35 1/2 weeks...and getting ready for baby

I'm getting very anxious for baby. We had another ultra sound on Friday with the high risk doctor, Dr. Drake. She was our doctor with Drake and feel like we're in great hands.
I haven't really taken any tummy shots. I think with Drake I had already taken a handful.  I'm getting to the point where I try not to glance too close in the mirror. =)


The nursery so far...
We're going to add her name on the wall. We're waiting because Brock has already tried to change my mind multiple times.
 I was excited to learn that they didn't think I would need a c-section. The baby is looking great and weighing in at about 6 pounds. My protein level is still really high, but it's something they continue to monitor. I was really pushing for a crystal ball prediction of when she thought I would go. But...no such luck. My goal is to get through the 8 more days of school and wrap up my long term sub plans for the Fall. It will be really nice to be at home until the end of September.

MAY FUN!

 We've had a really relaxing May. Trying to get the last minute things done before the baby comes. The weather has been so nice and Drake loves hanging out with his buddies around the neighborhood.

Drake got to pick where to go for Mother's Day. His choice....."The Barrel." (Cracker Barrel) Drake wonders when will it be his day?

Mad Skills


Drake enjoyed trying many different activities this spring.

Fun traveling to Arizona and Minnesota

We had a fun time visiting G+G Traetow in Phoniex during February. The weather was beautiful .

Here we're just taking a short hike with Nana and Papa.



Panning for Gold

Drake and I went up to Lake Vermilion to visit my parent's new cabin over spring break. Drake had a great time throwing rocks into the lake. It was a quick stop. Too cold....We then spent a couple days at the "Malk of America"(according to Drake).
