Just thought I'd post an update for those of you that aren't here in AZ to get all the latest Pregnant Claire news. As of tomorrow I'll be 29 weeks--only 11 left to go! I try not to think about that too much or I'll freak out. We're about 98% sure what his name will be. Now we're just trying to throw it around in everyday use to make sure we like it. And in the interim, we're still calling him Lando. TRUST ME that's not what his name is going to be!
I had an OB appointment today and they did a glucose test to see if I have gestational diabetes. Not sure when I get the results, but I think it will be okay. Lando's heart beat sounded good (Will loves getting to hear baby brother's heart beat...he'll do a good imitation of it if you ask him), and I'm measuring right on target.
I FINALLY finished painting the baby's room last week. Only took me a little under two months, but it looks awesome. I'm so glad I stuck with the stripes (thanks for the encouragement, Jen B!), now I just need to figure out how the room should be laid out, and John needs to figure out how to remove a stripped screw so we can get the crib set up. I'll post some pictures once we have it all ready. If you'll be at our house at any point over the next 11 weeks, chances are good I will force you to see the room, and you'd better say something nice about the stripes! :) Blood, sweat, and tears went in to getting those things done. Okay, maybe not blood but definitely sweat and tears.
I tried to take a belly pic today to post, but the color of my shirt blends in with the paint in Will's bathroom, so you couldn't really see the size of my belly. My bathroom is a mess, so I can't go in there to do it because no one needs to see the state of my bathroom right now. And I don't really want to take the camera downstairs only to come back up here again. So here's a picture from last week:
ETA: I was wearing a snugger fitting shirt today and took another pic. My friend Jen A. says I look much more pregnant in real life than in the above picture, so maybe this one will be truer (more true?).
(It's hard to have a genuine smile when you're trying to take your own picture!)

You are so clever! I never would have thought to take a picture of myself by using the mirror. Seriously, that would have never occured to me in a million years (yes, I am aware of how dorky that sounds). That was a total 'duh' moment for me.
