Sleep...

It's overrated! I have actually been sleeping pretty good since the travel stopped last week. We get to bed pretty early, and I think I have been recovering from 10 wks of jet lag. But tonight, not so much. We went to bed pretty early, but aches and pains woke me up. All this extra weight can make even my favorite, most comfortable Tempurpedic bed feel like I am sleeping on the ground. Multiple restroom visits to pee a teaspoonful, and with Baby G moving around... I couldn't sleep anymore tonight. I guess it is all in good time - a little preparation for the sleepless nights in my very near future once he arrives. I still can't wait! :)

Baby Bump - 30 wks

Here is the most recent baby bump photo. At the doctor this week when she was listening to the heart beat, Baby G decided to kick every place she put the sonogram :) Can't wait to meet this little guy!

Home

Home is one of those things I think can easily be taken for granted. This is my first week working from Denver in 10 weeks, and I am SO grateful to be home! I missed my evenings with Scott - as uneventful as they may seem, they are special to us. We have enjoyed creating yummy meals (which I am sure he missed) and time together talking, reading, and preparing for our son to arrive. You know what else I missed? Seeing the mountains! Home - it is good to be back!

Here is a funny pic of our first baby, Seychelle, busted in the middle of the night by Scott and I on our couch! She is using the pillows... too cute, all we could do was laugh and take pictures and let her be :)

Shower in St. Louis

Here are some photos from the shower I had a couple weekends ago in St. Louis. Mary Ellen hosted - thank you! It was great to see everyone! I was 28 weeks along - so these will have to serve as the 28 wk belly bump shots... sorry! Scott and I will try to start posting a belly bump photo every two weeks - so the 30 week photo will be this week!

I was hoping to get back home to Omaha for a shower with my family there, but my doc recently said no more travel after this week :0( Love you guys back in Omaha!!! Glad I was able to see you early in the pregnancy.

Mom - look at the second photo... it is of me holding a "lovey" puppy dog... from Nancy Shea. It looks very similar to the one I had when I was a little one :0) only difference is mine was yellow. Too cute!

Wow - time is flying!!!

Hi all! I am sorry I have not written in a while - Scott and I have been busy, busy trying to get our home ready for Baby G. Between doing that, playing catch up on the weekends, and traveling 4-5 days during the week, I have not had much time to write or update the blog! Lots has happened though...

Scott and I cleared out the guest room (sorry to the guests we have had stay with us in the past) for Baby G. We had a garage sale - a successful one at that! We got rid of our old kitchen table and chairs and our circuit training/home gym that was in our downstairs family room, along with tons of other junk! WOW it feels like we have so much more space now! Plenty of room for all that baby gear we are getting!

Last weekend we painted the baby's room - it is the perfect shade of.... OH, I am sorry, you will have to wait! The big reveal will be coming soon! Ahh... the nesting continues :0) I will post pics of the nursery soon. Some of you know the theme already - PLANES!!! It only made sense, since I have been on a plane almost my entire pregnancy and this little guy moves around so much when we are flying. Maybe he will grow up to be a pilot :0)

Love you all! More pics and blogging to follow...
