Baby Update - weeks 31-33

Bullet format to get caught up (I feel like I am letting the baby down by not getting these up weekly because I really want to have this to look back on.....)

• Played in my last tennis match - and WON!  Was nice to end on a winning note.  I won 2 lost 2 this season.  
• Feet started to hurt when I was on them too much.
• Think the midwife may have slipped up at week 31 appointment.  She mentioned a gender after having the ultrasound machine out - I'm telling myself she just uses this pronoun all the time. 
• Midwife was using ultrasound machine to determine if baby was head down.  She was pretty sure the head was down, but the butt had been up in my ribs and because it was "hard" too, she wanted to be sure.  Baby is head down and ready to go.
• Butt in my ribs - and multiple other body parts.  Getting a little more uncomfortable.  Baby moves - ALOT - and while I love to know that Baby is active and well in there, sometimes, its just down right uncomfortable.  I can feel what I think are Baby's tiny feet going across my tummy and Baby's hands/arms sometimes have a boxing match with my pelvic bone.  
• Got a good video of movement and sent it to my mom and grandma.  I think they liked it and it helps make them feel part of the experience!  I'm trying to send more video/pictures.  Thanks to the iphone, that is a little easier.
• Started needing naps again almost everyday.  They are shorter than they were early in the pregnancy, but I am definitely wearing out quicker.  This is not good when my to do list is a MILE LONG.
• Went on my last work trip - to Florida (terrible I know) - for our annual meeting.  Weather was definitely warm and slightly humid.  Experienced cankles almost every day.  I have a pretty good set up working at home, I have positioned chairs to keep my feet up most of the day, so had not had much swelling.  Walking around and sitting in banquet rooms during presentations all day = swollen feet and ankles at the end of the day.
• Don't worry the trip wasn't all work - we had an afternoon off.  I ate lunch by the pool (referenced here) and got a prenatal massage.  The massage was heavenly.  He worked on my hips (where I've had the most discomfort) and really stretched them.  I felt great after!
• Got a call from the store where we got our crib - its being delayed and they wanted to check my due date to be sure we still had time to get it in.  Apparently there are customs issues with Canada.  Was a bit disappointed as I wanted to have room somewhat set up next weekend.  My mom and sister will be here for my shower and I wanted to show them.  Oh well...they'll see it when Baby arrives.
• Latest doctor appointment went well.  Heart rate has been in the low to mid 130's....is this an indicator???  Old wives' tales have been pretty split for us.  (If you are new - we're not finding out the sex of Baby until he/she arrives)
• Sleep is getting more sporadic.  I am up at least 2 times, usually about every three hours (wonder if this is just a glimpse of what's to come) and sometimes I have trouble going back to sleep and am awake for 45 minutes or so.  Hmmm, Baby are you telling me something??!!!??
• Excited for my shower next weekend.  Hopefully after the shower we can get really organized and ready for the arrival of Baby.
• We took a tour of the hospital.  All private rooms, which is nice.  The L&D rooms are huge, but I imagine that's for the 10-12 people that will be all up in my lady parts for the delivery.  :)  The postpartum rooms are nice, but smaller, like a small hotel room.  But still private, so awesome!
• This Saturday is our childbirth class....wish us luck!
• And since I bored you with a lot of bullets, here are some pictures for you.

32 weeks in the morning

32 weeks 1 day in the evening - can you see the difference?

Halloween -  not the best picture, but the only one of the pumpkin from the front.

Side shot, yes the belly is growing.
