I am behind sharing my 31 week post since it contains all the pictures from my shower. I promise to put it up tomorrow. Meanwhile, I thought I'd catch you up on week 32 since it has been a big week (and I don't just mean because of my stomach.)
- Monday: Prenatal yoga. I just re-enrolled and start my next session tonight which takes us up until the week of our due date. I wish you all could see us pregos doing these moves. So funny!
- Tuesday: Max's 31st birthday! We celebrated in 2 portions. Tuesday night I cooked Max fettuccine alfredo from scratch, thank you Patti for the recipe! (If you know me and my food aversions, then you know that was a major feat). Max then found out we were going away for Saturday night for a getaway.
- Wednesday: We started our birthing classes through the hospital. Mostly it was 3 hours of sitting in VERY uncomfortable chairs while hearing about things we already knew. I am hoping this coming week is more informative and that our teacher stops saying "ok?" after every single sentence. Funny enough, two other couples in our class are teachers and due within 1 day of us, so these may be our hospital buddies. And one of Max's former students who is a senior in high school is also in the class. Sad and strange for Max.
- Thursday: My first visit to the prenatal chiropractor. To address my back pain and tailbone, we've decided to send me to a special chiro that works with pregnant ladies. So far so good. We also carved our pumpkins and decorated for Halloween.
- Friday: Halloween! I was able to go see Staci and her kids at a mutual friends house where we had a small party pre-trick or treating. Then Max and I handed out candy until 8:30. After, we headed to the Holohan's annual party. They do a haunted garage every year that is spectacular. Check out Max and my costumes below! This was also the day I had my 32 week check up. Everything is on track and we are progressing nicely. My only complaint right now is pretty bad swelling of my feet and hands. I wake up in the morning and can barely walk squarly on my feet. I just need to spend more time at the office with my feet up. Heart tones were mid 140's though the baby was sleeping at the time (I think).
- Saturday: I spent the early afternoon at my friend Carrie's shower. We are due 10 days apart. Lots of fun girls there to hang with. Then I picked Max up and we headed for his birthday surprise. We traveled 2 hours south to the New Buffalo, on the lake shore. (This further cement's Max's theory that every town in Michigan has copied New York state by using their town names.) We stayed in this amazing 2 room suite on the marina. We had a great dinner at an Italian restaurant and were able to unwind for what could be the last time before the baby arrives. The hotel even had 24-hour Ben and Jerry's ice cream service....A Max dream come true.
- Sunday: We headed home after a trip to the outlet mall to get some baby and PE teacher essentials (sleepers and wind pants). We also had a fantastic lunch in Saugatuck (no, this is not a NY town name) and ended the afternoon with naps and football watching.
All in all a crazy fun week. Hope everyone reading this had an equally great week as well. Stay tuned for out post about the shower.
Love Court, Max and Baby K
32 weeks and plumping up by the minute. 
Max went as Payne Stewart and I went as his golf ball. Note: he did me beat me with the club.
The Holohan party crew. Josie, Mary and entire family went as Pioneers. Kevin looked Amish!

Staci and Conner at the pre-trick-or-treat Halloween party.
Max carving our pumpkin with a drywall knife. It was brilliantly easy this year!
