Still Waiting.....

Well, we are still patiently waiting for the arrival of our little boy. Our pace has not slowed at all because we are saving everything we have for this little one. All we do is work, Blake goes to school, and we sleep! So, if you never see us...sorry! Know we love you! We had another doctor's appointment this week, but there is no change in my "progress". So, we just have to sit and wait patiently. I'm not in too big of hurry though and I'm really kind of excited to see how it all plays out. I'm sure to some of you moms that seems crazy because everyone keeps asking me if I'm ready to get him out! I don't want him to come before he is ready, but who knows what will happen! We will find out soon enough!

We are Getting Closer!

We had another doctor's appointment yesterday. Everything is great with the baby and I am 1 cm dilated! The doctor didn't act like that meant he was coming any earlier....but, in my mind it does! I'm getting so nervous and exciting. I think I'm nesting. I want to get everything in order before Braxton gets here. I feel like there are a million things to do. I don't know why I waited until now to get it all done. My fluid was fine and has not gone up. Everything is great! Now we just wait! That is no fun....I keep thinking in my mind that it could just happen any minute. I could just be at Walmart and SPLASH there goes my water! The doctor said it would be like Niagara Falls because of all my extra water, maybe I should keep a towel with me. I'm feeling pretty good. I'm just super tired and feeling like an elephant. But, that is how pregnancy is right! I can't wait to get our little boy here! I'll keep you posted.

Blake's Dream Come True!











Blake and Lex got to sit in the VIP section at last Saturday's Jazz game against the Clippers. Blake's work gave him and two other of Blake's friends tickets to the game. He was so excited he couldn't even sleep the night before and I think Lex was just as thrilled. Blake told me Lex said it was the coolest experience of his whole life! They got free drinks and a real meal to eat. They also got a gift bag with a CD and a bunch of other stuff. Blake yelled at the ref the whole game and the ref even threw a water bottle at thim and told him to cool down! That's my Blake! He loves his basketball and the Jazz. They got to sit in padded seats with small flat screen tvs in front of them. And best of all....the Jazz won the game!








Another Doctor's Appointment!

We had another doctor's appointment on Wednesday. Everything is good and my fluid has not really gone up any. Dr. Smith said he would not let me go past my due date, so now I know for sure this little boy is coming out in less than a month probably! It still just doesn't feel real. We are looking around for a pediatrician. If you know anyone let us know! I'm getting huge and I don't know how much further this tummy can stretch.

Baby Shower!

We had my baby shower on Saturday. Melissa and Trudy Tracy held the shower at Grandma William's house (Blake's grandma) in Sandy. We had really great soup and Grandma's homemade bread. We also had some yummy sweets. My mom got to fly in to spend that special time with me. We had such a great time and talked about babies for hours, four of us are pregnant! This is probably one of the last pictures of Laura pregnant because she had her little boy (Jack) on Monday. I am so greatful for our friends and family. We got so many great things that we really needed. I didn't know how much stuff one little baby needs! Good thing I had some mommy pros there to show me how everything works and tell me what else I will need. He is so loved already and he isn't even here yet. Thank you to everyone for all your support and love! We are so happy to share this time with our great family!
