38 Weeks





We are just under 2 weeks! As much as I would love to say that time has flown by, it seems like this last month is taking forever! It's okay, I'm sure we need every minute we have to get totally prepared! We have been very blessed to have had 4 beautiful showers! The first was thrown by my high school friends for Kara and I at the Wrought Iron grill in Owosso on Feb 6th. Then on the 7th we had another thrown by the Aunt's on my mom's side of the family for Alisa and I at Baker College. The car was loaded to the top on our way back to Kalamazoo! We got sooo many nice things! Then, one of my girlfriends, Jeanine, threw me a shower for our friends here in Kalamazoo on February 18th and then on the 21st the Aunt's on the Skok side of the family threw Kara and I a beautiful shower back in Owosso. We are now all set for this baby to arrive! I'm not sure there really is anything else we will need!

I went to the Doctor yesterday and they said that I am dilated 2 cm now and still measuring right on for March 10th. They did say that my blood pressure has been high, so they hooked me up to a fetal monitor for about 20 minutes to make sure the baby wasn't in distress, and he is doing perfectly fine! They want me to come back on Friday to check it again. In the meantime, the Doctor took me off of work until we get my labs back and check my blood pressure again. I guess it's good because it gives me time to update things like this-which I have been lacking! I've been having some contractions, and Ryan loves to hear that because he is hoping that it means we are getting closer! For some reason I think we will have him next week, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

We completed all of our baby classes last week and are as ready as we can be to become parents! Hopefully the next time I update this blog, it will have pictures of our new little baby! Thank you to everyone for your generosity and prayers!
