The past couple of weeks, Charley and I have been blessed with two showers that truly helped get us started to get ready for baby. The sweet girls at the dance studio that I work at surprised me with a small shower! It was so sweet of them and a wonderful little evening of petite fours (my fave!) and cute gifts. :) Last Sunday, my sister-in-laws and dear friends threw an AMAZING baby shower at Julie's house. It was so great to see friends and family and share in the excitement of Fisher. We were so blessed with so many great and much needed gifts! His nursery is starting to fill up, and although there is still LOTS left to get for him, every little bit is a great help.I can't believe there are only 5 weeks left! Everyone keeps telling us to enjoy this last time together. While we are doing so, I am also starting to feel ready to start this new chapter in our lives. Its hard to grapple my mind around all the changes about to come, and am concerned about how to handle sleep deprivation haha. Yet, I can't wait to see the sweet face of our son and be a family of three! (well four...can't forget our darling Lola!)
Starting this week, I will be going to the doctor every week until delivery, so I'll try to be a better blogger and update our "progress." I have been subbing off and on, and it still surprises me how much I miss working sometimes. I am looking forward to my new full time job that will start soon though! Little Fisher has been QUITE the active kicker, and nothing is better than seeing the look on a person's face when they feel him move! That is truly the best part about pregnancy, and it really makes up for some of the not-so-pleasant things. :) (hehe)
In the meantime, we are dealing with some fun plumbing issues that in turn is getting us brand new carpet in our basement. We are glad this decided to happen before we get a brand new baby! :) We also just celebrated the one year birthday of our precious, wonderful niece Caroline! She is just a light in all our lives and I am looking forward to introducing her to her cousin!
PS - Lots more pics on Facebook, I have trouble posting here!
