Ok, so it has been a while since I have posted anything. I thought I would be posting at least a couple times a week, and I was doing pretty good there for a while! I feel it hanging over my head to post though, even though there really has not been alot going on. The nursery is still not finished, so I don't really want to post any pictures yet until it is done! It will come down to the wire for sure! I have had a pretty rough past 4 weeks, which is why I have not gotten much done. I have been REALLY really sore everyday, pretty much to the point where getting up from the bed, couch, a chair, etc. hurts. It hurts many times just to walk around my house. There is so much pressure that I can't even explain and it feels like every muscle down there has been pulled and bruised. I am not trying to throw myself a pitty party, because I know it's all worth it, but that is why I have been laying around a ton over the past month. I can't stay on my feet long at all :-( BUT on to some news! I will be 37 weeks on Tuesday - I can't believe it! I have to catch you up on something though. A couple days after my shower I went for my 33 week appointment and sonogram. At that point, the sonogram measured the baby weighing 5 lbs 11 oz! Now, I know sonogramgs can be off, but still! So, I got another sonogram last week at 36 weeks and the baby weighed 7 lbs, 11 oz! WOW!! My doctor and nurse thought it was too funny ( I did too)! I will have one more scan next week at 38 weeks and if she is measuring 9+ lbs, they are going to go ahead and induce me right at 39 weeks. And they are pretty sure she will be at least 9 lbs! I have a big baby girl on my hands! My sister and I were both big babies so I am not surprised! Again, I know sonograms can be WAY off. It's happened to a couple of my friends. I guess we will just have to see when she gets here! This is big news! Ella Kate could be here in 2 weeks!!! Here is a sonogram picture from my 33 week appointment, when she was almost 6 lbs:
A picture of her sweet face! She is looking right at us. Look at those huge puffy cheeks and that sweet hand up by her face! She also has hair!!
I do want to share with you my FAVORITE piece in her nursery. This was an old buffet table that Drew's parents gave us. We wanted to make it into a changing table. A sweet girl that does all of my stepdads faux finishing in his houses he builds refinished it for us and it is beautiful!
Before......
After!!! (Disregard the frames on top - we just set them there to get them off the floor. This will be her changing table).
I can't wait for the nursery to be finished! It is going to be so pretty, of course I am biased :-) That's really all there is to catch everyone up on. I am so thankful football season is here because it helps time pass faster! Although, I may not be able to watch any more Ole Miss games until she gets here because it's no good for my blood pressure. I am really nervous about this year for us...our defense is sad. But I love Masoli! Here's a picture of Drew and me from last Saturday before the worst loss in school history:
We were SO sure we would win this game BIG. Hmmm.... And yes, that is a shark necklace around my neck. I thought we would still be The Landshark Defense. It's been put away for the rest of this season.
I will keep you posted on whether I will be induced for sure or not, but it's looking very likely! I am getting really anxious, scared, worried, etc. so any prayers would be greatly appreciated! We are looking forward to this sweet little blessing in our lives. Love y'all!
