Pictures of Baby Room

Week 35

Wow, I am finally posting something new on the blog!! Sorry it has taken me forever, but I have been so busy with school and trying to get the baby room all in order. So let us catch you up on everything that has taken place the past month. We had an amazing baby shower on August 30th and it took us two weeks to organize all her new goodies in her room. :) But we are finally finished!! Yeah! Thanks again for all the wonderful gifts, she is going to love them!! We had another doctor's appointment on Tuesday the 15th and everything went great. I am measuring exactly 35 weeks and her heart rate was in the 140's. My next visit is on Sep. 29th and then he will schedule a sonogram to see how big she is. I will then have to start going to the doctor every week. We can't believe she will be here in about 4 or 5 weeks. Oh, by the way, Derik is officially back at home working in Ft. Worth again! He made it back just in time for the baby and to give me foot massages every night! I also put him to work putting all the baby furniture together. He has been such a trooper because as soon as he got back he put everything together for me and has been so much help. Well, I hope everyone is doing well and I will try and do better the next four weeks of updating the blog. We will definitely let everyone know when she gets here!! Take care!

Love Always,

Derik, Joni , and Abbey

3D Sonogram Pictures

Here is one of her 3D sonogram pictures. She was being really stubborn the whole time because she would never move her hands from her mouth. She also had everything surrounded by her face. But it was a fun experience and we enjoyed getting to see her a little better. We can't wait until October!! Enjoy!

Belly Week 30

Dr.'s Appointment

Today we went in for another regular check-up and everything sounded great! Her heartbeat was in the 150's and when he measured my belly I am exactly where I should be (28 1/2 weeks). She is definitely getting bigger and she continues to kick and punch all day! She has tons of energy and loves keeping me up at night. Well, since we are in the last trimester we have to start going to the doctor every two weeks. So our next appointment is August 17th. We will keep you updated and let you know how everything is going, so keep checking in. Hope everyone is doing well!

Love, Derik, Joni, & Baby "P"
