Due Date

I am patiently waiting for our little darling to arrive. I'm in no hurry, but daddy wants him to be here today (May the 4th be with you... silly daddy). No signs that the little man wants to come anytime soon. He seems comfortable.

Today is his EDD (estimated due date).
So I'm 40 weeks or 9 months pregnant.

 

The Nursery

The nursery has been a work in progress for quite some time now...

Stage One... taped off

 

Stage Two... texture

 

Stage Three... paint (ceiling, walls, and trim)

 

Stage Four... the wall

 






Stage Five... the dresser (don't be deceived... Anthony did most of the work)

 






Stage Six... choosing manly decor

 






and Finally... it is finished

Ready to POP!

I'm 39 weeks + 2 days in this picture...

We are wondering whether William will have an April birthday or May?

(probably May)

Maternity Photos

Today we went to Bandon to take some maternity pictures. It was so much fun :) We loved having KamBria as our photographer. Luckily we got all of the pictures done in between the rain showers! And I didn't start to get too swollen until closer to the end.

Despite the wind we got some really good ones... We'll get to see more in a few weeks, but these are my favorites so far:

Are We There Yet?

So... we are 5 weeks away from little William's expected due date.
Oh boy am I ready! I love growing this little guy inside of my belly, but he sucks all of my energy.

6 months - 132lbs. 

7 months - 139lbs.

8 months - 145lbs.

As you can see... William had a major growth spurt between 6 and 7 months!

I am actually wearing the same shirt in the first and last pictures (you can see how much I stretch it out now!)



I love this little guy so much and I can't wait until he is in my arms!

A New Year

This precious little boy is going to enter the world this year. 

So we are excited to have him in our family!

Christmas Cheer

20 weeks - half way!!!

All dressed up for a wedding.
20 weeks on December 20th

I've been told that this picture is slightly deceiving as to how much I was actually "showing" at this point. I guess dresses just really accentuate the belly when you're pregnant ;)

Thankful For Our Baby Boy

16 weeks - 122lbs.

 

At almost 17 weeks my wonderful midwife let us have a little peek at our precious darling. We found out that he is a boy! We told everyone at Thanksgiving :)

The First Trimester

Well... The first trimester has come to an end... and boy am I glad! Being sick while at a school all day is just not fun! Here are some pictures of the "progress":

13 weeks - 117lbs.

7.5 weeks - 124lbs.

 11 weeks - 124lbs.
