Nervous!!!



What a crazy weekend we had!!  Chad and I attended a day long birthing class at the hospital.  I was very excited to learn and feel more prepared for the big day.  However, after 7 hours I left very nervous, overwhelmed, and NOT ready to give birth.  I guess its a little too late to be considering this.  I have started to calm down and realized that even though they talk about having a plan, you really can't plan for this.  How and when she comes is not up to me.  I just need to let go of my planning self and just focus on the excitement of meeting and seeing our beautiful baby girl.  After our meeting, I talked Chad into going to Target to finish getting a few things we needed from there.  This helped me take my mind off all the information we just had imbedded into our brains.

Sunday was a relaxing day of laundry, organization, and taking some time for me!!!  Haven't done that in a while!!

Changes!!!

I know that it has been forever since I last posted, but I am going to try and get on track again.  We have had lots of changes since my last post.
My Niece, Luna Anne Fischer, was born in August.  She has become a wonderful addition to our family. She is now almost 9 months old and starting to show her personality every moment.
Looks like she is going to have curly hair like her dad and aunt Laura.  Good thing I can help because all dad would do is cut it off.

Another big change in our household is we are expecting a baby girl towards the end of July, July 20 is my due date.  This pregnancy has gone pretty well, normal sickness at  the beginning and just feeling huge now.  With just two weeks left of school, I am looking forward to getting prepared for her arrival.  Both Chad and I can't wait to have a little girl, it will be different from the boys, but we can't wait.

Last weekend, my wonderful friends, sister-in-law, and mom threw me the best shower in the world.  They took the owl theme that we are doing in her bedroom and ran with it, they had owl cupcakes, owl decorations, owl thank you cards, and the cutest owl ornaments (thanks so much Lisa).  Not to mention the food; broccoli cheese soup, veggie pizza, kelly's wonderful salad, chicken salad sandwich, and fruit with dip.  Mmmm!!!


Amazingly, Kate (my best friend since middle school) and I are pregnant at the same time as well.  She is three weeks behind me, we will see how close or far away we actually deliver from each other soon.
More pictures to come of the shower, people, and gifts.
