34 weeks!







Only 6 more weeks left, and I can not wait!!! Life is getting hard, I can see my toes but I can't touch them! And the best is when something is in the bottom on the washer or on the floor, I can't reach it because my belly is so big! haha I am still working 12 hour days, and plan on sticking that out until the end! My co-workers have been great though, giving me the little kids which is alot less weight to move around!
Tom and I got the nursery done, and I think it is the best ever! Also I loaded more pictures of our house, that is finally done, on facebook, so if you get time check it out! This coming weekend we are packing the hospital bag, just so everything is ready at any time!
Sawyer is moving all the time, especially at night! He seems to think that I am human punching bag! We can actually see his fist move all round my stomach, so that has caused a few good laughs! Tom is doing great with helping me! I don't know what I would do without him, I mean getting off the couch or getting out of bed is a chore these days! He is the best!
Sawyer is still breech as far as we know. He is actually "frank breech", which means he is butt first and his feet are up by his ears/head! So the plan for a c-section is still on. But we will have the final call by the doctor after the 36 week ultrasound!
It is dinner time, Tom and I love and miss you all! Next post will be around 36 weeks after the final ultrasound!

32 Weeks!



Tom wanted a close up, so you could see how big Sawyer and I are getting!



Big belly!!!



This is a 3D of his face and he has one finger up!!



This is shot of his nose and lips! The angle is right up his nose! (The big debate does he have Tom's or Leah's nose??)



Another 3D of his face with his hand up by his eyes!!!! He is camera shy!



2D of his face, so cute!!!



This is my favorite picture, he is getting big! Look at those chubby cheeks!!! Love it!

So it looks like baby Sawyer is going to be just as stubborn as his mom and dad! Three weeks ago at the last ultrasound he was headfirst and ready to go, today we went for your 32 weeks ultrasound and he has flipped. Yes he is breech! So hopefully in the next weeks he will flip again, and we can try to do this the right way! If not Tom and I are okay and educated on C-sections. We have finished our labor and delivery classes as well as breastfeeding. We only have one session left, and that is newborn care and first bath!
The ultrasound today showed that Sawyer is in the 51 percentile for his age! So that is good, we are right one track. According to their calculations he is weighing in at 4lbs 10oz! So it looks like we will have a chunk on our hands! But we will not know the real weight until his birthday!
The girls at work just threw me a baby shower this past weekend, and it was great! We got lots of new stuff including toys, blankets, and diaper bags! We have one more to go, Tom’s office is throwing us one this Saturday! We are so excited! So after this weekend we can go and finish our final shopping and get the nursery done! Don’t worry as soon as it is complete we will have pictures up!!!
Life is getting harder, but lucky I have Tom to help me out! I cannot bend over and pick things up anymore. So that has lead to a lot of laughs! Also I am back to eating like I did the first trimester. ALL THE TIME!!! I just cannot stay full for long, because he is rapidly growing again! ☺ We go to the OBGYN on Monday at 8:45 for your check up, and our next and last ultrasound is December 16th at 9:00am! So we will keep you updated!
Love and miss you all, getting soooooooooooooooo excited!

30 Weeks!



Our friends throw a Halloween party every year, and this year it was movie couples! What else do you go as almost 8 months pregnant, Juno and Bleeker!!!


Only 10 more weeks left (well maybe less if he comes early)!!! I had a doctors appointment today, and everything looked great! I do NOT have gestational diabetes, which is awesome news because we were all pretty sure I did! My tummy is measuring exactly 30 weeks and his heart rate today was 156! Our next appointment is in two weeks, and the ultrasound is on the 18Th! We can not wait to see him again! As you can see in the picture below I am getting very big. Only 10 weeks left and I have never been so tired in life!!! But that is part of it, and I am sooooooo craving some sushi and other raw seafood! Not much longer! The nursery is coming along, we are not going to post pics of the whole room until after the last two showers, so then everyone can see the finished project! Tom and I watch my belly move every night, and a few nights ago we saw a whole body part move across my belly, it was pretty funny! We also started our classes, and we are learning alot from them. Even though I am a peds nurse, the whole maternity world is a new one to me! Alright I am going to take a nap, love and miss you all!!!

28 Weeks!



My big big belly in my PJs!!!



This is a 4D of our baby boy! He still thinks it is funny to hide his face!!!



He alomot let us see his whole face!!!



One more try!!!



This is his head, that is getting big as well!!!



2D of the face and arm and hand coming at us!



2D of his face and hand!



I can not wait to meet him!!!!

We have hit 7 months, and I am feeling pretty good! I am starting to lose energy by the end of the day, but I guess that is what happens when you are hauling around a few extra pounds! We had our doctors appointment and ultrasound this week, and everything is looking okay! I go this week for final gestational diabetes testing, so I will keep you all updated on that! The ultrasound was awesome, he is getting so big! He is suppose to be around 2 pounds and he is measuring 3 pounds 3 ounces! So I think we are going to have a big boy on our hands! He might not be in newborn clothes for long!! The ultrasound also showed very very long legs!!! But everything else looked great; the heart, brain, kidneys, and everything else are as healthy as can be!!! Our next ultrasound will be at 32 weeks and our next doctors appointment is in two weeks! Since I am in my 3rd trimester I will be going every two weeks now! We have started to work on the nursery, the changing table/dresser is all put together and Tom hopes to get the crib up and going this week! I have washed all the clothes, blankets, bath stuff and bedding in Dreft, so it is all ready for the big day! We have two more showers we are looking forward too! The girls from work are throwing me one on the Nov. 14Th and then Toms office is throwing us one on Nov. 20Th! I cant wait, we are so thankful for every one's love and support! More to come in the next few weeks, love and miss ya all!!!

26 Weeks!!



This is how many test we took, because we wanted to make sure I was really pregnant! This is to funny!!! HAHA!!!!

We are past the 6 month mark! I can not believe he will be here in less then 3 months! We are getting sooooo excited! I am heading home for my shower in Warsaw this week! It will be great to see my family and friends, because we are not sure when we will be home again (because I am not flying with an infant! :) !! I am feeling pretty good these days! At night time is when it becomes very uncomfortable, because my stomach gets so big at night! I am still carrying him low and he loves to sit on my bladder all day! :) Tom gets to feel him move more and more! I am so excited I get to share that with him now! So things are going well, and we will continue to keep everyone updated! The next post will be at 28 weeks after our appointment and ultrasound!! Hope everyone is doing well, love and miss you all!

24 Weeks!



He is growing and so am I!!!



This is a profile picture of the head!!! He is getting so big!



Check out that foot!! 4.1cm long!



We wanted to get a good look at his face, but he kept his hands over most of it! The one on the right is 3D!!



And we tried one more time, at lease you can see a nose and eye in this one!



Long, long legs and yes its still a boy!!! :)

So we are at the 6 month mark! Only three more to go, this has gone really fast!! It is getting harder to move, bend down, and nothing fits me anymore! I had to give in and go to Motherhood and get some new "mom" clothes!!! I am so excited for my showers, and Tom and I are anxious to start putting together the nursery!!! This last doctors appointment, everything came back perfect, so we are soo happy to hear that! He is growing and developing right on schedule! Our next doctors appointment and ultrasound is October 20Th at 1000am. We are so excited to see him again, if he holds still!!! He is starting to move alot, and I can feel him through out the day! Also he is kicking hard enough sometimes for Tom even to feel him! So that has been exciting!!! We miss and love you all!!!
