going to be, and we are super excited to meet him/her.  Our trips to the coasts were both a wonderful time.  We really wanted to have a chance to see family before we became a little less mobile for awhile.  It was awesome to get to see family and friends back in Washington, especially because it had been such a long time.  I really enjoyed seeing familiar faces and finding out about all of the new arrivals coming out there also.

Matt and I both went out to the east coast.  He had a work trip and then I followed along.  It was a quick trip filled with visiting with lots of people and having a baby shower out there also.  It was a wonderful time and it was pretty awesome to have a chance to catch up with family and friends out there also.  Matt then stayed on after I left for a trip to the white house with the past Beijing Olympians.  This was a pretty cool experience for him.

I am now into my nesting stage, and feeling like we need to get things ready to go.  We have 6 1/2 weeks left until our due date, but who knows it might want to come earlier. :)  We can't wait either way.  There is lots still to do in preparation, so we are chugging along with that.  The pictures that we are posting are from the 3D/4D ultrasound that we got in week 31.  It is pretty amazing to get a glimpse of what our little blessing will look like.  He/she has got some chubby cheeks!
