17 days to go.

Working on his baby book!

The final countdown

Only 41 days left. Time is passing quickly, and while we've got everything Blake could ask for, we still don't feel prepared!

Only a few things left to do before D-Day. New mirrors need to go up (in place of the ones I broke!). The car seat needs to be installed. I'm still without a diaper bag, I'm just to picky. And the hospital bag is only partially packed. 

With Christmas coming it has been hard to focus on everything all at once, so after next weekend, it is crunch time.

I'm looking forward to having the Grandma's here and my friend Savannah (from Virginia) coming out to lend a hand and visit after Blake is born. I think I'd be panicking more if it weren't for that. 

Merry Christmas Everyone! Hopefully our next update will be the arrival of little Blake Allen. 

It is official!

Derek Proposed! Back on November 12th he popped the question! We have plans to get married in November 2011 in Jamaica or somewhere in that area.

Ignore my chubby preggo fingers!

Blake's room Progress

His homemade name hangy things. By homemade, I mean I painted them and added the ribbon...I didn't actually cut out the letters :)

Hand Painted Shelves and abstract painting

The things in the corner are lanterns

His awesome night light that broke :( Ordering a new one.

Dirty Mirrors....the lion fell while I was cleaning them, and broke....taking the night light down with it. A new one is on the way.

His name painting I did, and coat rack (the coat rack and elephants were all hand painted, and assembled!)

Doctor Update

We went in today for a normal check up, Blake's heart rate was 140, perfect! Everything is measuring exactly as it should. We go back in four weeks for the next check up. 24 weeks on Saturday! Only 16 weeks left.

Blake's Bed is complete!

Just needs a changing table cover!

Thanks Grandma Misty and Grandpa Robert for his new comfy organic mattress!

Attack of the airport animals

Blake's new stuffed Giraffe and Elephant. Saw them at the airport and couldn't leave them there.
