The Nursery is Done!!! (Finally)

Well, it's only taken us since April to get Anna Kate's nursery done. I just wanted it to be perfect and I'm so happy with the way it all came together. Last night Brad and Taylor came over to help us put some last minute things together. Today my parents and Taylor's mom (Mrs. Nancy) came over to help with the finishing touches! So many people have helped me get this nursery ready for our little girl.....Thank you to all who have helped!!! I don't think these pictures do it justice....you need to come see it in person!

Her crib (my Aunt Carol made all of her bedding)

I got this organizer from Target, baskets from Lowes, Carol made the basket covers. Aunt Lizzie made the "A" sign, Nanny gave us the jewelry box and Allyson Lake gave us the piggy bank. Mindy and Casey's mom, Mrs. Susan, painted the pictures...she is so talented!

I love her window treatment.....I think it came out so cute!!

Her glider and stool....Mrs. Susan also painted the stool.

Her dresser/changing table

Her closet

Her bow holder that I need to add more ribbon to since this one is full!

A growth chart that Ginny gave us. Mrs. Nancy added the bow today!

And last but not least.......AK's bag we will take to the hospital when she decides she is ready to come! Taylor gave us the precious bag.

38 Weeks 3 Days

We had a doctor visit today. Everything continues to check out great. I was checked again today.....still 1 cm and 50% thinned but AK is no longer "high." She has dropped and her head is very low. So, now it's just a waiting game as to when she wants to come out. Her heart rate was in the 140's. Here is a belly picture at 38 weeks 3 days.....my belly was measuring 39 weeks today.

Shower with Exercise Friends!

Yesterday I had a shower at Rucker John's (my favorite restaurant!) with some of the people I work out with on a regular basis. Of course, they are doing a lot more exercise than I can right now. At this point, all I can do is walk. I miss all of the classes so much! I can't wait to be able to get back to my regular exercise routine.

The yummy cupcakes we had for dessert!

Exercise friends: Julie (and Sylvie), Julia, Lisa, Angie, and Bob

Dr. visit 7/1/01

Well.....we are making some progress! I went to the doctor this morning for our checkup. Everything looks great! I'm measuring 36 weeks which is just about right on....still a few days ahead. When the midwife checked me she said I was dialated 1 cm and 50% thinned. I'll take it! Some progress is better than nothing. Hopefully things will keep moving right along!
Here is a belly picture at 35 weeks. Pretty large!!!
