Favorite Shirt

It appears I have a favorite shirt. I just want to assure the general public that I do have other clothes! :) I guess I just wear this one a lot!

This is some of the extended family that came to our shower.

Showers and Sympathy Belts

We had another wonderful baby shower, this one at our church. Poor Wayne was given a homemade sympathy belt (you know, the pregnant belly one a belt for men) and had to wear it the whole afternoon. He kept joking, "I don't need your sympathy." He also had to guess baby food; I think he got them all right, but they tasted awful.

Just a three more weeks!

the Fam

Here's the family. (Jonathan is missing, but we still love him).

I want to take it for a walk!

We had a baby shower at my parents church, June 23. Here I am with one of the presents that excited me the most . . . the BABY STROLLER!!! I told Wayne, I want to take the stroller for a walk!

(for those of you who have looked at strollers lately, you will realize that you cannot simply buy a baby stroller, it is a travel system [oohhh, aaahh]. stroller with compatable car seat/baby carrier. [again, oohhhh, aaahhh]) :)

Side View

For the curious, I must have the most boring pregnancy ever. I never had morning sickness, I don't have any weird cravings . . . altogether, no major complaints whatsoever. Hopefully I'll have a boring delivery as well.

Actually, the worst part is trying to sleep at night. At last count, there are two body pillows, two feather pillows and a comforter stuffed into a pillowcase all devoted to me. Poor Wayne gets the edge of the bed and maybe a corner of a pillow.

Happy Feet

On June 12, we had an unscheduled doctor visit. I was concerned about 'fetal movement,' so in we went. I was hooked up to two monitors, one to check for contractions and one for the babies heartbeat. After 20 minutes, baby was ok, but the doctor wasn't quite happy with the heartbeat. Well, one cup of juice and two minutes later, kick-kick-wiggle-wiggle-kick-kick-punch! and the heartbeat was much stronger. I guess I was just a little low on sugar.
And, obviously we are going to have to monitor kiddo's sugar intake! hahaha
For fun, here is a pic of baby's Happy Feet, taken at week 20.

Baby Belly

Here we are!
While visiting Mom and Dad F., we took some pictures of the 'three' of us. (I think these are the first pictures of the bump, and I'm at 30 weeks!)

Top Story

Wayne, Naomi and baby makes three. Baby is now 30 weeks; t-minus 8 weeks (give or take) and counting! (the picture is at 24 weeks)

For the curious, no, we don't know what we are having, but here are our name selections:
