Trick or Treat!

Mommy made me my first Halloween costume and we're showing it off today at her office. (I'm the jack-o-lantern if you couldn't guess!) Daisy tried to nibble on the materials while Mommy was being crafty so I heard a lot of "no, Daisy" last night but everyone survived. We're going to wear the same costume when we visit at NuNu and Chu-Chu's house this weekend. We need to make Daddy dress up, too.

p.s. Daddy is doing the count down -- only 9 days until I'm due, but Daddy better get used to the idea that I control the schedule!

Last Hurrah

Mommy and Daddy gathered with friends to celebrate one of their last nights of freedom before I make my big debut. I kind of like the nightlife...wonder if I'll get to tag along with them some day.

Training for the marathon

At today's doctor appointment, I got hooked up to a machine to measure my heart and movement. The doctor said "looks gorgeous". Since then, I've been working out in Mommy's belly to keep up the good work. I think Mommy would prefer that I relax a bit but a girl's got to keep in shape, right? Besides, I need to prep for a future Baltimore marathon like my Aunt Sarah and Miss Amanda.

Move over symphony show house...

My Mommy and Daddy finished my new nursery today. They installed the curtain rods, curtains, and paintings from my cousins, as well as organized my toys and books. It looks amazing. Okay, I can't see it yet but I hear through Mommy's belly that it looks amazing. Although there was a lot of moving the ladder, drilling, measuring, etc. I didn't hear any cussing so it must have been a relatively easy home improvement. :-)

Weeks 33 to 36

I've been so wrapped up with what's going on out there in your world, I haven't been keeping you apprised of what's going on in here in my world. So let me catch you up...

I have been busily picking up and storing some weight here and there (perhaps 5-6 pounds already), so I can look as gorgeous as ever when you greet me! My bones are solidifying; can you tell when I rib 'ya, Mommy? But I am gonna keep my head soft - and facing down, god willing, for the my actual debut. My lungs are feeling strong and I look forward to taking in some of that Baltimore autumn air soon. Mommy - you may feel more contractions; however don't think they're all real. I am going to try to wait as long as I can since it's soooo cozy and warm swimming in here.

Think Pink!

Mommy, me, Grammie, and Pop-Pop all got up way before the sun to work at the Race for the Cure. It was a lot of fun -- with 30,000 friends and neighbors. It was great to see so many survivors! I liked working in the Command Center with Mommy -- watching the helicopter feed and sharing the info with all the volunteers in the field.

Doodling daisies -- by a pro!

My Uncle Charlie, the artist, spent the last few days bringing my room to life with his creativity. He transformed my walls into my special daisy garden to match the theme that Mommy and Daddy picked for me. I hope I inherit some of the Macsherry artistic genes! Although Mommy says I'm not allowed to paint on the walls -- just paper or canvas. Now, we just have to hang the paintings my cousins have created as the finishing touch.

What's Daisy doing in my room -- she better not be stealing my blankies!
