What a Ride!!

Man that season was fun!! Not only did K-State totally exceed our expectations, but they raised the bar for next season. And to think that this was our final "rebuilding" year before we were "supposed" to compete with the big boys! Look for this team to be even better next year and don't be surprised to see Jake cutting down the nets in Houston next April!

At least now we don't have to worry about our baby girl coming during a K-State game ;)

Big Day (37 Weeks)!

If our baby girl would be born today she would be considered full term!!! That's the best thing I could ask for and I'm so happy we have made it to this point. Now, how to get her to come out... Just kidding, I'm sure she still needs a few more weeks to make sure she's ready to come into this world. We go back to the dr. today and get to meet our pediatrician also so for some reason I'm kind of excited about that:)

On another note, root on our cats tonight!!! Sweet sixteen!!!! Let's hope they can pull off another win against Xavier! Wear your purple proud!

Come on K-State!!!

Is it time yet???

I'm getting so antsy and ready to meet this little girl I almost can't stand it! But we are trying to keep busy and get as much done and enjoy as much time as we can before her arrival.

My wonderful friends threw me an awesome baby shower 2 weekends ago, which was so much fun! It was great seeing everyone there:) Here are a few pictures from it...



Her first K-State outfit from Daniel's parents!!




This past weekend Daniel and I were able to go watch K-State play Baylor at the Sprint Center for the Big 12 tournament. That was super fun, a great game, yet quite uncomfortable sitting for a long period of time. I can't begin to count how many people either stared as we walked by or commented on my belly. I've had several people ask me when I am due and when I tell them they look surprised and respond with, "You definitely won't make it that far," or, "I thought you were further along than that!" So I guess that means the baby is growing, right? It's a good thing for people to say that:) Well here is my week 35 picture so you can judge for yourself how "huge" I am:)



She sure is moving around a lot recently and obviously has very little room to move as she makes my belly into various shapes and sizes all over. She's definitely learned to give me a good kick in the side and ribs, too! It just makes me laugh when she does that, I'm just happy she's moving around in there. And as I've mentioned before she still gets the hiccups at least 2-3 times a day, she even has them right now:)

We are now down to our weekly Dr. appointments so that's exciting to know we are that close. I feel like it's so close yet so far away. I just can't wait to see this little girl and hold her in my arms!!

34 Weeks

As of today we have 6 weeks left until our due date!! I went to the Dr. today and as usual it was a quick visit with her telling me everything is looking good and I'm still measuring right on target at 34 inches (I think it's inches, maybe it's cm, well that's why I'm an OT b/c I don't have to measure stuff often...). I like the quick visits because that means everything is going well so far. Our girl's heartbeat is still good and as usual the Dr. said she was moving around again:) Actually she had the hiccups today while I was there. She is getting the hiccups 2-3 times a day now! But the Dr. reassured me that it was normal and that her lungs were just getting ready to function in the outside world. The Dr. also felt around for her head position today and said she is facing down, which is a good thing as long as she doesn't move and get into a breech position. So hopefully this baby will stay where she is! Otherwise things are going well. Her room is all ready for her to make her arrival, although I think we'd like to wait a few more weeks until we meet her to make sure she is ready to face this world!!
