35 weeks...6 Pounds

Here are a few pictures from the Bible Study Shower:

We headed to Texas State for Halloween weekend. We had fun tailgating with all the college kids. It was an experience to be nearly 8 months pregnant and be surrounded by a bunch of frat boys. I felt pretty old!

Things are speeding up! I am starting to panic thinking not everything is done--especially when I went to the doctor today and she informed me that Davis now weighs six pounds! The doctor is concerned about my fluid level and thinks she might have to induce me early. I have mixed feelings about this--I love being pregnant! It is such a miracle to feel Davis move all the time--sometimes I will wake up in the middle of the night to him moving and turning. I know that he is safe right now too! Nobody can get to him without going through me! But on the other hand I cannot wait to meet him and see his precious face for the first time. I go back on Monday to see a specialist and hopefully he will be able to give us more insight as to when Davis will get to hit Earth.

The past 35 weeks have made me really thank GOD for my blessings. We have been surrounded by so many great friends and families at several showers. My friend Eileen is throwing me a shower for work friends and our amazing Sunday School class is throwing us a "stock the library shower." From the bottom of my heart thank you to all our friends and family who have really shown us so much love the past 35 weeks. We cannot wait to introduce you to baby Davis.

Things that weigh 4 pounds!

Things that weigh 4 pounds: laptops, small puppies, large squash and DAVIS! Yes, as of our 31 week appointment Davis now weighs 4 pounds. The doctor was very happy with how he is growing. He is moving more and more everyday--and his movement has gone from a light flutter to all out punching and kicking! Last night he moved so far over onto my right side that my stomach was out of proportion. My favorite thing to do is push on him and he will now push back--especially at night. I cannot believe in just about 6 weeks he will be here! I am so curious to see what he looks like.

Two weekends ago my family through me an AMAZING shower! It was one of the best days! I was surrounded by wonderful family and friends--I felt so blessed. I cannot wait to show Davis all the pictures and tell how how loved he is already.

This past weekend we went to San Marcos and suprised my mother-in-law for her birthday. We had a great time and bought part of the "going home" outfit. Davis is now the proud owner of a Santa hat and booties! Jason refuses to let me buy the Santa or Rudolph outfit so this seems like a good compromise. We tailgated at the Texas State game--and I have never felt so old. Being pregnant around a bunch of college kids was an experience. It made me miss college a little--until Davis kicked and I looked at Jason and thought "I am happy just where we are!"
