The countdown has begun! I am in my 3rd trimester, about 8-9 weeks from delivery. Dr. Tackitt moved my due date up 1-2 weeks just based on the fact that he does not see me going longer than that. Everything has been going good; we are all healthy and just working at putting on weight! We had a little scare with Steven (Baby B) as he went through a period without gaining much weight. I focused on resting and eating well and at our last visit he put on some major OZ’s! We are now seeing a doctor every week, the specialist one week and my OB the next week so we are under constant monitoring.
We were blessed enough to have 4 fantastic showers! My amazing SIL Jenni hosted the first one and it was absolutely beautiful. She had some great helpers and everything came out looking amazing. We got so many great gifts and are so appreciative. I had 2 work showers, one at my office and one at my mom’s office. Everyone is genuinely happy for us and really went out of their way to make the showers special. Our last shower was at Lake Allatoona, hosted by two dear friends, Chrissy and Amanda W. It was a co-ed shower and was very relaxing. Needless to say, we have more than enough to get us through the first year!
Other than that, we have been steadily preparing at home. The nursery is almost complete and I cannot wait to post some pictures for you all to see. We have had gifts from several family members that have helped bring the room all together. I can’t walk by the room anymore without opening the door and peeking in to envision my two sweet boys in there!
