Wow, 9 months now! Technically as of today, I am 37 weeks + 2 days pregnant. As of last Sunday I am considered full term! Remember back in week 32 when I went into pre term labor? Doctors thought I wouldn't make it. Well here I am! YIPPEE! =)
I think baby was just testing us to see if we were ready LOL. I was NOT then, but I am now!!! Well actually, were as ready as we can be at this point. Since we are not moving until after he's born the plan is for him to stay in our room, the changing table and dresser in Ashley's room, until he's about 3 months old, when we move.
We have received such wonderful gifts so far! As I said before, Kurt's mom and dad sent a wonderful handmade quilt and a couple of things that were Kurt's when he was a baby. My mother got us an awesome stroller/carseat combo and a bassinett. My aunt Debbie got us the swing (those are soooo great) and a vibrating bouncer. My aunt Kathy got us baby clothes and is making a baby blanket and pillow, embroidered with baby's name, when we decide on it, lol (she does this with each child born in our family). My sis Shannon got the baby more clothes and his first pack of diapers. My sis Tiffany got the baby bath tub. Then we got more clothes and blankets galore!
My Grandpa Bill and Grandma Patsy came into town week before last for Tiffany's wedding. We haven't seen them in over 5 years! They spent July 3rd - 8th here, before they went back to there summer place in Colorado (they actually live in Texas). My Uncle Gary also came up from California and brought along some cute lil newborn clothes and diaper wraps (someone remember were doing cloth diapers!). I went shopping with Grandma while she was here and she bought the baby's Pack n Play.
We have been pretty fortunate to recieve such great gifts, including from a few friends and neighbors. We wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone! |
