37 Weeks and 1 day: I am officially FULL TERM! Can you believe it? I can't. I must say that it feels pretty darn good to be able to say that though. And to know she is still moving around like crazy and from what we know is still very healthy! I feel beyond fortunate for this little peanut (she may not be so little though - since I am ravenous and feel like I have put on 50 lbs in the past 2 weeks)! As of now, she is breech. Very comfortable and doesn't feel like going anywhere. We have a scheduled c-section for October 7th! We will be celebrating our 3 year anniversary (October 6th) with a beautiful little girl coming into our family! We will see what happens - she may have a plan of her own and decide to come early or flip last minute and everything will change!
New Camera: Yup - I got (or should I say WE got) a new camera! It is supposed to be a joint birthday/anniversary gift for Greg and I both! But I don't know if he loves it as much as I do! I am slowly becoming obsessed with it. It is amazing and he did such a great job picking it out! Thanks honey - you are the best (even though I don't think you read this blog - ha)! I haven't had much time to sit down and read the manual and figure it all out - but so far I LOVE it. It has an auto setting which is nice so that I can go ahead and start taking pictures without being an expert. It is a Nikon and just the clarity on the auto setting is amazing! I can't wait to learn more about how to use it and all its features. Camden and Baby D might not appreciate it so much - but too bad! Camden already had a mini photo shoot - I think he is used to it now though! Here are a couple:
Baby D's Room: We got her furniture yesterday! OMG - I just love it! Poor thing has a VERY SMALL room - but at least she has beautiful furniture! Good thing babies don't need a lot of space - not so good that all their stuff does! I realized yesterday that it isn't our house anymore, it is all for her! Every nook and cranny of our small little house is full of her stuff! Not complaining though, I love it all! :) My mom and Greg helped so much yesterday and we got it all set up. I have lots more organizing to do and decorating in the bedroom but we are off to a great start! Thank you Mom and Dad - we absolutely love the furniture and know she will too (thank you for all the help yesterday too)! We really appreciate everything!
Some pics:
The Boys: Brandon is still with the Orioles and making his way around the country. He had his first start in Detroit and his first home start against Toronto! So exciting to see him on tv and playing in Camden Yards. He is doing a great job and we hope to see him on the field some more before the season ends! Michael is doing well down in FL. He is packing on some pounds, trying to get as strong as me! ha! But is running lots and his back is feeling good. Matthew is loving Mississippi still and made a trip to New Orleans recently for an Ole Miss foot ball game. Can't wait to hear those stories! He should be able to start hitting in a week! We also can't forget the little boys in the family that are excelling in sports! Jack and Wyatt's football season has started. Jack is playing for the Grizzly's again this year and is kicking some butt! He had his first official game last weekend. We can't wait to get out there and watch him play! Wyatt is playing flag football and is just the cutest thing out there! It is a pretty funny age to watch playing, that is for sure!
90th Birthdays: Two very special and amazing ladies in my life celebrated their 90th birthdays this month. My Grammy Snyder and Greg's Granny both turned 90. Long story - but after Greg and I got together, the obviously met. They discovered that they were born 4 days apart (my Grammy always making sure we know she is 4 days older) and very close to each other in the state of NJ! They have since become wonderful friends and they have a very special relationship! Cheers to 90 ladies!
Tex: Last but definitely not least is Tex! My new nephew that will be here on October 4th. Yup - he will be joining the family a couple days before Baby D! So exciting! Tex is Brandon and Lindsey's absolutely adorable four legged, furry little boy! There are no words to describe the cuteness factor that he comes with! We can't wait to meet him!
