Yesterday I went in for a checkup and an ultrasound to see how this little guy is growing. Everything looks pretty good except that he is measuring a little small. :-/ The doctor said he is only in the 37th percentile at this point so we are going to keep an eye on it. I am going to increase my fruits and veggies, try and get him more nutrients and apparently I have to spend time in the pool. The doctor said it will release some of the pressure and allow him to float around to get more blood and everything flowing.
He has definitely become more active and is reaching all corners of my insides! He definitely likes to stretch in there, not just kick but streeeeeeetch.
Things are moving along slowly with the nursery because we had damaged or missing parts on three out of the four pieces of furniture we purchased! That has been fun...but I am sure it will get there and I will post some pics when it's ready.
There is still a lot to do, and even though I have 3 months left I don't feel like I have any time! Trying to do all that needs to be done and balance a semi-stressful, full time job has been difficult at times, not to mention the holidays are coming up....yikes.
I will leave you with a picture of our little man. Introducing:
Lucas Michael Cheniae
He was just posing so sweetly with his little hand under his chin :)

You both look wonderful. The beauty of the 3rd trimester is that things get SO cramped, you don't care what they do to you as long as they get the baby out! I think it was designed that way.....
I'm not usually a fan of those 3D ultrasounds, but that is a sweet picture.
And Lucas, you're not allowed to already be giving momma something to stress about! You start growing, mister! :)
Very cute picture-I never got good face pics of my babies! So it is still a boy this time around right? Can't wait to see you in a few weeks.
Time for a new post.
I know Dad, things have been uuuuuber crazy! I hope to post something this weekend...
