35 weeks

We are getting close to Baby Dillon's due date! It's hard to wait. At our last doctor appointment we had another ultrasound because she wanted to see for herself that the baby is a boy. She agreed with the other doctor, that it is 100% boy! We, of course, have pictures to prove it! The "new" nursery is coming along and hopefully everything will be finished in time.

Baby boy Dillon--growing strong!

Today we had another ultrasound to further verify that Baby Dillon is male. HE SURE IS! Last week his estimated weight was 4 lbs. The doctor is predicting that he'll weigh about 6 lbs, 10 oz. at birth. His heart rate is 143 BPM and his organs all look good. We only have 5 weeks to go and we can't wait to meet him!

It's a boy?!

Surprise, surprise!! We are having a boy. What a shock we had at our ultrasound yesterday. Here is the "proof" although I don't think we'll truly be convinced until the little baby is born. The top is a picture of his boy parts. SURPRISE! The bottom picture is a close up of baby's face. He is sticking out his tongue and he kept blinking at us. Maybe he was happy that his true identity was finally revealed.

6 weeks to go!

Nursery pictures--it's almost ready

The baby's furniture finally arrived! We are just putting the finishing touches on the nursery. Mark is painting the shelves and I am busy folding teeny baby clothes and putting them in the dresser. Thank you again to Mark's parents for painting the nursery, and my mom for sewing the curtains and bed skirt and buying our glider (which is so comfortable, by the way!) We are anxiously awaiting her arrival..... in about 7 weeks!

Family shower in Ohio

Mark's parents had our family over for a shower and family get together. It was fun to see everyone! Baby Dillon continues to be spoiled...

32 weeks!

Here we are at 32 weeks. Baby Dillon is approximately 3.5 lbs. and 17 inches long. She is almost full grown!

the nursery--it's a process

We're gradually assembling the nursery. Mark put together the book cases and night stand and hung the curtains made by Grandma Marcie. Mark's parents came for a visit to help us out by painting the baby's room. It's starting to look great!
