She Said

We've finally finished decorating the nursery. Lance did an amazing job painting the dinosaurs and the "Taylor" letters are from a friend of mine who sells wall letters.

My husband put a new ring tone on his phone for when I called...I just thought I'd share...

Okay, so 9 weeks left...that's doable right? My feet are swollen to the size of large hams, I have awful heartburn and apparently I snore now and could "put a sasquatch to shame." But for the most part I have had an ideal pregnancy so I can't complain. The nursery is all finished and ready for Taylor. We ordered letters from one of our friends to put on the wall...that will complete the exciting dinosaur mural. I'll post pictures of the nursery once we get that up. Lance did an amazing job on the dinosaurs, they are pretty awesome! My baby shower was a couple of weeks ago and was great. Taylor is going to be one well dressed baby girl We got a ton of cute clothes!

My brother's graduate recital was today and I was very sad to have missed it...I hear he did a fantastic job. I am trying to keep myself rested up and not take too many trips so I can make it to his wedding. I'm actually almost finished with their wedding present, which is pretty amazing because normally I would be up til 4am the night before trying to get it done. I guess I shouldn't speak too soon because it's not quite finished yet...

Rusty is acclimating to his life on the floor and out of the nursery. He still thinks he's in trouble though and pouts a whole lot! Hopefully he won't be too upset when we bring home a tiny squalling baby.

Well...I am posting a 31 week picture...I'm not sure it's the best idea to publicize myself this large but here it is!

I haven't had time to sit and write for a while because we have been so busy. First of all, we're almost done with all the furniture moving and cleaning out the nursery, I'll post pics of the nursery once everything is all set up. Abby moved into our New Castle house on Thursday...we still have some roof issues to sort out but now it will be much easier since someone is there all the time to let us know what is going on. My shower is today and I am super excited The ladies are over at the church building now decorating but I have to wait 4 more hours to go over! But perhaps the most exciting part of the week was our 3D ultrasound. It was pretty amazing how detailed everything was. We saw her yawning and you could see her little tongue moving. She was being pretty stubborn for the first half...her leg was up over her head in front of her face and she was holding it there with one of her hands. Then she stuck both her legs up over her head right before she crossed both of her legs and stuck them in her mouth and started to chew vigorously. The ultrasound tech just laughed at how flexible she was and said we'd better be prepared for a soccer player or a ballerina. Either one would be fine, but I kind of hope for the ballerina because I don't know anything about soccer I'm posting some pics from the ultrasound below, the first is her sticking both her feet in her mouth (I just think it's funny) and the second is one of her little face. She's a little over 2 pounds and about 15 inches long now just to give you an idea of the scale of these pictures. I'm so glad that my student's spring break is next week...I'm going to need a week to recoperate!
