Weeks 35 and 36 were full of holidays, celebrations, friends and our long awaited babymoon! Plus, we ring in the year of our baby’s birth and things start to get real.

Highlights of week 35:

  • Christmas day marked the start of week 35 for bump!
  • We celebrated St. Stephen’s day with some new friends, had a mid week football watch party with old friends and their new baby, and enjoyed the food and festivities.
  • This week the nerves started to set in.
  • Late this week I went to a full length, normal yoga class and handled it like a champ… with just a few modifications… so I was pretty proud of myself.
  • Over the weekend we did a lot of baby prep and got the final things for the hospital bag. The checklist is getting smaller!

Highlights of week 36:

  • The start of week 36 was also the start of the new year, my 9th month, and the month our baby is due. It all got very real!
  • After a few weeks of testing out a name, I think we finally settled on a first name this week!
  • This week it was FINALLY time to head off on our babymoon!! We spent 4 days and nights in seaside Kinsale, in the south of Ireland, Co. Cork.
  • Friday night it was time to party again, so I put on my other LBD and we went out for a reunion gathering of M+M employees, past, present, and partners at the original favorite spot: 37 Dawson. Of the last 4 left standing, 2 of us were preggers.
