Gobble Gobble Weekend

We spent Turkey Day with our friends Enid and Cory in Reno. Enid is also pregnant and due 5 days before Kelly.....now the race is on to see who has their baby first! Her parents did most of the cooking and were really sweet to have us over. Today we spent the day in Reno with other friends, Eric and Hillary. We probably saw the last movie of our non-parenting lives, the new James Bond 007. Then we went to a Chocolate Bar to satisfy Kelly's recent sweet tooth. It's been a pretty good and relaxing 4 day weekend.

We're counting down......

Only 13 days until the due date! It's getting really close, but I think we're going to have to keep waiting. We saw the doctor today and there is no progress or sign that the baby will come early. The doc thinks this will be a December baby after all. And she said to prepare myself in case the baby decides to have a late arrival! But I'm feeling really good and don't really have any complaints. We're both getting anxious to meet this little baby and find out if it's a boy or a girl. Place your bets now!

I do think my belly is growing bigger and bigger by the minute! The doctor estimates that baby is now around 7 pounds, growing fast, and very healthy. The babe also likes to hang out on the right side of my belly......never the left side! My belly is definitely lop-sided!

All our bags are packed, we're ready to go......

We have been really busy this past week getting prepared for baby's arrival! I had another shower at my office last week, planned by my good friend Tasha. They all pitched in and gave Baby Langdon a red Radio Flyer tricycle that came with red cowboy boots and a red cowboy hat! It is SO adorable! Micah and I both had red boots when we were kids, so this gift was extra special! We also received a bunch of other gifts.....clothes, blankets, toys, cups, plates, spoons and more! It's truly amazing how generous everyone has been!


Micah and I have our hospital bags packed and the baby's room completely ready to go now. We did our last minute shopping this weekend and feel like we're as physically prepared as we're going to get! We took an infant care class on Saturday where Micah practiced putting on diapers and swaddling the baby like a burrito. We also received a tour of the hospital and the maternity ward. The rooms are spacious and super nice! They are labor, delivery and recovery rooms, which means we'll stay in the same room the entire stay (unless we have to have a C-section for some reason). The rooms are nicer than many hotel rooms we've stayed in and come equipped with a TV, DVD player, microwave, small fridge, and a couch/bed for the hubbies to sleep. The newborn babies also stay in the room with the parents. We have been very impressed with the hospital!

Oh, and not only does baby have it's first pair of boots, he/she also has it's first pair of converse tennis shoes!!! We just couldn't resist!

Belly Pics

Soon you won't have to see pictures of Kelly's belly anymore, but until the baby arrives......

Nevada Baby Shower

On Saturday my good friend Kristin threw a baby shower for me in Reno. It reminded me what wonderful friends I've made here in Nevada. There was a great turn out and I was showered with tons of lovely gifts! I received a custom-made diaper bag, hand knitted booties/scarf/beenie, baby bouncer, baby bath tub, monitors, clothes, and lots of toys. My mom also flew in town for the occasion.....I think she wanted to see me while I was 8 months pregnant! That's right, only one month left!! Should Micah and I start panicking now???

80's Punk for Halloween

We went to a Halloween Party last night and the theme was 80's Punk. So here we are......have you ever seen a pregnant punker? And didn't Micah find the greatest wig????
