~30 wks & counting...

It is hard to believe that I have a bit under 2 1/2 mos left before our little man arrives. This is getting so exciting. Matt and I both have had a dream that Hudson ended up being a girl but according to his ultrasound it is "obvious" that he is a boy... ;)

The paint job is complete in the nursery and it looks awesome!! Matt did a wonderful job... We have a few wall hangings to put up and we will complete minus the chair & ottoman. I called yesterday to check on the chair and they said it takes 10 - 12 wks and it has already been 6 wks. I guess that's what I get for ordering a chair that needs to be upholstered...

I did something that I never thought I would do... I went to my sister-in-law's yesterday to hang by the pool and get some color. I put on my tankini from last year... Lets just say the next time I want to go to the pool this summer I need to get a maternity bathing suit before then... Matt said I looked cute but still... :(

I hope everyone has a nice week (the weather is supposed to be so nice this coming week). So, until next time - Take care...

Things are coming along so well with the nursery. We are waiting for one more piece of furniture - the upholstered chair & ottoman. Matt is doing such a good job on his project and I can not wait to post the final pics of the nursery. I love to just go stand in there and picture our little man in there with us...

I had my doctors appts this week. Everything is going well with that. The perinatologist said that our next goal is to make it to 32 weeks which is in just 3 wks from now. Can you believe it?? I can't... :) My baby shower is in 3 wks as well and I am getting so excited about that.

Well, this is a short post but I don't have very much to post about. So until next time - take care...

~28 wks

Today marks the the 28th week. I can not believe that I am in my last trimester - we are starting to round turn 4. I ran track in middle school so that is how I see the last part of my pregnancy... This is the time when you kick it in to over drive - start preparing for the little one to come (cross the finish line).

This week has been a busy and exciting week for us. The painters came and now the nursery and all three bathrooms are painted. Thursday night we went and registered. That task seemed so overwhelming at first but it was so much fun. Friday morning the furniture came and I really enjoyed putting the bedding on... This is so exciting. Matt is going to start on a special painting project for the room today. He is a good painter and he is looking forward to this project. Once everything is complete I will post pics of Hudson's nursery.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers...

*Oh, by the way, our friends Kim & Brandon celebrated their 5th anniversary yesterday. So I want to wish them a HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!! We love you guys!!

Take care...

~Happy Mother's Day...

I hope that everyone has a wonderful day today with their families and their Mothers. My parents came into town yesterday just for the day. It was such a nice visit with them. Mom and I talked about my baby shower that will be next month... there will be some good food!! :)

Yesterday marked my 27th week...so I guess that means I am in my last trimester!! Praise the Lord for that!!! I had my reg ob appt on Friday and everything went well. The only problem is that I have gained 19 lbs and the dr asked if there was anything that I could give up... So reluctantly I have to give up my "after dinner deserts" for example ice cream. That is so hard to do but I know it is best for the baby. This week will be a busy one for us. We have someone coming in to paint the nursery and all 3 of the bathrooms. Two of the bathrooms are painted but I want to have them re-painted. Matt would paint the nursery but he is such a perfectionist that it would take him all week to paint one room. He knows this so that is why I am writing it... :) Then on Friday the furniture is being delivered!!! I can not wait!! Also, we are going to start on the gift registry one night this week. I am hoping I don't forget to register for something that I will really need...but you never know with me.

Well, I hope everyone has a GREAT MOTHER'S DAY!!! Take care...

~wk 26

I am now 26 weeks. This pregnancy seems to be going by so fast now that I am getting close to my 3rd trimester. Everything is going well and he has his days of moving like crazy. It is amazing to watch my stomach move as he kicks or hits. Pregnancy is just a miracle from God for sure.

Yesterday we finally cleaned the rest of the stuff out of the nursery. I vacuumed really well, dusted the base boards and wiped down the windows. Hopefully this week we can get the room painted and then have the furniture delivered. I will post pics once we have the room complete. I need to take a before pic of the room before we paint. Also, his bedding was delivered the other week. This is getting very exciting...

Well, that is it for now. I hope you all have a nice weekend. Take care...
