Cooper S

Coop and I went to the Doc again last friday! I gained tons more weight...I'm up to 124lbs! So all is good on that front! Everything else is good, he is measuring well, his little heartbeat is good and the doc says all the swelling is normal due to the end of the pregnancy and the heat! He put on a little show while the doc was taking his heartbeat, he was squirming the whole time! :)

The shower is this weekend, Mom and I have been preparing some fun games and Sash and Salina helped us with everything else this weekend! Looking forward to seeing everyone!

"if that boy gets another pair of shoes i'm not gonna let him in the house"---Grandpa says after Cooper got his 4th pair!

"Hes a boy after my own heart!"---what Mommy says, his shoe collection is gonna have to be as big as mine! :)

Lets hope he doesn't have huge old feet that don't fit into these adorable sneakers! :)

In other news...The exercise ball suggested by my Lamaze teacher has been a major relief on the back and belly and I've also been swimming/floating a lot in the Hernandez pool which is really helping with the swollen feet and ankles! Its getting so close now and the excitement is just building up inside of me! I don't even care if hes going to keep me up all night, I just want to meet him and hold him in my arms! (I'm sure this will change once I actually do have him keeping me up all night :)

Yesterday I had my check up at the Drs. I got a GOLD STAR because I gained 5 more lbs and the baby measured perfect! I also had cool hair, and a shirt that not just anyone could wear :) oh and the nurse said I was just the cutest darn thing shes ever seen!

Today I had Lamaze class, I somehow talked my mom into going with! It was fun, and funny, and informational! It was a 6 hr class but it also included a tour at the end! I was of course the only non couple but that's OK my mom was good to have and she was actually able to help and share some of her stories and experience! I wont go into detail about what we learned but I do feel good about the upcoming events and well prepared for labor and delivery!

The days are counting down quickly

Hey guys, I thought this would be a good way to keep you updated on my journey to motherhood! The days are slowly fading away and soon there will be a new little man in my life! I can't wait to meet him and get to know him. Everyday that goes by I get more and more excited, I have about 6 weeks left and hes growing quickly now, my last doctors visit I got an ultrasound because the doctor was worried that I'm not gaining enough weight and that my stomach was measuring small, but during the ultrasound the ultrasound technician said that he was growing perfectly! He weighed 4lbs 6oz. I go to see my doctor again tomorrow, I know according to my family they have never seen me eat sooo much so hopefully I'm gaining more weight and the doctor will be happy with that!

July 31th is the baby shower! I have sent you all invites and hope you can make it, I know some of you out of towners will not be able to but I wanted to include you as well! I am registered at Babies-R-US and Target under Kimberly Shigeno!

We have the room all ready for Coopers arrival...my mom has been an amazing help, shes bought the crib and all the bedding (its jungle themed) and I know that her and my dad are just as excited to meet Cooper as I am! They even talk to him, sing to him and bribe him to come out with cookies! Hes even given Grandpa a high five! :)
