week 35

This week a friend did an ultrasound and Jack is already weighing 6lbs 11 oz. What a big boy. Even my friend thinks they got the dates wrong, but they didn't. He is just BIG. We go to the doctor next Tuesday. It is hard to believe he will be here in a few weeks.

week 34

I am HUGE!!!!Went to the doctor this week and I have gained four more lbs...that is 8 in 4 weeks. What in the world. The doctor is saying that I am holding a lot of fluid and the baby is measuring big. However, my blood pressure and everything else is great. I am starting to get really tired during the day, which is weird. I am just used to GO GO GO and my body won't let me do that anymore. This weekend my mom and I finished getting the things that we needed like the monitor, daiper champ, etc. Then I worked on getting all the baby stuff organized and put up. Daddy put together the stroller and installed the car seat. We praticed pushing around Quack not Jack.

The shower week 33

The shower was beautiful. It was given by Jess, Meg, Aunt Carroll, Amanda, Lindy, Deonna, and her mom Donna. The attention to detail was out of this world. There were so many things that were made and this made it extra special. My Aunt Carroll made the flower arrangement that was beautiful. The cake was brought by Lindy and was the cutest cake I have ever seen (plus Yummy). Amanda made the most adorable little diapers that held nuts. Jess hand tied the silverware with different colored ribbon and my Aunt Nancy made the centerpiece. It was so unique....I loved it!!!!!!!! There was so much yummy food. We had everything from humus to chicken salad to fruit and cheese. Everyone worked so hard and did so much for this event. It was unbelievable. Then there were all the guest that came. We had around 30 people. The lake group came, several of my friends from the hospital in Auburn, and my really close friends and family were there. It is so amazing to feel the love from everyone for my little Jack. Thank you to everyone You did way too much and also thank youto those that took the time to come and help us celebrate this special day. We love you.

Week 33

This has been a crazy week, but the nursery is done. Yeah Daddy!!! I have had severe sinus issues, but so has everyone else in the South. I had so much stuff going on with work and had to keep going; however, on Thursday Jack gave me a big scare. I started bleeding and he didn't move for over 12 hours. I was so scared. We went to Labor and Delivery and they monitored us for about an hour. And guess what, he was started moving again. The doctor said everything was fine, but that I needed to slow down. I had an event that night that I did not attend after this happened. I guess this was God was of making me slow down.

Today is the day of my last baby shower and I am so excited. Jess, Chris, and Logan got here yesteraday around 1. Then my mom came over and helped me finish cleaning and wanted to visit with everyone. Amanda and Kennedy made it around 4. She is so tiny; She really is like a baby doll. Logan was flirting a little but thats ok bc he can practice until Jack gets here. Kennedy is Jack's girlfriend, but she will bring him a hottie once they get a little older. Uncle Bud, Aunt Carroll, and Nana came by shortly after and we had a wonderful visit. Then Josh, Meg, and Kenzie arrived around 6. There are babies everywhere. I love it. Our house is perfect with all the children here. I am having so much fun, I can't stand it. I am going to be sad when everryone leaves, but in the mean time........I can't wait to see everything at the shower. I know everyone has worked so hard and put so much love into the things they have done.

Week 32

Ok. I am starting to get to the not so fun part. First, I went to the doctor and gained 4lbs in 2 weeks and I am not eating any different. Baby is measuring big but we will see what happens. I am having issues with my hands, fingers, and sometimes my arms going numb and or burning, so the doctor put me in wrist splints at night. It's nothing that can affect the baby, just carpel tunnel that is aggrevaited by pregnancy. Other than that everything seems good. Just getting big. Jack seems happy and content so that is all that matters. Big brother Zach came this weekend and is excited about the arrival of his little brother. We had a great visit.
