40 Weeks...And No Baby Yet!

Today is our little girl's due date...and we are still waiting. We thought she might be joining us this past weekend, but the weekend came and went; she is going to keep us excited in anticipation.

We are going to be experiencing an ice storm this evening in Kansas City. It is suppose to start around 6pm this evening and go through tomorrow. Wouldn't that be fun...inching our way to the hospital in labor?

39th Week

We are at week number 39! You know what people say: in some ways, it seems like it has gone very quickly; in other ways, it has seemed very slow. We (and all of our extended family) are ready for her to here now. Keep checking this blog to see when she has arrived and to view those first pictures!

Another Baby Shower (Given By Stewart Title)

We want to thank the wonderful people at Rachel's work, Stewart Title, for throwing a baby shower on Thursday, November 15th. It was absolutely beautiful! They had lunch catered by a healthy restaurant in the area, Green Acres Market, which we, of course, ruined with cake after the gift opening. We got several wonderful gifts, and it was just a wonderful time. Thanks so much to Mary LeAnn and everyone who put it together!

36 Weeks and Counting!

We are at week number 36...and Rachel is thinking, "Will this ever be over?" According to the due date (December 10th), we have four weeks to go, but you all know how these things work. Does anybody want to guess as to when the actual delivery date will be? Just click on the "comments" below and let us know.

Photos Session Pictures!

We had our first session of three with our photographer--Jessica. The second session will be right after our baby is born and the third will be sometime within her first year.

Baby Shower

My friend Sam Kuykendall and my mom threw me a baby shower on Saturday, October 13. We had a great time! Sam is so creative; she made a lot of cute things and desserts. My mom brought an ice cream cake and we all gained about 5 pounds! We did a game of “guess the baby food by sight” and everyone also had to guess when our little girl would arrive (that person gets their gift sent to them after she’s born). We opened presents – we got a lot of great stuff. Thanks everyone! A lot of aahh’s, as any good baby shower should have.

As you can see from the picture, we painted a face on my stomach with makeup. It was quite the sight! But we had a good time. Thanks to everyone who came and made it such a great day!
