Baby Showers & Updates

This past Saturday was my family baby shower at Grandma Nan's and then Cosy threw me one last night for lots of my friends. They were both great!! Yummy food and even better company! I have gotten the CUTEST things from all our family and friends!! They seriously are the best! I'm a spaz and spaced taking pictures of the one last night... but have a few from Grandma Nan's on Saturday. Thanks everyone for helping and coming and making these showers so fun!!
I can't believe how tiny her clothes are! Things are SO much cuter when they're little. I love it. Me and my sister-in-law Michelle enjoying Grandma Nan's yummy dessert.
All the goodies from the family shower... SO CUTE! We got too much! Thanks everyone!!!

I was doing her laundry last night and it just made me SO anxious for her to be here! I can't believe her tiny little body will be filling up those clothes in the next couple weeks. We have officially narrowed down the few things we still need to get her before the big debut. Ahh I thought we'd never be ready!!

36 Week Appointment:
This morning we went in for my 36 week appt so from here on out we're meeting weekly. That is nuts. I thought the day would never come. She still looks great and is measuring over 6 lbs. Also some great news... even if she goes the full 40 weeks doc said she shouldn't be more than about 8 1/2 lbs... I think I can handle that!! Ohhh, and he checked my cervix and I'm a dilated to a whopping 1/2 a centimeter and 60% effaced. Hey... at least it's something right? Haha. So now we'll just have to keep seeing how everything progresses from here on out! Her head is super low and I'm definitely feelin' it. Walking is a joyous time for me now... I look like such a penguin, it's quite pathetic. Oh well, at least she's down and getting ready!

P.S.- Cousin Britney Garner!! I got your package today and loved every little thing in it!! You are so sweet... thanks so much again!!

Sorry again that i couldn't be there... we'll see each other soon enough! :]

As far as you dialing and being effaced... I'm jealous! Just remember when i checked into the hospital at 39 weeks... i was at an absolute ZERO!!! So you're doing great!!
She'll be here before you know it!

Your welcome! Hope everything goes well for you and you don't have a painful labor. Just remember - get the epidural! It makes everything heavenly! You even get a catheter (sp?) - and that is always nice! lol
