Happy Easter!


We hope everyone had a great Easter! Although it was rainy we celebrated with an indoor egg hunt on Saturday and church then brunch with friends on Sunday. This was our last weekend just the three of us before Mom and Dad H come down, so we spent time together and did a few final preparations for the baby's arrival. Putting the bucket car seat back in made it feel extra real! 

I had an appointment last Wednesday and again this past Monday. Things are moving along! I have been off my medication for Factor V for about five days now, so he/she can come anytime! If the little one doesn't make his/her appearance by early to mid next week, we will likely be scheduling an induction so I'm not off the anti-coagulant for too long. I'll be 39 weeks this Saturday if I hang on that long. Overall feeling pretty great still just a bit fatigued and tired - so I should be used to it when the baby comes, right?!

Some photos to leave with you...

37.5 Weeks!

Oh my dear precious boy! We can only get him to nap at home if we drive around for a bit. If I bring him in right away he'll fall back asleep on me. I'll take it! 

Easter egg hunt got rained out so we ran around a gym and collected eggs instead.

Family of three still.

Happy Easter! 38 weeks!

FL Friends Showering us with Loads of Love

I have to say I feel very grateful and blessed to have some great friends in FL. It makes it a bit easier being away from family knowing we have loving friends here who are genuinely excited about Baby Underwood's arrival and spending time with him/her. Three special girls, Calli, Libby and Natalie, planned an Aussie-themed shower to go with the nursery theme. It was adorable and all so appreciated. Thanks to them and all the ladies who were able to make it out for a Sunday afternoon dedicated to celebrating the pending arrival of Baby U. Much love! Hand-knit koala hat! Brooke - you are so good! Lots of our FL family. Aussie-themed cupcakes, and they tasted great, too! To see the full album check it out here . Our last appointment went well! I passed my gestational diabetes test, uterus measured well, heart beat of the baby was strong, my weight was still right on and blood pressure was ... well, it is okay compared to where it has been. One more appointment...

First Trimester Fun

LENGTH WARNING: Last post and this post are catching you up and will serve as a memory for us in the future, so we apologize they are a little long. Once we got home and settled from our European adventures we hunkered down while I fought daily fatigue, a decent amount of nausea, a few food aversions and a heightened sense of smell that often left me holding my noise and running away from its source. Our first doctor's appointment was scheduled for 8 1/2 weeks and it seemed like forever away. One huge blessing is working from home where I don't have to get ready or act "normal". Stefan and Andrew helped out with some cleaning, cooking and errands while I really took it down a notch. I normally have a hard time resting and relaxing and not accomplishing much in a day, so my July was a bit different. The first appointment was great for the most part. We got confirmation and even got an ultra sound. We could see it's little heart beating although we won...
