On the Lookout!!


Week 37

Well...I guess it could be any day now!! We are sooooo close to the end!!! We have gotten so much done in the past week or so. Nursery done, Turkey Day, and decorated for Christmas!! (I know that if we didn't get it done before the baby comes, it will never happen!!) It looks so great in our house!!!!

Doctor visits have been weekly for the past couple of weeks, and will continue until Baby Anderson is here!! :) According to the doctor, things are going well...progressing as they expect and measuring in where they want at this point! No more estimates on the weight, so we will all have to see how big/small it decides to be!!

Last shower tomorrow :) and then a full week at school!!!
Have a great week!!! I will try to get Kyle to take another video of the nursery ALL DONE so that we can post it up on here!!!

Counting Them Down


Week 36

Well...we are officially full-term now!! Baby is just cooking away in there for the next few weeks and everything looked good at our visit on Wednesday. No more size estimates this time, but it will be interesting to see how big Baby Anderson will be when they grace the world with their presence!! :)

Two days of school this week and then a 5 DAY WEEKEND!!! We cannot wait for that...nice and relaxing and a lot of time to put my feet up (which are looking wonderful by the way!! They are definitely swelling up and we call them my Shrek feet!)

So nice to have a new cup holder!! :)

We did SOOOO much to the nursery this weekend and will post pictures and a video again sometime this week!!! WE LOVE IT!!!
Have a great Thanksgiving week!!!

Big Baby!!


Week 35


WE GOT TO SEE THE BABY THIS WEEK!!! It had been a long time since we have seen baby on an ultrasound (since week 19!!) so it was super exciting when we went and saw baby on Thursday!!!

We got lots of information at that visit:
- Baby is estimated at a 6 1/2 pounds (yes...RIGHT NOW!)
- Baby is head down at this time (good to know...even though baby could still move around a little)
- I was cleared to work until Dec 11th as long as things keep going at the same pace they are now

It was so exciting to see the baby again, we have a few GREAT pictures and may try to scan them in so that I can post them!! It definitely looks like baby has my nose!!! :)



We also had a shower at Desert Rose (Kyle's work) on Wednesday!! Thank you all so much for the great gifts and the delicious meal!!! Here is the cake that they had for us!!! YUMMY!!! :)

I had a great time seeing all of you and hearing all of the stories that you had to share!!

Lots to do this coming week...my goal is to have my bag packed for the hospital this weekend and continue working on baby's room!!! It looks so awesome, and we will post newer pics/videos as we complete more!!
Have a great weekend!!

Done With ChildBirth Class!!


Week 33

Well...this week was our last prepared childbirth class!! I cannot believe how fast these four weeks of class have gone...I feel like we just started and now we are done with all of the material, the tour of the hospital, and the relaxation (AH-HEE...yea, thats how they have you breathing now a days!) It was a great class to take, now we both know a little more about how everything is going to work...although we know everyone is different and no two labors are the same.
I am really going to try to make it through without an epidural, but I am definitely not ruling it out as a possibility!!!

The nursery is done with the painting and we are starting to get it filled with all sorts of fun stuff for the baby!! :) The crib will be here soon...thanks to Mom and Dad...so we will have pictures with that all set up REALLY soon!!! It is such an adorable room for him or her...I know they will love it!

There was also a shower today, Sunday, for my families!! It was a great time and everything was wonderful!!! It was great to have all of our family and friends over for the event, and we got some amazing stuff for our little dribbler!!! We have it all in the room right now and cannot wait to get it all set up!!! Thank you so much to my 'GREAT' aunts for all of their hard work getting everything put together!!

Well...off to start another week of school!! (Only one more full week before we get Veteran's Day off next Wednesday!!) That day off will be so much fun too, because that is our 35/36 week ultrasound and we will get to see the baby again for the first time since week 19!! :) I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Have a great week!! You will hear from us on here soon!!!
***We have pictures to post up here from Halloween!!! Wait till you see what we were!!***
