Maternity Pics

So...I'm not a fan of the bare belly maternity pics. I really didn't want to document in pictures what my belly looks like right now, but here are some pics Chad Braithwaite took for us. I love them. The best part is...there are more--better ones even--that we are putting in a book for our little guy. This book will document our little man's first year of life. Enjoy!!












My favorite!!

5 weeks to go...

Here we are, counting down. We only have 5 weeks left until little Paxton gets here (that's his name unless something changes between now and looking at him at birth). It hasn't been too bad of a pregnancy. Hopefully he's as good outside as he's been on the inside. It's just the heat that has gotten to me. Braxton Hicks contractions have been going since 20 weeks but now are more consistent and the "real" contractions have now just started--they only happen at night and they are waking me up. Yikes--we are close. I'll get some updated pics on the nursery posted real soon. My nesting stage has kicked in big time the past couple days. Speaking of the nursery...

Chewy jumped into the crib, by himself. Yes, he really did. There was nothing stacked on the sides for him to climb up and there are no scratches on the crib. So, there's no sign that he was struggling to get in. He really wanted that giggling bear that you can see in the pic. Things could get interesting!!

I just wanted to add some cute pics of my girls. They really are a talented group and I look forward to a successful year. Good Luck ladies!!

First Day of School!

8 weeks to go...

We are at countdown. Officially, we only have 55 days to go...Time has really flown by. I can't believe that this little guy will be with us in no time. I've had 2 baby showers and 4 to go. I'm so grateful for the help/gifts that my friends and family have given and are giving to us. We should be well prepared when he comes--and he will be pretty spoiled. I'm HOT as can be and don't sleep very well at night, but I guess I'll be prepared for the upcoming sleepless nights. Chewy is loving all the gifts I put in the nursery--he thinks they are all for him--his favorite are the blankets. It will be interesting to see how this baby affects and changes the lives of all 3 of us!!
