It's Getting Closer....

So as some of you know we got some good news this week. First, we found out that Jeremy doesn't have to leave until the 1st week of December (instead of leaving NEXT week)!! This was such a relief for Jer and I because we knew there was a chance he wouldn't be here for the birth of Gavin, but now we know that wont be a problem :) The second thing we found out was the date that I will be induced...NOVEMBER 4th!! If I don't go into labor before then we go to the hospital the morning of the 4th and hopefully Gavin will be here shortly after that.

The doctor said I was 1.5cm dilated yesterday and also said that if everything with the induction goes ok I should have no problem having the baby normally instead of a c-section.

Lets cross our fingers and hope that everything goes great. Gavin will be here in a few dayssss :)

Me @ 37 weeks

We wont be able to park here anymore! Haha

BABY Update

So we had a doctor's appointment this past Friday...

Gavin & I are doing good :) I still have high blood pressure, but nothing that is affecting the baby...at least as of now it's not affecting anything. The doctor did say that since I've had this high blood pressure for the past month that they wouldn't let me go to my due date, so the latest I would have Gavin would be November 4th.

Thats only a week and a half away!!!!

Jer and I are hoping that he will be able to be here for the birth since the dates of him deploying and me delivering are so close. We should find out something this week...PRAY HE'LL BE HERE TO MEET GAVIN!!

If we find out any more information we will let everyone know.

Gavin,

We are all awaiting your arrival and we couldn't be more excited to meet you! Mommy and Daddy talk to you everyday and ask when you're going to come, but you just come when you are ready. Your family can't wait to finally see your handsome face, and it looks like we only have about a week and a half left of waiting.

We all love you so much...Happy Early Birthday!!

Love,

Your Mommy :)

Deeply In Love

So just to let everyone know, I have the most wonderful husband in the world :) One night last week when I was at work he spent all night making this video for me. It was the sweetest thing...and every time I watch it it makes me cry. I cant help it!!

We're about a month away from my due date, and we couldnt be more ready for Gavin to be here!!! Jeremy and I are getting very anxious and we are praying that Gavin will be here before he gets deployed. We have an appointment this Thursday, so hopefully we will get more information on when we might be able to have him. We'll let everyone know if we find out anything :)

ENJOY!

Maternity Pictures

When Jeremy and I went down to Texas in August we got our maternity pictures taken. I was only about 6 months along, but it was our only chance to get them taken with Jeremy being in them so we went ahead and did them a little early. Joyelle has taken pictures for Jeremy's family for a while now, so I knew I wanted her to do our maternity photos. They came out amazing and I couldnt be happier! Now we're waiting for Gavin to be here so that she can take newborn pictures of him :) Thanks again Joyelle!

Our Trip to Texas

Ok, so I've been slacking on updating our blog, so I'll try to be more on top of it! I've been getting back into the tired stage of pregnancy, but only about 2 months to go!! Jeremy and I can't believe it's almost time for us to meet our Gavin. He's getting so big...SO AM I...but that only means it's getting closer to his birthday :)

Here's a little update on what we've been up to the last month or two...

As most of you know we were able to visit home in Texas at the beginning of August. While we were there Jeremy's parents and my grandma threw us 2 baby showers. We figured it would be a little easier to have 2 showers since we had so many family and friends that were able to come. We got so many wonderful gifts from everyone and we're so thankful that everyone was able to make it out! I was really bad about taking pictures the whole time we were down and I relied on everyone else taking pictures, so I only have a few to post.
