4 more days till the Due date!

Wow! It is almost time. I am ready to meet this little one and so is Jo. My mom got here on Tuesday night and it has been great. I haven't done dishes all week and mom did the laundry today! I LOVE IT!!! The help is much appreciated and is even better because it comes from my mom.

We are just in the waiting phaase right now. No action yet and just some contractions, nothing to really get excited about. I just want to make it to March 2nd and then he can come anytime. I am tired of working, but I think that has more to do with the fact that I am just tired from not sleeping well. I know Jo is ready for me to sleep and not move so much.

Hoping to add some pictured of Jo and I this weekend and then the next ones will be Bryce. I can't wait!!!

19 DAYS!! Wow that puts it in Perspective!

I just looked at the little ticker at the top of my page and was a little floored that it was only 19 more days till my due date. WOW!!! It seems like it is going a lot faster here at the end than I thought it would.
I had an appointment on Monday the 7th and another one on Monday the 14th. So far so good. No progression and Bryce is in the proper position.

We are really getting excited to meet him.

That is all I have time for right now. Will update more later.

Less than 6 Weeks!!!

Wow, I thought this time would slow down and feel like it was moving at a snails pace. Lets just say I don't think so! These last two weeks have flown and I feel like we have so much more to do. Below are some pictures of the nursery. It is almost done, but I do have a few things to add. I need to get a lamp for the room and a shelf to put up and have things on. Other than that we are done with the nursery and it feels great.





Bryce has been moving around more and more or I am just feeling it more and more. He likes to kick me on the right side and punch down low. I just hope I am not black and blue inside from all his movements. The next appointment is Monday and then I get to start going every week. That sounds like so much fun (Ha Ha).

I know my mom is getting really excited and will be here on the 22nd of February so that she is here for the birth. I know he will not come before that or at least I hope so.

This is just getting really exciting and I can't wait to meet this little one!

Less than 8 weeks left!!!

It is getting so close and I am trying to wrap up some of the final things to make sure we are ready for this little one. Jo is trying to get a lot of his overnight trips over by mid February so that he can be home and not out in the field when Bryce decides it is time to join us.

We are almost done with our birth classes and they have been so worth it. You can only read so much, but having a professional in the field that will answer any question you have is great. It is a small class and we have a lot of fun. We are all having boys which is funny to me.

I have finally started to feel some of the pregnancy pains that people talk about, but I figure if this is all I have to endure to get him here I can do it. He finally made me poke out very noticeably and people are commenting. I feel very fortunate that I have been able to have such an uneventful pregnancy and have such great health. Jo has been wonderful and only laughs at me when I cry for no reason. We are both really excited for Bryce to be here, but do not want to rush him. I keep telling him everyday that he needs to wait till at least March 5, that way I don't have to go back to school till after Spring break and then only a few more weeks and I'll be out for the summer.

We made a decision about daycare today and I am really excited about it. It is only about 2 miles from our house and is small with not a lot of kids. She is a very nice lady and the place is very nice so I can feel comfortable with Bryce there.

Okay that is probably enough rambling today so I will sign off.
