WOW...interesting growth!

Here are the pictures of my growing tummy. I started taking these profile pics at 20 weeks. Right after we found out we were having a BOY!

What a FUN weekend!!

First things first...we should now have this baby anywhere between now and October 7th. If he decides that he's just too comfy in me, then they will induce me on October 7th. I'm hoping and crossing my fingers that he comes out sooner (like tonight). All is well. He is healthy and so am I. He's just not in any rush...too bad his momma is. My best friend of 24 years had her baby boy, Gary, yesterday. Congratulations Michelle and Vasili. It made us so excited to meet our little guy. I can't wait to have the 2 little dudes meet and become BFF's like their moms. Here is hopefully my last tummy picture...I'm getting HUGE.

Happy 2nd Anniversary to the love of my life. We kept things pretty low-key this year. We did some spa treatments and then went to dinner at Old Spaghetti Factory. With baby on the way, we didn't want to leave town or stay overnight anywhere...next year we'll do something bigger. We are just happy that September 21st is still OUR day and that we won't have to worry about competing with our little boy's birthday each year.

I love you, Trent!! I'm so grateful for you and the love that we share. I'm so excited for this journey with you by my side!!

We went to the Utah State Fair over the weekend. Trent has never been. I made him go down the Big Yellow Slide, eat a funnel cake, and people watch. It will be a fun tradition each year! We are excited to take our little guy next year to see all the animals--we'll add the circus to that next year also!!

It's on like Donkey Kong

We are winding down with only 18 days left. I am so excited to meet this little guy. Although pregnancy has been fun, I'm ready to be done. And yet, people continue to remind me to enjoy it while I can. I guess at some point I'll understand what they are talking about. The nursery is ready, the clothing is washed, Chewy is prepped...we just need the baby. We are still throwing around name ideas...so, it won't be decided until he is born. You will just have to wait and see. Please keep us in your prayers. We are hoping for a very healthy boy both mentally and physically. Also, that there will not be any complications for me or him. I've heard so many horror stories lately and really need some reassurance so that I'm not nervous--or am I just excited. Probably a mix. Anyway...hopefully the next blog will include a pic of our new baby boy Staggs. Thanks to all who have been so helpful and gracious with gifts and advice!!
