36 weeks

Before we get started, I would like to pick a bone with the world-
why do we say pregnancy is only 9 months?! 
Technically, I am now nine 'months' pregnant.
See, if you count lunar months (4 weeks each), pregnancy is actually TEN months!
Why did nobody tell me this?
Anyway...

One month from yesterday is D-day!
Sleeping is miserable.  I complained about it in my earlier trimesters, but that was nothing like the insomnia I'm experiencing now.  It's impossible to get comfortable!  I feel like a turtle stuck on my back.

The kiddo is really running out of room - his little feets are always poking somewhere. 
 Sometimes I wiggle them back and forth with my hand.  
That sound really weird, and I guess it is.  I love it though.  
He'll pull away, then put his foot back and let me wiggle it some more.
A puppy to bump comparison
I washed and folded all of the baby clothes and blankets this week.

My experience folding at baby GAP is coming in handy
Think we have enough blankets?
And we have diapers stockpiled in one corner.
The only thing left to do is pack our hospital bags, which I'm planning on getting done this week!

Now we are just waiting for our little prince to make his arrival.
We have a class this Saturday with the hospital, where they will pre-register us and teach us about birth (duh).
Any advice for filling in the last 4 weeks?  Any last-minute to-do's?
