The Last Few Weeks

Well, once again we have been super busy but it has been so much fun!

1. A few weeks ago Nate and I got to spend the weekend away at the Gaylord Texan. He won 2 free nights at work and it was so wonderful! We slept in until 9:20 on Saturday morning August the 9th and marked it as the last time for a long time to come! So wonderful! The weekend basically consisted of sleeping, eating, and a little shopping...right up my alley.

A random picture before dinner - 30 weeks!

2. We went to College Station to see Nate's grandfather (his birthday weekend mentioned before) and got to spend time with our good friends from college, Daniel and Amber. They are due 2 weeks before us so it was really fun to talk baby all weekend. We also got to spend some time with Nate's family and watch the little kids bowl...too cute!

3. We finally have all the nursery furniture so we moved the last of it in, hung his name on the wall, hung the curtains my aunt made, washed some clothes and started organizing. The first load of little man clothes was too cute...so much blue!
4. We have finally "finished" our house. Everything we have been talking about doing for the past year and a half is done. We figured if we didnt do it before Pierson got here we probably wouldnt anytime soon. It feels so nice!

5. Work threw me a WONDERFUL shower and we got our carseat and stroller!!! Are you serious...this is one of the best gifts ever because you can't leave the hospital without having this one! It was so much fun and Nate and I felt so loved by everyone that I work with!

Me and Katie

Really excited...he picked out the stroller!

It was a huge accomplishment for him to put this thing together!

6. My wonderful family and friends threw me a great shower. The invitations were precious, the games and little details so much fun and cute, the food and cake were amazing! I am still eating it! :) They spent so much time thinking of every little thing you can imagine and once again we feel so loved! We got SO many wonderful gifts that we will use and enjoy!

Erin, Sara, Lindsay, Me, Jennifer, Megan, Kellie, and Jana - all the hostesses!

How cute are these!! Nate was obviously excited since he called our child Natron until we decided on Pierson. I think he is still hoping he will get to name one of our children this and I have no doubt that Pierson will be Natron every once and a while!

I go back to the doctor on Friday and I am hoping to find out if we think this child will come early. My feet and ankles can hardly take it anymore! I have some serious cankles! I broke a pair of shoes last week at work. They just couldnt take the pressure anymore! I never thought I would post pictures of my feet but here they are in all their glory!
Check those babies out! Check out how far apart those shoe laces are!


The shoe...I am saving it! :)
