more pictures from Montgomery shower

Laura was nice enough to email me tons of pictures from the Montgomery shower. There were a few I could not resist and have to share!!!

37 weeks

Making it to 37 weeks is so exciting. If Aubrey comes today, they would consider her full term and she would still be healthy. Very happy about this milestone! Went to the doctor on Thursday and he confirmed that her head was down and she was starting to make her way. I am not close to delivery and they think we will go a couple more weeks. I measured my belly with the toilet paper again... I am up to 11 squares. Not but one more than my Birmingham shower, but boy does my belly look big! I don't even want to know how many inches each square is!!!

Here is a picture from my Zeta Legacy shower in Montgomery, AL. Laura Upton & Stephaine Horne hosted the shower and I had such a great time. Aubrey got plenty of clothes and many Zeta items. Everything was just too cute!

we are getting closer!

It is hard to believe that we have less than 4 weeks until her due date. That means she could be here in 2 to 6 weeks!!!! Very exciting stuff :) It has been a while since I have updated the blog, and I am sorry!!! We have had a couple of showers since the last update and have finished her room. I do not have any pictures from the showers as I did not bring my camera, but I hope to have to pictures from the hostesses soon! (hint, hint)!!! The overflow of love has been so appreciated. Aubrey Lynn has so many great toys, clothes, equipment, etc! Everything is washed and organized. I have packed her diaper bag and have everything she will need to come home with us when she arrives! I think all I have left is to pack my bag and I plan to do that soon... just in case!!!! Her room is perfect and I enjoy just walking by it. The dogs love the Greek furry rug that is in her room... a little present from her memaw and papaw so she will always have their loving comfort in her room! I think Byron knows something is coming, he has been a big momma's boy lately. Bailey is even becoming my shadow too! My walks with the dogs are getting harder but I am trying not to let them suffer too much :) The chiropractor is keeping my hips in check as they keep shifting to make room for her departure!!! Sleep is impossible without my sleeping pills prescribed by the doctor :)

Thursday is my next doctors appointment. I will start going every thursday until Aubrey arrives. Friday the 12th is my last day of work as I am taking vacation until she comes. My energy level is low and I am looking forward to some down time before she gets here!

Steve is getting excited too. It has been such a great experience for the both of us and I feel even closer to him through this adventure! Maybe he will update the blog soon... we shall see, he is the one who started this blog and you see who is somewhat keeping up with it!!!

sending out lots of love!

Sandy's Belly at 32.5 weeks along

I forgot to add the picture of how big I have gotten. When they measured Aubrey on the 4D scan, they said she was 4lbs and 14oz... wow! 7 more weeks to go and we are already close to 5lbs!!! Wow, she might be a big baby like her mom was!!!

32 week ultrasound - 4D

Today we were able to get the 4D scan of Aubrey. Unfortunantly she was almost too old to get a good picture and when we did have an opportunity, she had her hands around her face. We did get to see her sucking on her wrist (which was very cute)!!! I think she has my chubby checks so I can't wait to kiss them! Besides her checks, it was really hard to see who she looks like. I guess we just have to wait and see :)



Her little feet are below:

Aug 2nd baby shower

My dear, dear neighbors threw a shower for Aubrey on Aug 2nd. We had such a great time. All the details were just amazing! The girl clothes and blankets are just toooo cute! The games were a lot of fun and just a joy to have a time to celebrate her arrival!

Nursery in progress

We have slowly been putting the finishing touches on the nursery. All we have left is for our friend to come and paint a tree and few extra bugs on the wall!!! We are getting really excited and counting down the weeks for her arrival... only 9 weeks left as of today!
