Almost Ready

Here are some updated pictures of the nursery. We're in awe of how generous everyone has been to fill the closet and drawers. All we need is baby.

Is this what they call Nesting?

While John's been covering the brief Spurs playoff run, I've been busy. I finished the babies room and got a little bored. I'm not sure if you would call it "nesting" or just obsessive. I started out wanting to make a few burp cloths for friends, it turned into a monster. I think I made 27 burp cloths (+10 for friends), 4 bibs, and 14 wash cloths. There is more fabric arriving today. It became necessary to make lots of burp cloths because I couldn't decide on which fabric/style would be best. I went all over the web stealing great ideas until I stumbled on a pattern for bibs (you can see where this is going). Then I thought about these velour/chenille wash cloths that Rhonda swears by. She received them as a gift for her first child 10 years ago and still uses them. Naturally I went there. Anyway, here's proof of my obsession.

OMG! She's Huge!

Every pregnant lady loves to hear how big they are...right? Ok, maybe not so much, but it's what happens and we're (Christine) doing an awesome job of trying to embrace that as we enter the home stretch. We should have a wonderful little daughter with us in less than a month!

Ready For Kickoff

Big thanks to Ian and Matt for sending us this. Our daughter should just be able to fit into it come football season and lord knows the Ags will need all the support they can get at that point.

Graduation Complete

Childbirth will be a piece of cake now. Guaranteed.

Baby Shower Photos

Here are some pictures from our first ever baby shower! We got a ton of great stuff and can't be thankful enough for everyone that gifted us!

Crib Assembly

I feel that all the John fans have been neglected. Thought we needed some pictures of John proving his manhood while assembling the crib. Those instructions are cryptic but he got the job done. All we need now is a mattress and sheets.

Update: Here's Some Video

From last Tuesday's appointment, I present some heartbeats.

30 Week Checkup

Here's the doc listening to the baby's heartbeat. It was strong and around 130 beats per minute. Everything was ok and she goes back in two weeks. Ultrasound/sonogram will be coming in five weeks when she is at 35 weeks.
