19 Days!!!!!!

I don't know how on Earth it's possible that I'm only 19 days away from my due date. I knew once Spring Break was here and gone that time would fly!! I start 1/2 days on MONDAY! Whohoo! I think we pretty much have everything ready, with the exception of a few tiny things. I went to the dr. today and am dilated to a 1--not much happenin' but I guess we'll see how things continue to progress with just a few weeks left. :) (Sidenote- no one told me that having your cervix checked is not much fun!!! I guess I better prepare myself for what's to come!).

Travis and I started our Childbirth classes last Friday and have 2 more left. So far we really like it. The teacher is nice and funny and I think we'll learn a lot as to what to expect (especially Travis I'd say!). We also took "Happiest Baby on the Block," which we also enjoyed. It seems VERY helpful and from the DVD looks to be almost too good to be true. It is all about the 5 S's for calming a crying baby (swaddling, shhh-ing, etc.).

Maternity Pictures

Last Sunday my Uncle Dennis and his wife Lori, who does photography on the side, came to Bloomington to take our maternity pictures. They turned out GREAT!! I am so excited. :) Here are just a few! THANKS again Lori!!!!!!!

Dennis was looking for props around our living room. We laughed at first but this picture with the C turned out to be one of my favorites!!!! We can't wait to meet you "Baby C!!!"

Travis is so dang tall, or is is that I'm so dang short? (or both??) We took a few of the pictures (not shown here) with me standing on a stepstool to make the angles look better. This one is all-natural. ha! A little awkward but that's just the way it is!
