You know that feeling...that feeling that you are about to receive some life changing news? You wait for that day when you hear exactly what you want to hear and you walk out the door with that perfect song, mine at the moment is We Are Young buy Fun, playing in your head and you are kind of strutting your stuff because nobody can knock you off your game. Yeah, I didn't get that yesterday! Lol! I was hoping to go to my appointment yesterday hearing two things: You are dilated to a 3 or a 4 and have almost thinned out completely or you are staying here because you are having this baby TODAY! I didn't hear either of those. So we settled for a day to induce in case this little bundle wants to wait it out. JUNE 25th is our big day! We are so anxious and excited! We typically set a date and then have our babies two days before. I get scared thinking about inducing, I have heard some awful stories. However, we just go with the flow. SO here I am at 39 weeks:
Weight gain for this pregnancy has been perfect! I can't complain except now I am starting to feel the swelling coming on. I have exactly 2 weeks after my 6 weke grace period to get in shape for our Hardin-Simmons Basketball Alumni game. Eek! I am not sure if I will be able to do it but it is what I miss most when pregnant {working out}.
J'Lee is ready for this baby to get here. I think she is more excited that I won't have to work and she gets to hang out with me. She asks everyday when I get to go on vacation. Sweet girl. She drew a picture of the family:
Notice anything? Yep, there are only 4 people. She said she couldn't fit Jax in there so she left him out. Poor bubby. Lol! Do you see what's in the background...yep her bags are packed too!
She was trying to figure out a name for her brother and came up with this...
Remember I told you about J'Lee going to basketball camp. Here she is with her certificate. She was so excited about it and was even more excited when Coach Briggs gave her the "favorite camper of the week" award.
This last picture makes me heart flutter.
To you it looks like some crazy boy with funny glasses charging me. But what is so great about this picture is that I started about 300 yards away and when he saw me, he started waving his hands in the air and kept jumping. As I got closer I could hear him say "Hi Mommy"! Then he started charging towards me.
And yes, my favorite part of our nursery {more pics late}:
We have a wall that is grey and white striped and I LOVE IT!
Hopefully the next time you hear from me, I will have a sweet little angel in my arms!

Hey!
Well, Thanks. I enjoy watching your family grow in size and age! So cute! And you mean about time for another one for yourself, right? hahaha! Try having two at once and that may slow you down a bit! hahahaha! My brothers and their growing familys are providing me with all the newborn cuteness I need!!
My mom told me she saw you and Jamie but was caught in the middle of the elevator flow to say much mor than hi! Everybody is good, my grandfather was having a procedure but all is well!
Since you will soon be on "vacation" I expect lots and lots of pictures! :)
As you get impatient (as all pregnant mommies do) remember what a sweet angel he is being for listening to you. He heard you say you wanted to get as close to your due date as possible for your time off to work just like you wanted. See, he's just helping out. J'Lee's picture had me seriously laughing out loud. I was expecting the baby to be added later, but no she just left out Jaxon. That's too funny. Any sister would do the same thing. :-)
