38 weeks! We're almost there!

Hey everyone!

Here are a few updated pictures! We are in the home stretch and everything is great! I'm healthy and so is baby! Now it is just time to wait :-) My doctor told me that she will only wait about a week, so we will definitely have a baby by May 21st! I can't believe it! Hopefully, he comes before that! We are still not decided on a name but we are down to just a few :-) We'll let you know as soon as we know :-)

34 weeks and counting!

Well we are almost to the end! We have about 6 more weeks to go :-) We have been very busy! We had a shower at my work on March 18th. It was a lot of fun and we got so many cute things for baby. My mom was here for a visit and some "baby time" for a week. She got to go to the doctors with me and shopping and all sorts of fun baby stuff :-) We had our first childbirth class which was great. We go every Monday for the next 4 weeks. I am looking forward to our next one! Our last doctor visit was great (4-2-09). Baby is doing wonderful! I go again on April 15th and then it is every week! Wow, I can't believe how close we are getting! I also had an appointment on April 3rd to meet our pediatrician. He was great and I am very happy. Well, we have not decided on any names yet but we are down to 10 :-) This has been such a tough decision for us. We might just have to look at his little face when he is born :-) The nursery is all done. We are going to hang a few more things on the wall but other than that, it is complete! I think we are all set with baby necessities with the exception of our monitor which we still need to get. Other than that we are prepared as we will ever be! I thought my little guy was going to be late but now I am thinking he might come early. Maybe because he is always trying to go somewhere and there is no room for him to go :-) Well, I think I covered the last few weeks! We'll blog again soon!

A Quick Update!

Just wanted to write a quick update! I am going to the doctors every 2 weeks now! I can't believe that I am to that point! My last appointment was this Thursday! Everything is great! Heartrate is at it's usual, 140. My blood pressure is good and etc... I am so blessed to have such a noneventful pregnancy :-) My only complaint is a sore back and my huge feet and ankles (which hurt at times!). But, everything is normal and that is all I can ask for! Our little guy loves to lean against my ribs (which can also get sore!) and the doctor told me that was his bottom or his feet :-) His head seems to be at the bottom where it should be! Well that is about it! We'll update in another couple weeks!!

An update!

Well, it is time for an update! I am currently 30 weeks pregnant! Actually, I will be 31 weeks tomorrow! I cannot believe how close we are! I am feeling our little guy everyday! Lots of times I can feel a little body part poking out! It is crazy and also amazing! We have yet to decide on a name! We each wrote our top 10 names on a list and we each can eliminate one every week. So, we are down to 18 on the list! On Sunday we will eliminate 2 more! The plan is to have a couple names for when the baby is born and hopefully when we see him, the name will come to us :-)

Well I am going to the doctor every 2 weeks now! My last visit was March 5th and everything was great! Doc seems to think I am doing just fine! That is always good news! We had a great heart rate of 140. It seems to always be right around that number. The doctor was not sure how the baby was positioned in my belly but if she "had to guess", she would say he was breach. But no worries, plenty of time to turn I was told :-) I had an appointment on the 6th to meet a pediatrician that I have heard great things about, but unfortunately, I got a flat tire and could not make the appointment :-( Thanks to my brother for coming to the rescue! And I was able to reschedule for early April. So, it all worked out :-)

On March 7th we had a great couples shower at Dave and Charissa's house! Thank you Charissa, Michelle and Michele! You girls are the best! We had so much fun and it was great to see all of our friends and some of their new little ones! Of course the party turned into corn hole and rock band, but I am not surprised! Thanks again to everyone! We appreciate everything!

Well, my next visit is next week already! I go again on March 19th. I have no complaints with the exception of a sore back and swollen feet that started right around my last appointment (3-5). It stinks because none of my shoes fit :-( I really didn't want to have to buy new ones but I think we might have to make a trip this weekend! Speaking of that, I better get off the computer and put my feet up :-) I'll update again soon!

Hi everyone! Here is a picture of the start of our nursery! Here is also a couple pictures of me at 27 weeks! Not too much longer to go. I can't believe it! We had a great visit with the doctor on February 13th. Baby and myself are doing great! So far so good! We are going back on March 5th and then we will be visiting the doctor every 2 weeks. I can't believe we are already to that point. Well we are consistently working on the nursery. A little bit at a time. We are all signed up for a childbirth class (it's 5 weeks long!) and we are taking a tour of the labor and delivery ward at the hospital next week. We need to make an appointment with some pediatricians soon and make a decision on that. I have some good recommendations so it should be a smooth process! We are really looking forward to our NC shower on March 7th. This is our 3rd shower! We are so blessed and so appreciative! It will be a lot of fun. We are really looking forward to it. It is also a couples shower so Curt can be apart of this one. Well that is about it for now. I'll update y'all after the next appointment and shower! Love ya!

Our Second Shower, 1-24-09

Hey everyone!

Well here are a couple pictures from our 2nd baby shower! It was 1-24-09 at St. John's in Plymouth, Michigan. Mom put this one on for us. It was so great to see all of our friends and family! We received so many GREAT gifts! We are slowly going through everything. We started getting our room cleaned out and we will be working on the nursery pretty much every weekend from now on. Soon we will be getting our furniture and the rest of our bedding/decor. Then we can really start putting things away and start to get organized. I already plan on spending my spring break washing all the clothes and cleaning! If anyone wants to come over and scrub, you are more than welcome :-) At the shower I was 24 weeks. We're getting there! I am feeling the baby move on a daily basis. It is not all day long but definitely a few times during the day. Curt finally felt and saw my tummy move. It's fun to imagine him moving around and hanging out in my tummy. We have an appointment on Feb. 13th. Pretty soon my appointments will be more regular, as opposed to every month. Well, that is it for now. We had a great shower and we are extremely blessed to have all of of friends and family. Thank you everyone for your generous gifts :-)
