EXCITING NEWS!!!

At my last doctor's appointment, which was last Thursday, my doctor told me that she was going to start me in a week. So this Thursday March 12 I go in to get started. They are actually going to have me come in and soften my cervix Thursday night and then Friday in the morning they are going to start me. So hopefully I have a baby on Friday! He will be a Friday the Thirteenth baby which is just fine with me. Ryan's favorite number is 13 so that is kind of fun!
Honestly I am really nervous for this and I am trying to calm down but it is scary to realize that I am going to have to actually go through with labor and delivery and then taking care of a little baby. But I am so excited at the same time because now we get to see the sweet little boy that has been growing inside of me for these past nine months.
If anyone has some great advice for me on how to calm my nerves I would love to hear it!

HE'S FINALLY HOME!!!!







He is finally home! Last night was a great night for our family. My little brother Josh came home from his mission to Ukraine! It was so much fun waiting for him at the airport. He's flight from New York was delayed because of the storms they were having there so he didn't get in until 12:45am. But when we heard that his flight was in we were all so anxious to see him, the passengers that were on his flight that got down the escalator before him kept saying he's here, and he's just so cute! Then when we finally saw him coming down the escalator all of us sister's just started screaming! He ran down to us and just held us all in a great big hug! It is so great to have my brother home again, we missed him so much. He looks the same to me but he has definitely grown. I can't wait to see him again this weekend when we go to Blackfoot for his homecoming. We are taking Friday off so we can leave early and spend as much time as we can with him this weekend. Although I know Ryan and I wish that we didn't have to work today because we went to bed at 3 and got up at 6 this morning, and yes we are going to be feeling the sleep loss soon, but it was so worth it to have the experience that we had last night!!
We love you Josh!! You are the greatest brother in the whole world!!

BABY SHOWER!







Here are just a few pictures from the Baby Shower that my Mom and sisters threw for me on Saturday. I didn't get very many pictures because Ryan was there at the beginning of it with the camera and then he left with my brother-in-law and he took the camera with him. Silly Ryan! So I will have to get more pictures from my dad because he stayed the whole time and got more pictures for us. So sorry these are a little bit of random shots of the baby shower. But as you can see we had great food there! It was a great baby shower I got a lot of cute things from all of my wonderful family. My sweet mother-in-law made the cutest blanket for him. I love it! I will have to take a picture of it and post it! I got some cute little onesies that are so small. I can't wait to see his little body in them! My great mom gave me the cutest outfit to bring him home in from the hospital. I just love baby clothes!
The bottom pictures are of me at, I think, 35 weeks pregnant! That is the jogging stroller that we got and I love it. And that other one is of the bedding that Ryan picked out for his crib. He did a great job too!
We are still doing great, just can't wait to see this little guy! I have a doctor's appointment this Thursday and I think that I will find out when this little baby is coming! Hopefully next week sometime!!!!
By the way my little brother is coming home from his MISSION TODAY!! I will get some pictures of us at the airport! I am so excited March is a great month!!!
