WARNING: Long blog to follow

First and foremost I must apologize for not keeping up on my blog. A lot has happened and I hope to update you all in this blog. First let me give you the excuse why I have been so bad about updating; I have to work 6 days a week (to keep my insurance I must work a certain # of hours a week), I have a doc apt every week, small group, church, date night, nesting (cleaning), aunt and uncle in town, Thanksgiving, Colorado trip, my husband falling off a roof, classes (breast feeding, Lamaze, baby basics), need I say any more?
Please forgive me?

Okay, where to start? My last post was nearly 12 weeks ago and a lot has happened since then.

I missed some weeks without pictures but here is a couple of pics from my 32 week.





Not bad uh! Getting bigger and bigger. This week (wk 32) we visited my obgyn, and if you have been keeping up with my blog I am sure you have received the notion that I am not a big fan of him. Well, this week I decided that no matter what, I was going in with a list of questions (because usually I would go in with a list but felt like he was to busy to answer any of them, and I would always feel hurried) and I would read them to him. So, before going, Jamie and I came up with a LONG list of questions. And sure enough when they called my name to go back into the room, Dr. obgyn was an hour and half late. So, we stuck to the plan and he took 5 minutes to answer each question! He did not hurry us at all. Do to that apt we feel much better about him and would probably recommend him to our friends. I think I had the expectation that I didn't have to ask questions, and that he would just tell me what to expect. But, now I know: just ask.

I guess I forgot to mentioned that between 24 and 32 weeks my wonderful husband fell off a roof and landed on his head. He's okay now but has been out of work for 12 weeks on Workman's comp. Lucky me, I have had him around to help me and go to ALL my doctor apts with me :) (P.S. He is feeling GREAT and looks GREAT too )




Back to baby: My wonderful family through me a baby shower in Colorado, and one in Florida! We have sooooooooo much stuff for baby now! We were blessed with more than we could have ever hoped for. (I don't have any pictures unfortunately) but here is the nursery full of baby stuff.





My Master piece: her closet (did i mention I got a but load of clothes)



I am having trouble uploading pictures right now, so I am going to upload all my pictures in the next blog. Um..... There hasn't been much else going on with us other than that. Just staying busy. Waiting for baby to arrive. (Still no name)

Jamie got laid off from work on Thursday. BUMMER! This Christmas we will not be able to buy any Christmas presents, which will be the 1st Christmas ever that I have done that. Usually my family (including me) goes overboard on presents, but this will test the "true meaning of Christmas". Kinda like to movie "The Grinch".

I will keep you updated on our job status. It couldn't have happened at a worst time, but we are trusting in the God that provides! He has a plan and we are confident in it.

Until next time, and unless baby comes soon, I promise it wont be as long....
