Maebrie IS HERE!!

On Monday, October 8th, Maebrie was finally born. It took her long enough to decide to enter the world but we are very thankful that she is here and everything is okay. Jeremy and I went to see her on Wednesday when she got home. Whenever, I hold her, Addie kicks her in the back!! They are already fighting. It cracks me up.

Adalynn's First Hog Game

On Saturday, October 13th, Adalynn attended her first Razorback game in utero of course. It was very loud and so she was rocking and rolling the whole time. We went to the game with Aunt Tasha and Uncle Eric and then the extra grandparents, Mike and Karen. The Hogs lost but we still had a great time.

Before the game, Tasha, Addie and me had our picture made with some of the basketball players. We are pictured with Patrick Beverley and Stefan Welsh. Patrick rubbed my belly!!! Maybe, if we are lucky she has some basketball magic!!! Everyone knows Jeremy and I are NOT basketball players.

Yates' Family Shower

We had our Yates' Family Shower on Saturday, October 13th. Jeremy's aunt Becky, cousins Lindsey and Tiffani and Grandmother Yates were the hostesses. Again, we received so many neat things. Each shower has kind of been themed. This shower was definitely the blanket shower. We have blankets now!!! Which is good because we didn't have a lot of them.

We are very thankful to everyone for their thoughtfulness during our showers.

Mansfield Baby Shower

We had our shower on Saturday, September 23rd in Mansfield with our family and friends. This shower could have themed "the outfit shower." We got so many clothes and they are all so cute. We are so excited for Addie to get here and wear them. This shower was hosted by my aunts. They are going to be great aunts for the first time and we love them so much!!!

Dr. Appointment Week 32

This Thursday will be week 32, possibly week 33 depending on who you ask. So I had a doctor's appointment today with Dr. Gorman. He reported that I looked good and that my belly was a little larger than he would expect. However, I haven't gained any weight since my last visit. Which seems kinda bizarre, especially if you have seen me recently!!

Adalynn had a great heart beat!!

I did talk Dr. Gorman into giving us a second ultrasound. So we can see her again. I am very excited about that. He agreed because of the skepticism of the due date. Everyone just pray that she is a GIRL!! If not we are in trouble.

Mom received the material for the bedding, last Monday. However, when she did the prewashing the black material faded!!! So now I am having to deal with that. Hopefully, Addie will someday have baby bedding.

In other baby news:

• We are still waiting on Maebrie to arrive. If Jamie doesn't do something soon, her doctor will induce Wednesday, the 10th.
• Anna Beth, Nina's baby, is a week behind us but if Nina doesn't keep her sugar levels good, Anna Beth may beat Addie into the world!
• Jordan and Susan just found out last week they are having a boy!
• Sarah and Brad will find out this weekend what their baby is going to be!!
  

Razorbacks and Presents

We spent this last weekend just relaxing. A weekend off was so nice. On Friday afternoon, we came home with packages on the door step. So of course we opened them. We didn't wait for the shower that is this weekend. We received the Pack 'N Play from Grandma Bec and Pop. We also received some gifts from my sister. She sent us, the frog bathtub toy scoop, a robe, a hooded towel and the Womb Sounds Teddy Bear. We loved it all!!!

On Saturday, we watched the Razorbacks play. We had Uncle Matt and Aunt Mary Kim over to watch the game with us and Uncle Randy. Jeremy smoked some steaks that way I could eat one, too. After a sad loss, we played some board games which I became somewhat delirious because it was so late.

Things are still going well this is week 30 of the pregnancy. We have our 2nd shower this weekend. I am starting to waddle more as the day goes on and am starting to feel somewhat enormous. We will keep pushing forward only 10 more weeks.

We are very excited that Maebrie will be here soon! Only two more weeks for Jamie!

The Addie Update

Well, last week I went to the doctor for my 28 week check up. I got brave and asked the doctor if there was anyway we could begin discussing the induction of Addie on November 21st. This would be the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and give me exactly 6 weeks to get back to work. Her response was that they would probably be willing to do it, however, if I had not began dilating and my cervix had not thinned, it would be pointless. She said that would probably result in a c-section. So I decided that we would play it by ear and see how things start progressing.

The next shower is September 23rd. The hostesses are my aunts on my mom's side of the family. This will be the Mansfield shower for family and friends. We keep getting the coolest gifts and can't wait to use them all on Addie!!!

We are both back to school. It seems like there is soooo much work stuff to get done before Addie comes and not a whole lot of time to do it in. I have met Anna the lady who will be keeping Addie when I go back to work and she seems super perfect. We are very excited to have found her.

My cousin Jordan and his wife Susan, are getting ready to find out what their baby is going to be and we are extremely anxious to see if we will have two baby girls or one of each.

My best bud, Jamie and her husband Matt are due on October 4th with Addie's best friend, Maebrie. We can't wait to meet her.

We are hoping for a calm and peaceful next few months!!

We love you all and thanks for checking the site!!!
