GO BUCKS!!

Ok, so we are really getting close at this point...to two major things: 1. Buckeye Football Season and 2. Baby's Birth!! I am pretty sure they are very closely ranked on Daddy's list right now! :) (just kidding!)

I had to laugh when wanting to put on a "buckeye shirt" this morning. Obviously, the ones I have are a good fit for my "normal body" and not my "pregnant body" but this one just seemed to fit perfectly. Best part about it...it was my dad's! He gave it to me about 5 years ago and I have worn it a lot.

I had to laugh this morning because I could just hear him saying "you'll put bumps in it" (which is something he always said to us girls when we asked to borrow a t-shirt or sweatshirt of his)...and yes, I'm putting ONE MAJOR BUMP in this t-shirt. Jacob's response: "I bet this is one bump he wouldn't mind at all."

So true.

Love you Dad. Miss you!

GO BUCKS!!

Closer and closer each day!!



We are really getting close to the end folks...and it's getting exciting! Just rounded 33 weeks and had another tummy check. I took my mom with me this time and she really enjoyed it! She got to hear the baby's heartbeat and feel it move too! Doctor says we are HEAD DOWN which is a real blessing!!

I am told nearly every day that I will grow exponentionally throughout the next 7 weeks...if I even make it that long! :) That's ok...I've also been told it will all be worth it!

We had our parenting class last night with some parents we really look up to. My cousins Ron and Kristen Sherer (parents of 5) opened their home and lives to us and shared with us a lot of what to expect in the coming days, months and years! We are blessed to have such great cousins! Thanks Ron and Kristen, you'll never know how much we appreciate it!! We love you guys!!

So here's to the next 6 weeks...or so :) We love you baby, pray for you daily and can't wait to meet you!

Baby BUMP!

Well BUMP is sooo true. Baby is moving around all of the time now. I am getting foot, elbow, hand or whatever jabbing me multiple times a day. Good to know the little one is active!
Hitting 32 weeks soon and I can't believe that I was once thinking I had 32 weeks to go!! It's amazing how time flies!!

Week 30


Week 31

Baby is GROW, GROW, GROWING!!!! :)




Birthday Fun!!!

So this year I celebrated my 31st Birthday...and what a SURPRISE it was to meet my family at Fiesta Mexicana...to eat my favorite food! Mom, Han, Em and all the kiddos were there to surprise me, and yes, have them bring the Sombrero and sing Happy Birthday to me! FELIZ CUPLEANOS indeed! It was a VERY special day...I really appreciated it and enjoyed spending my favorite day with my favorite people!!


The Whole gang!!!
Allie, Hannah, Zoey, Me, Wyatt, Emily and Walker




Em, Me, Han and Mom

THEN....
On my actual Birthday, Jacob planned an entire day of fun for me. It was great to just be together. I got up when I wanted, finally showered and out the door we went, about 11:30. First stop...FIRST WATCH! YAY for Floridian French Toast!

Jacob had Eggs and Ham Steak and Potatoes...typical! :) We drove around and looked at houses, that we will one day have (no more apartments soon!!) and just spent the day doing fun stuff together. Just before nap time...I decided it was time for a little Rita's. If you haven't experienced Rita's yet...you must! It's AMAZING!!

I also got to have dinner at Longhorn, compliments of my AMAZING mother! Thanks Mom!! Not only for Longhorn, but for birthing me 31 years ago...I appreciate what you had to endure to give me such a great life!!!
