8 more weeks to go.

I am amazed at how quickly time has flown by.  However, as soon as I say that, time will slow down.  Especially now that I'm getting bigger and more uncomfortable by the minute.

But, today, Baby un-named Shepherd is 32 weeks old, is the size of a jicama, weighs about 3.75 pounds and is about 16.75 inches long.  However, I think I'm safe to say that he probably weighs more than 3.75 pounds bc he weighed 3.5 at 29 weeks :)  He, along with myself, are going to be huge :)















We've had a pretty eventful past 2 weeks.  2 weekends ago, Rebecca, Angela and Mrs. Ann threw us a GREAT baby shower!  They did SUCH a wonderful job and are so darn creative!  We had a great turnout and we are so lucky to have such wonderful people in our lives.

Here are some pictures from the cute whale-themed event:














































































































































































































































































We have 2 more showers on the schedule - one thrown by my co-workers and one thrown by the wonderful ladies in our Sunday School class.  I'd say that Baby S. will not need anything after those showers for quite a while :)

Last week, David worked in Washington, D.C.  We found out mid-week that he was going to be held over until the next week.  I immediately started to look for a flight to D.C. for a short trip to visit him.  He has only been home 6 days this entire month so I of course wanted to see him.  And no one has to pull my leg to take a vacation anywhere :)

So on Thursday, I booked a flight that left out of Nashville the very next day.  We had a nice, whirlwind of a weekend.  It gave me an opportunity to play with my new Canon Rebel camera too.  I have yet to get the pictures onto my computer but as soon as I do (and if they are post-worthy), I will put them up on the blog.

Meet the Little Man

Today we had the big 4D ultrasound.
I've always thought they kind of looked freaky but apparently, it's everyone else's baby that looks freaky in 4D.  Because my child does not look weird at all.  And I'm totally not biased or anything :)
He's the sweetest little thing.  I can already tell he has David's nose.  And for one brief second during the ultrasound, I thought he looked like me. 

See for yourself...

(Side Note:  Also, as of today, he is 29 weeks, 1 day old.  However, he is measuring at 29 weeks, 6 days.  I wouldn't argue too much if he decided to make his debut on January 12th by any means :)
