Baby Shower(s)

Braden,
Saturday November 13th we had your baby shower(s). The first one was put on by my moms sunday school class at church. There was a pretty good turn out and you got some great gifts.
The second one was hosted by your aunt lindsay, laura, and barbara. They did an amazing job...again, you got SO many great things!
We registered at babies R us and a lot of things you received were special and handmade. Wow, you are already loved little one! It brought tears to my eyes to see how many people already love you and you aren't even here yet! Just wait, you will have to get used to ladies squeezing your cheeks and kissin on you. No one is gonna love on you more than your momma. I already want to squeeze you! So i apologize in advance.
You sure are making the days hard on mommy. The anticipation is killing me! Everyone says I better enjoy my rest now while I have a chance, but I would stay awake for a week if I had to for you. Hopefully you will like to sleep just as much as I do! I can't wait to put you in the swing BB got you! We are still needing a few things before your arrival. I love you so much Braden.

Love, MOMMY

27 weeks

So we went to get our 3d ultrasound on Saturday and found out that our little man isnt so little! He is weighing 3 lbs with a head in the 98% percentile. He is measuring about 3 weeks ahead of schedule. Momma might need a C Sec afterall! The placenta is still in the same spot, completely covering the cervix, which again....looks like a csection is in the future. I'm ok with that. Then today I had a dr appointment, no news besides the whole placenta thing, and he has some fluid build up in his right kidney which will probably resolve. They say that is common in little boys. and yes he is still a boy! He was being stubborn Saturday and wouldn't turn to get us a good pic. But finally after some pushing and mushing we got a glimpse of his perfect face. I am so in love with him. I can't stop staring. Its so bad when i close my eyes I see his little ultrasound picture lol. I can't wait to hold that little guy. WHo knew I had that much love in me! The girls are excited too! They keep talking to my belly and giving Braden hugs. They are gonig to be great big sisters. I was cleared today for my trip to Vegas with the family and wonderful friends. Time to head out!
Bradens first vacation!
