Week 38 and 6 days

Here we are Sunday, Nov. 1 at 38 weeks and 6 days. It has been a great weekend of Tiger football (winning against Coastal Carolina), downtime at home, homemade Chocolate Chip cookies and waiting on our little lady to arrive.

Stay tuned.

Week 39

We had our 38 Week Doctor's appt. today. Everything looked really good, size measured fine and heartbeat was in the 130s. I'm still only 1cm dilated, so that was a bit of a bummer. I did mention that I felt less activity over the past few days, so they set us up for an ultrasound. Lee & I did not complain one bit and we had a chance to see our little lady again.

She is just fine–moving around really well. She has strong fetal breathing, which we learned is the diaphragm moving. And, just for Lee, it's still confirmed - It's a Girl! He has been quite concerned that she would be a he and have to wear pink for the first few days in the world.

Here's to 2 more weeks...Stay tuned.

Week 38

So, here we are at 38 weeks. Only 2 more weeks to go or 14 days - according to the countdown clock. Baby Galloway is officially full-term, so she can grace us with her presence at anytime! Lee & I can't wait to meet her and I know that all of you can't wait to learn her name. Not too much longer!

At the 37 week, 3 days appointment last Thursday, I was 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced. So at this point, we are just waiting and that's about it. The room is ready, tiny socks and hats are washed, the car seat is installed and we are on go!

Without further ado...the nursery!

Welcome!

A place for changing, reading & snuggles with Mom & Dad!

Sweet Dreams!

The rug we need an opinion on...yeah or neh?

A family heirloom, LuLu & Uncle Kody slept here and so did Sara, Preston & me (Mom.)

Friends waiting to snuggle!

A little spot to rock and read to Bella-dog!

The swing from Auntie Sara & Uncle Craig

Lee & I are proud to show off our little girl's room, it has finally come together. We can't wait to show her around and have her in her room.

Oh and let us know what you think about the rug. Comments please!

Wilmington NC Baby Shower

Auntie Sara Vance and Beth Whiteside hosted a shower for Miss Priss Galloway and it was just super cute. Above are the Guest Gifts (Pink M&Ms), the yummy food and the delicious little cakes! And below, two friends (Me & Carmen) and two soon-to-be friends, Baby Galloway & Baby Sawyers, the guests & the hostess with the most style!

Thanks for a fun afternoon and for all the sweet gifts for our little girl!

MBHS Class of 2009...10 years later

So...here I am 10 years later. This fall my fellow classmates from MBHS celebrated our reunion!

Week 35

Whoa Baby!

Here we are at 35 Weeks...just 5 more to go and Baby Galloway is making her presence known. This gal continues to be active - should Mom & Dad be worried??

We are progressing really well. I am not sleeping well at night, but they say that's preparation for many sleepless nights to come.

Can't wait to meet our little lady in just a few short weeks!
