Getting prepared...

During week 29 we made more preparations to get more ready for Baby Rex.  Saturday we took a Newborn Care class at OHSU; where we learned bathing, swaddling and diapering.  We also just got our car seat, (Thanks Dad!!) so we practiced with that over the weekend.

Love our car seat!

 

 

We also added a few more things to the Nursery:

 

 

Our sleeper from Aunt Mary Ann.  So cozy and it vibrates!

I started working on our first baby book, and can't wait to add more to it.  Baby Rex has another photo shoot (4D ultrasound) while we're in Colorado, and it will be so much fun to see his face!



 

Only a few more days until we'll be winging our way to Colorado.  Getting very excited to see everyone!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the awesome Moms out there, and all the special ones in my life.  I am inspired and influenced by so many Moms, and am grateful for the impact they have on my life.  Especially my own Mom.  I am proud to be her daughter, and excited to be currently going through the same journey that she went through with me.  This week's photo is the throwback edition.  My photo at 28 weeks, and a photo of my Mom pregnant with me at right around the same time in her pregnancy.

I tried to wear my most comparable outfit. :)

It's so fun to see the comparison, and what luck that my Mom was posing the same as I have been for my photos!

Happy Mother's Day Garnet!!

12 weeks to go, and 2 weeks until we'll be in Colorado.  Can't wait!

2 Down, 1 To Go!!

Welcome to the Third Trimester!!

This little guy is getting big, and so am I!  Only 13 weeks to go.  We had gorgeous weather this weekend in Portland; with temps in the 80's and not a rain drop to be found.  We spent most of Saturday working on our Baby registries, and exploring all there is to learn about baby stuff.  It is endless!  We also went to the Nike factory store where we waited in the checkout line for an hour!  But it was worth it.  My goal is to not have my feet to grow during this pregnancy, so I got some new Nike free runs to keep my feet supported and happy.

Here's hoping that my plan works!
