36 week checkup

33-36 weeks - Honeydew Melon....

So I just had my 36wk checkup. I'm 50% effaced, 1cm dialated, and the baby has dropped to station -2 (or was it +2??? - whichever one is above the bone). She said that was pretty much right on schedule for 36-37 weeks. I don't know, I just don't feel like I'm going to make it 24 more days.

35 WEEKS!!!

More Ultrasound Pics!

I am very thankful for all the wonderful gifts we were given!

How about some 'pre' party family shots???

SURPRISE SHOWER AT WORK!

I suspected it - but wasn't sure, and I sure wasn't expecting what I got! All I can say is that I work with some of the best women you can find! And they know me all too well! Yes, you see a life jacket for Baby T. when he/she gets old enough to go boat riding, lots of froggie outfits, a home made camo baby blanket, pacifiers, camo outfits, green crocs, and a basket of baby goodies. Of course there was more, but too much to name!

Belly Shots!

GRATEFUL AGAIN

Earlier this week a neighbor down the road stopped by with some hand me down items. She was on her way to take them to Kings Daughters but wanted to give me the baby stuff if I wanted it. I ended up getting another car seat and base, a bassinet, a snugli carrier, johnny jump up, baby blankets, a baby name book, a tub mat, and a Graco pack-n-play. I don't know how much of it I'll use or pass along to another, but I just wanted to say how grateful I am for the generosity of the people in my community :)

BABY SHOWER

It's been a long day today. Church services this morning, lunch with the in-laws, my baby shower, then Thanksgiving dinner at the church tonight! I have just got to kick my shoes off for the first time all day! First I have to say how much I love this time of year and how "Thankful" I really am for the blessings in my life. I have wonderful family and friends that go out of their way all the time to show love for me and today was just another example of that! DH and I got several nice gifts for the baby and nursery today, and I was surrounded by people who took time out of their busy schedules to "shower" me! (I'm just glad there was no soap involved! ha ha!) I can't wait to see and post the pics that Tiffany took today, but I did get a chance to take some pics of some of the items we received!



There were several cute outfits with ducks and one with Pooh...
A crocheted baby blanket from my mom...
A home made crib comforter made by my grandmother....


And lots of other goodies including gift cards, diapers, wipes, a wipe warmer, bibs, blankets, books, teethers, rattles, and the stuffed tiger in the middle that roars! :)
