Houston Baby Shower Photos

Michael's aunts and cousin hosted a baby shower for us in the Houston area last weekend. It was great seeing our family and friends that live down there. The shower was fabulous, and everyone had a great time. These are a few of the photos.

Okay, people, you've been asking for a preggo pic, and against my better judgment, I had Michael take one for you. Here I am at 8 months (32 1/2 weeks) pregnant. We had a doctor visit and sonogram today. Luke is weighing in at 4 1/2 pounds right now. (He is in the 46th percentile.) Dr. Wilson says that it's a little bit too early for him to predict how much he'll weigh at birth, but a good guess would be between 7 to 8 1/2 pounds. This could change and depends on a number of factors, of course. Everything looked good with Luke (& me) today. He has moved into a "head down" position, so he is no longer breech. We got to spy on him just doing his normal thing today. He was moving around, sucking on his hand, and we saw him breathing. We also saw and heard his heartbeat (132 beats per minute). We are right on target and getting ready for his arrival! Well, we are ALMOST ready! We still have some work to do on the nursery. (You can see a bit of it behind me in the photo.) I'll post more photos of it once we get it put together a little more. Thanks for keeping up with us. I admit, I'm not very good at updating this blog regularly, but as soon as I have something new to report, you'll hear from me. :)
