Common Questions + we're getting down to the wire....

So I talked a bit about the journey, but hadn't really discussed much about the details and some of the questions related to Barbara's pregnancy.  Here are some common questions that are usually asked and/or things we asked our parents...

1.  Did she ever have morning sickness?
Nope,  though every one in a great while she'd be nauseous. 

2.  Did she have any cravings?
Nope, other then things she couldn't eat below.

3.  What did she miss not eating the most?
Coffee, then spam, the hot dogs.  Barbara used to drink 2-3 cups of coffee a day and then she ended up dropping it while we were trying to get pregnant + through out the pregnancy.

Moving on...it had been a while since we last got to see Connor on the screen.  We're around the 32 week mark (~October) where we got to see our little guy again.

Connor - 32 weeks
Our first thought was man, he looks evil/angry.  But we then started imagining more about what he actually looks like - does he look like mom?  dad?  neither?  The only thing we could confirm is that he had some hair which was great and that he was pointing in the right direction, but facing the wrong way.  Over the next few months, Barbara had to do various exercises (let her belly hang down, while leaning on the couch/chair) and also did a lot of walking to get Connor turned around.   

As the weeks went by and days were closer, we started getting to the 36 week mark which meant more frequent trips to the doctor and also that he'd be at term and could come out at any time....
