Update

On Saturday my sisters threw a baby shower for me and it was so much fun! They did a great job of putting it together and I had a blast seeing friends that I hardly ever get to see. This child of mine was absolutely spoiled. She will be outfitted for years to come. I received a lot of homemade gifts this time around. I know most people don't like the thought of homemade gifts, but my friends are amazingly talented! I got burp rags, onesies, bracelets, blankets and even hair bows that are all done by hand and they are so cute! I will have to take pictures of them to post. What was funny is that a lot of the cards and even one of the onesies had the name Brooklyn on it. I think there are a lot of people counting on that name. To be honest, I am too. I think I will be devastated if I can't name her that. Anyways, I should have taken pictures, but I didn't have time too in all the chaos (fun chaos might I add).

Moving has been a bit crazy. Every night this week Chad and I have been taking over two car loads of boxes so that the move on Saturday will be minimal. I have to say we are making great progress! I was really nervous and stressed about it for a while, but I am totally relaxed about it now. I have just come to the conclusion that the baby is going to come and things won't be perfect at the house. I will have things in the wrong places, they might be unorganized and rooms probably won't be painted, but eventually it will be. Those thoughts are keeping me sane right now! I know that I can get things done while the baby naps and Chad will definitely be getting us settled too.

As for the baby, I think we might have an April baby rather than May. I went in for my appointment today and got good news and bad news. Bad news: I gained 3 pounds in two weeks! I have never done that before. Good news: The doctor noticed that I am swollen, so it is mostly water weight. Other good news: I am already dilated to a 1. I didn't think too much of it until the doctor was about to leave and he said to call if my water breaks or I start getting contractions. I have been having contractions almost daily now and I know I am going to have back labor again (yikes). I guess we are just about any time now! My new ward is throwing me a baby shower also along with another girl in the ward that is moving as well. I just found out that it will be postponed a week, so by that time I might just be able to bring her with! There are so many fun changes going on right now in our lives, but I have to admit I will really miss this ward even thought I don't know many people in it. I have just enjoyed the people and felt like we fit in with our young family. I am hoping when it is time to buy a house that we will be able to come back to this area and be in this ward again!
