First Baby Shower Gift...

We received our first baby shower gift! It was sent to us from Hai & Hortensia Wang (Matt's old boss/friend and his wife). They sent us the Chicco Stroller and Baby Bjorn that we registered for. We love them both! Matt was especially excited to get the Bjorn. I have been carrying the baby around for the last 8 months, so he is excited to carry him around!

8 months preggo :)

Baby Kelley's Nursery

We are in the process of getting baby Kelley's nursery together. We put a new fresh coat of paint on the walls and we also painted one wall with a brown stripe. My dad is coming over this weekend to help us hang the wainscoting and chair rail on one wall. After that is done we just need to wait for the furniture and the bedding to arrive and the room will be complete and ready for baby! The dresser/changer is on backorder until February 7th and the crib is on backorder until February 27th. So the room should be all done by the end of February!! I can't wait :)

31 week update!

Today I went to the doctor for my 31 week appointment. They said that everything is going great! The most exciting news is that I have only gained 1 pound in the last two weeks! I am so thankful for that! I got the results of my glucose test and I passed with flying colors! My doctor said that my sugars look great and my blood work is really good. She said that around this time women start to get a little anemic, but she said I don't have any problems at all. She said that what ever I am doing, keep doing, because everything is going so great! She did tell me that at my next appointment they are going to do an ultrasound to see if my placenta had fixed itself. Which is exciting because we will get to see the baby one more time before he is born! Other than that everything seems to be going great!

29 week update!

Today I went to my 29 week doctors appointment. I start going to the doctor every other week for now till March! So I will have more baby updates. Before this appointment I had to go take the Glucose Test to test for Gestational Diabetes. Every pregnant women has this test done around this time of the pregnancy, so it is routine. They didn't have my results for the test yet, but they said they would call me when they got them.
I got to listen to the baby's heart beat. He was super active when I was at the doctors, so he was kicking at the doppler the whole time. My doctor thought it was funny.
Besides that, everything seems good. My heart rate was up a little bit, but they didn't seem too worried about it. I go back for my next appointment on Wednesday the 21st.

Great Expectations Class

So Matt and I went to our first "Great Expectations" class last night. It was from 7:00-9:00 at Mercy Folsom Hospital. There are eight couples total in our class and out of the eight, they were all having boys except one couple! So crazy, so many boys! All the couples there are due in March. Half are due at the very beginning and half are due at the end, but we are all having March baby's. And we are all delivering at Mercy Folsom.
The class was very informative and we learned a lot! Last night, Ruby (our director) talked about anatomy, pregnancy warning signs, pregnancy discomforts, relaxation and breathing and exercise.
Next week we have to bring pillows and a blanket to the class, so I can't wait to see what we are learning then!

Parenting/Birthing Classes

Tonight Matt and I start our Parenting/Birthing Classes at Mercy Folsom Hospital! The class is called Great Expectations and we are signed up to go from 7:00-9:00 p.m. every Tuesday night for the next six weeks.
We are both kind of excited to go and learn new things about parenting and what is going to go on during labor and delivery. Should be interesting!

Matt's shoulder surgery...

Matt had a successful shoulder surgery on Christmas Eve. There was more work that needed to be done once they got in to his shoulder with the camera. But the were able to repair everything and he will be as good as new before we know it.

This is Matt just after I brought him home from the surgery center...
