Gatesville Shower

My mom had a shower for me in Gatesville with the help of my aunts and cousins. It was so beautiful and I had so much fun visiting with family and friends. I don't get to get together much with my family, so it was really nice. My aunts went together to get my car seat and stroller system, which was very sweet of them and Reese got so many beautiful clothes, hairbows, and goodies. I am very blessed to have 4 aunts and tons of cousins that are always there for me and love me very much. My mom wrote a very sweet poem to us as well, that we will treasure. Here are some pictures from the shower!

7 weeks to go or less

Well, I am almost 33 weeks now. I went to the doctor today and everything looks great! Reese is doing good and growing quickly. The doctor said she will probably induce labor at least a week early because Reese is big and she wants to make sure that I can have her naturally. Which is great news considering at the beginning we were scared she wouldn't grow. All the prayers, love, and support have helped! Reese's room is getting closer so I hope to post pictures soon. I am realizing and I am going to be a mommy very soon and couldn't be more thrilled. I am feeling good, except I am starting to get tired again like I did during the first trimester.

Couple's Baby Shower from Mandy, Erin, and Erin

We had a couple's baby shower yesterday hosted by Mandy Roper, Erin Heflin, and Erin Roper. It was so beautiful and we had a blast. It was so nice to visit with friends and the guys had a great time too. The girls stayed inside and talked baby and caught up on old times, while the boys stayed outside and played washers. It was such a nice shower and Reese got lots of great stuff. Chris and I are very blessed to have such wonderful friends!!

3D Ultrasound

Chris and I took 3D pictures yesterday. It was amazing! Grandmas got to come and watch also. Reese wanted to play peek-a-boo and keep her hands on her face the whole time, but we got some good pictures. She was also kicking like crazy during the whole ultrasound. It was a wonderful experience and I am so glad we did it. It is amazing seeing this tiny person move in my belly!

28 week picture

I am now 28 weeks and in my third trimester! It is going by soo fast! Last night I was reading to Chris what me and the baby should be doing(a weekly calendar I get) and I started crying. I guess it's the hormones mixed with anticipation. I am just so excited to bring a baby into our family and can't wait for her to be here!
