We're ready for you and you have a name!

Peanut...we're getting SOOO close! Can you believe it?!?! Daddy and I can't! Tonight we finished our child birth classes, I'm not sure if you're ever really prepare, but I think we're ready. Daddy is pretty good at the relaxation techniques and SUPER good at the massage stuff we learned tonight! The nurse commented on how low I was carrying and saying she didn't think we'd make it until the 24th. And JoJean has been saying that all along too...so, we're making sure we're ready for you around here.

This weekend we purchased your crib mattress and the weekend before that daddy spend Saturday putting together everything we got...the crib, swing, pack and play among other things. And he surprised me by putting up shelves in your closet! Now we just need to organize the closet. We managed to get the changing table organized and you now have your own special space in the bathroom. We bought the most perfect glider to spend time in rocking you and picked up a book case from your cousin Dakota!

Wednesday we have our regular appointment and our last ultrasound. We are so excited to see how big you've gotten and hear predictions about your arrival. We'll make sure to update your fans after the appointment.

Your daddy is leaving me this weekend, for a little road trip. He's headed to North Carolina with Uncle Ryan. Uncle Ryan bought a truck down there and he and daddy are going to go down to pick it up. Daddy's pretty excited about hanging out with him and spending a little time relaxing before you arrive. So, while I'm ready for you to come if you could wait until he comes back on Sunday at least, I'd appreciate it.

I'm hope this weekend everything will be cleaned up and organized around the house so I can take some pictures and post on your blog.

AND, thank you to everyone who voted to name you. Daddy and I have picked a name, a name we think is PERFECT for you and that we've loved all along. We're still keeping it a secret, but I would like to let your fans know that only 4 of the names we posted in the poll were names we were actually considering. And we did not pick Holden or Moses...sorry, we know Holden got the most votes and the Moses was Grandma Carter's favorite...but we settled on your name. We're also going to keep it a secret until you arrive, just on the off chance that you DO NOT look like the most perfect little *&# but more like a perfect little &#^@!%!!!

Say a special prayer for Aunt MacKenzee, she's having surgery on Friday...and Great Grandma Middleton who is flying back to New Mexico on Wednesday...and Grandma and Grandpa Mayhew who are driving back this weekend! They all need angles to watch over them!

We love you baby...and we're ready when you are :)
xoxo

  2. I am excited to find out what you decided for a name! And were you going to post any pics of the nursery? I'm sure your "fans" (especially those across the state) would love to see it! :)
