37 Weeks: Hmm...

I just realized I title my current pregnancy timeline, but always look back to the previous week-so therefore, I'm posting for Week 36 if that makes sense...?  I'm confusing myself.  Anyway, here is a recap of last week:

Wednesday, March 9:

Hubs ordered our new double stroller a week or so ago, and we changed the box so that Leif could be a "bebot" (his term for robot).  It was pretty cute watching him shuffle through the house.

Thursday, March 10

It was one of my coworker's birthdays on Tuesday but she had taken a couple days off...then she took more days off because she had the flu.  Alas, she wasn't going to be around the whole week and she gave us her blessing to eat her cake.  I had to take a photo before we devoured it!

Saturday, March 12

We did an IKEA run that afternoon...which was sort of a nightmare, but we actually spent less than our last Target trip!  We ate at our favorite Mediterranean place around the corner, but Leif didn't eat much...so after a quick trip to Sprouts, Leif devoured a blueberry muffin. Kid loves pastries.

Saturday nights tend to be movie nights...here's Leif cuddling with me towards the end of "Penguins".  I love when he snuggles with me.  :)

Sunday, March 13

Hubs wanted to take a family trip that day and we decided to hit up Redondo Beach where they were having a "kite festival".  It.  Was.  Not.  Fun.  I know, I know, we can be introverted and not like people, but seriously, this trip was just all around kind of a disaster.  But it had very few good moments...

Hubs took an artsy photo of Leif while waiting for food.  

Ocean!

You'd think this kid would love the kites, but nope...he was more interested in sand.  Can't blame him.

This was my favorite kite-hard to see, but it's a pirate ship!

From waiting almost 30 minutes to get seated for lunch to waiting another 30 minutes to get food (Hubs' fish and chips were cold and promptly sent back); from terrible people everywhere to getting barked at by the beach lifeguards for no reason...it was just overall not fun for Hubs and I.  Leif was in good spirits though the whole time (besides being super antsy at lunch).  At least we tried to get out of the house!

Tuesday, March 15

Leif had his first check-up with his new doctor.  He gets a little squirmy/crazy while waiting around, but overall he is such a great patient!

Weighing in a 30 lbs., 1 oz. - around 60% for his age...and 37 inches - approximately 3 FEET - he's in the 89th percentile...we have a tall kid who is already more than half my size.  AT AGE 2...

And here we are today:

Thanks Hubs for buying me the premium app :).  Apparently Baby #2 is around 6.5 pounds and 19 inches long...measuring  "as long as a stalk of Swiss chard".  Always comparing to food...
All of my coworkers think I'm going to deliver early as they know how much I walk and how active I try to be at work.  I am slowing down quite a bit though-I start to get cramps when I walk too fast or get up too quickly!  And thankfully Leif is enjoying walking to and from the daycare entrance-before he wouldn't let go of me and I had to carry him.

Yesterday Leif was a daddy's boy-I'm glad he has a few days here and there that he loves to be around daddy.  I just wish it was more often because it makes both of us very happy!  I'm not saying I don't enjoy the love and attention from my little boy, but I really enjoy seeing all of us happy-and the fact that another little life is joining our family, I'm going to need daddy's assistance big time.  :)
