More Baby Stuff

If you're not tired of hearing about baby stuff, keep reading. We just received our glider this week, after waiting over 3 months for it to arrive. It's really big and comfy and I think it will be nice to have during those middle-of-the-night feedings! Thank you Mimi and Olfa!!! The baby's room is now complete! We've also bought a digital video camera and Micah is trying to figure out how to use it tonight.....he seems a little frustrated with it right now, but I'm sure he'll get the hang of it.

We had a doctor's appointment today and things are still looking good. Dr. Koch thinks the baby could possibly come early because of the baby's size and how low I am carrying. It's nothing to worry about, she just thinks the babe may come earlier rather than later! We took a breast feeding class last night, which will probably be helpful. And we were supposed to start our childbirth class tonight, but it was cancelled due to a sick instructor. So we'll have to reschedule. We also have already pre-registered at the hospital and met with our new Pediatrician, so we are ready!

I'm still feeling really good......my only complaint is that my feet are a little swollen and I can't fit into many of my shoes! I had to buy a pair of cheap shoes today so I'd have something to wear!

Baby Shower in Texas

The Texas baby shower was a big hit! My friends are wonderful and really made everything very special. Melissa gave me a huge surprise by flying into Texas all the way from Washington DC.....I was shocked to see her walk through the door!!

We received a ton of gifts....our car seat, pack-in-play, stroller, and high chair were all purchased and are being shipped to Nevada. Micah's Aunt Nannette made a gorgeous blue and green afghan. My mom made several items to match the baby's room, inlcuding an organizer that hangs on the crib and a cute stuffed hippo. We received lots of other gifts too, as you can see in the picture. Oh, and a bunch of Texas A&M clothes for our future Aggie! If you're wondering what in the world Micah is doing in the last picture.....Tracy's husband Matt gave Micah a "Diaper Duty Tool Belt," equppied with everything he will need to change diapers!!! Does he look ready, or what??

Healthy Baby

I had another doctor's appointment today and everything still looks good! Now the doc wants to see me every 2 weeks and she gave me homework......by my next appointment, I need to have chosen a pediatrician and have pre-registered at the hospital!!! My doctor seems to think this baby is coming soon.....but I guess I only have 2 months left so I better get myself in gear! She did tell me she thinks the baby is positioned head first now (although this could change because the baby is still moving around quite a bit). But this was good news for me! Baby Langdon is also starting to fight for space. It's little foot keeps kicking me in the ribs and making me a bit uncomfortable. The baby and I are going to have a little chat about this tonight! :o)
