3 days old 

40 weeks-- let's hope this is the last one!!

Getting in some light reading before bed

Aww....

Seriously, though, AJ has been the absolute best this whole pregnancy. I couldn't have asked for a more supportive, thoughtful, and patient partner to go through this pregnancy with. I can't wait until Alexander gets to meet his awesome dad! 

Baby Duggan's Travel Theme Nursery

It's still partly a work in progress, but it's about 99% done and wanted to share. (I have a globe I want to add and a letter 'a' and some vintage planes to hang). 

We decided early on we wanted to go with a travel theme since AJ and I love to travel so much. Hopefully Alexander shares our love of traveling. 

At the same time, we are keeping him in our room, so we don't really have his own nursery and are sharing tight space. I think we did a pretty good job with the space we have. 

I love the mobile with the crib set (and I didn't even order these together, they just match that well by luck!): 

I just adore his little airplane hooks AJ hung for me: 

And here is his little crib and glider corner (the glider decision was the hardest ever!) 

 

38 weeks!

I've been lame about updating, but here's a pic! The short story is he's the size of a freaking pumpkin(!), I'm 29 lbs up, rings are still fitting and we had a little scare where baby Alexander decided to be lazy and not move all day one day which landed us in triage for monitoring. He looked great though and we're just counting down the days until we get to meet him in person.
