Labor Day weekend...


Originally posted September 7, 2009

Well, we are both very happy to have a 3 day weekend. Hopefully it will not become a real "labor day" tomorrow!

Thank goodness for college football starting. It has helped me with my "get more rest" order from the doctor. We watched some amazing games this weekend and we have 2 left to watch tomorrow. Our Ags played well on Saturday and came away with a win; the best way to start the season! A&M has a bye week this next weekend, but we are ready to BTHO Utah State in two weeks!

On Friday, Taryne's bedding arrived. After getting it all washed, I got the bed all set up. It looks amazing!!



Here is a shot with the monogram.....notice the circles on the skirt match the circle on the monogram....I have a method to my madness!!



We were fortunate enough to get a great side table for the glider. We got it from some of our good friends that were moving away. It originally had a clock under the glass, but I removed the clock "parts" and Kyle painted the table. I covered the clock face with a beautiful scrapbook paper and we now have a side table that goes with the room.



So....most of you know that I am not the "weekly belly shot" type of person. Instead, I wanted to have some pictures of my pregnant belly once I "sprouted" that belly. Today we took some photos of me in Taryne's room. Since I am going to the doctor twice a week now to monitor my blood pressure, I decided that I could not wait any longer to take these since they could tell me at any time now that I need to go to the hospital and have the baby.

So, without further ado....







...and...here is one of Kyle and myself....



I believe we are now ready for Taryne to arrive. I spend most of Sunday getting the last of the blankets and all her clothes washed. It is amazing how many loads of laundry I have done getting everything for baby washed over the past week or so.

This weekend is really the first time I have felt "pregnant". I guess that is pretty good considering I only have a little over 2 weeks before she is due to arrive. I am definitely to the point where I am ready for her to be here...I can only eat about 5 bites of food before I feel so full I want to be sick. I have managed to get myself on a regular schedule each night for potty breaks. I guess this is God's way of preparing me to be up every 2 hours with a new baby!! Luckily, I have found a way to over come my stomach sleeping habit....I have some how trained my brain to think I am sort of sleeping on my stomach by using a body pillow and turning very far over on either side.

Kyle and I are both amazed at how much my belly seems to "grow" day to day now! It is truly amazing that there is a person inside of me and we will meet her soon enough!!....Until next time...Gig'em!
