38 days!


Grayson and I at 35 weeks.
About 38 days until I get to meet my sweet Grayson! I'm so excited, nervous, scared, joyful, and so many other emotions at the same time. I'm finally off work all the time now, so no worrying about going into labor an hour away from my hospital! There are SO many things that need done between now and then, so I'm thankful to God for this time! Even better, Travis finished flight school so he gets to stay home with me during this month, too! I'm feeling good for the most part - at night I get very uncomfortable but the days are pretty good. I've been so blessed to have an easy pregnancy! I find out the results of my heart test July 7, so I will be sure to keep everyone informed. We are praying for good news, and I don't expect anything less! At my last appointment my doctor said that Grayson looks "average" sized, so that is good news, too. At my next appointment we will find out if he's in the right position. Just thought I'd give everyone a little update!

a bit of a "slack"er

So, after hearing complaints countless times from countless people...I decided I better update my blog! I guess I feel like my pregnancy has been rather uneventful, which is a good thing, actually.
I went to the doctor last week and Grayson is doing great!! His heartbeat continues to be in the 150's. I also went to the cardiologist and she said that there's nothing to be worried about at the moment, which is good news. I am having an ultrasound on my heart on the 23rd (but won't find out the results until July 7) because she heard a heart murmur and saw delayed electical activity in my heart on the EKG (which she said is nothing serious). She seems to think all my problems are pregnancy/anemia related, so she said she wasn't too concerned.
I've has three showers so far (and one tomorrow) and Grayson got so many nice things!!! We are so blessed to have people love us so much that they want to share in our joy! We feel so loved!!!!!
Other than swollen feet, rib pains, and being tired all the time, I feel great! I feel so lucky to have such a smooth sailing pregnancy! We are praying for a safe and easy delivery! Until then, I'm enjoying my time off from work, getting Gray's room ready, and spending afternoons at the beach under my umbrella! Life is good!! God is good!!!
