Jaiden's Room

Here are some pictures of Jaiden's room. I finally have it ready for her. I can't wait to see her in her crib!

Update

Sorry this is late. I went to the doctor on Wednesday and everything is still looking great. I hadn't made any more progress but she is head down which means no c-section! Well that is if everything goes good with the labor process. I am praying that it all goes well and ask you to pray as well. We are just playing the waiting game, which is fun and torture all at the same time. I am still feeling good but have definitely slowed down a little bit. I have good intentions of getting everything ready but then I just feel like I need a nap! :0) So everything may not be 100% done when she gets here but the important things are completed and ready to go.

Here are some funny things Hannah has been saying lately...

* She loves to read books. The other day she asked me to read a book to her but I told her to wait and she replied "But mommy I don't know the magic words!" This means I don't know how to read!

* She has been very aware of people lately and loves to point out faults & embarrass me to death! The other day we were in Publix, a man was stocking the shelf. He was bald and has a fat roll on the back of his neck. Hannah asks (very loudly) "Hey, why do you have a crack in your head?" I pushed the shopping cart as fast as I could out of there hoping he wouldn't notice she was talking to him!

* Last night we went to Mark & Shana's house to watch the Auburn game. We ate hamburgers (which Hannah just ate the meat). Apparently she has some stuck in her teeth and she was picking it. Sandra (Mark's mom) asked her what she had in her mouth and she said "a taco."

* A few minutes ago we were in Jaiden's room hanging ladybugs on the wall. Hannah's Gus-Gus (the mouse from Cinderella) was in there. I told her I found him and she said "He doesn't live in here!" I wonder how she is going to feel when Jaiden can play with her stuff. I may be in for it! :0)

I know that I have forgotten some things I wanted to post on here but that is the memory of a very pregnant lady! I am lucky to remember my name these days!

Look, mom I can dress myself...

Hannah has become very independent and wants to dress herself lately. She does a great job getting her clothes on and I am excited because this will help me out so much when Jaiden gets here. The only problem is that this is what she looks like if she chooses what she is going to wear...



She hasn't figured out how to match her clothes and she will just wear any shoes she wants. She has even tried to leave the house with her Cinderella "swippers" as she calls them, which translated is slippers. I usually give her a choice of two things to wear. If she requests something else and it is appropriate (like another dress for church & not shorts) then she can wear it but I am NOT a negotiator (not with a three year old). So what I pick she has to wear but I usually just try to convince her it is her idea. We normally don't have any problems. Luckily this day we were just going to church to work on Ladies Day so she got to wear this. She was so proud (and so adorable, I might add)!

Wednesday I went for my doctor's appointment. Jaiden's heart rate was 148 and I am measuring 36 weeks, 3 days exactly. I have made some progress but won't post all the details just know that we are slowly on our way to Jaiden making her big debut! I am only 3 weeks away from my due date! Of course, it could be any day now and I am considered full term now since I am 37 weeks along. So that is great! Everything in her nursery is done except the things I have bought to hang on her walls. I ordered a wall decal to go over her bed last week so it should be in this week. I am hoping it comes in soon. I will post pics ASAP! In the meantime, here is a pic of me at 37 weeks taken this morning! WOW! It's no wonder people think I am going to go into labor at anytime!


Thursday night I went to the Kids Market and got some GREAT stuff! I spent $122 for 32 items so that equals out to about $3.80 for each item. I am so proud of all of the cute stuff I bought. Amy, mom, & I had fun shopping. We were there for 4 hours!

Saturday was our Ladies Day and it was a great day! If you missed it, you really missed a treat. Cherry Chesser was our speaker and she did an excellent job. We worked until midnight (some later - I was tired and went home first)on Friday night getting the food & decorations ready. It all looked so cute & the food was great. I think we had about 65 in attendance. I enjoyed it so much & look forward to next year.

We went to watch the Auburn game last night at David & Susan's. It was a GREAT game! I almost went into labor a few times from the excitement but luckily Jaiden held on & so did Auburn. They pulled out a W and I was happy but very ready for bed! We were all asleep within 10 minutes of getting home!

This week we will be going to the library and I have another doctor's visit. I am ready to see if I have made any more progress. I will update ASAP! Hope you all have a great week! Enjoy this picture Josh took of our little prissy tom-boy this morning. Looking at this sweet face makes my week!
