Oh my God. What a mind blow! I woke up this morning very excited that we were at 36 weeks or 9 months. In fact, I woke at 4:30am and was so excited I couldn't sleep. My book assures me that were he to be born this week, he would be considered full term. Goooooo Babybutt! He's also very very excited today. He's been busting a move all day. Perhaps he knows too eh? It cracks me up to do these kick count sheets the doctor gave me because they're supposed to kick at least 10 times in a 3 hour period. It doesn't matter what time I choose to start monitoring, the longest the kid has ever taken to reach 10 movements is 40 minutes. It's usually somewhere between 15 and 30 minutes. Believe me, I notice immediately when he's quieter than usual. I've also gotten my first faint stretch marks under my belly. I noticed them after viewing a belly photo Hub took. He apparently noticed them long ago, but didn't mention them. He's learning. :) My other boy has dropped quite a bit too, and I can now breathe easier. I love you both boys.

You look fabulous! Happy 36 weeks!
I remember when you were unsure this baby would ever be made. Liam too, and he's ten months old this week. So good that great things happen.
You have just sailed through this pregnancy. It has gone so fast, and your little man will be here before you know it. I am so happy for all of you.
Just think this time next year you will have a little boy to adorn with Christmas presents! (And let's not forget, buy that "Baby's First Christmas" ornament!)
Happy 9 months! (as I wipe away a tear of happiness) You're awesome :)
Congrats on 36 weeks! You look wonderful!
You look so good! This post makes me miss being pregnant. I was never happier the day Skeeter was born, but I loved having him with me ALL the time.
you look great, as usual. and yes, it does look like he has dropped some.
Lookin' good!
And I appreciate that you did not have the baby while I was on vacation.
