Maternity Pics

My good friend Marissa took these maternity pictures. I was about 31 weeks when they were taken. It was special for me to have these done since I am so excited to finally be pregnant and may never get to experience this again. She did a great job. Thanks Marissa!!

Still no Ambree as of today. But I will be induced Monday. Yaa!

39 1/2 Weeks

Ambree must not be ready to come into the world yet. Mommy is though, but that's okay. I know she will come on the day God has planned for her. I can't believe it's been 9 months. This past year I had prayed and asked God if I could experience at least one pregnancy in my lifetime. We would adopt all of our kids, but my hearts desire was to go through this experience from start to finish and deliver a healthy baby one time in my life, even if I was 40 and it happened, that would be ok. And God surprised and blessed us now. And that still amazes me. I have enjoyed this whole process, the good and the uncomfortable. And I want to go into labor on my own, I'm tempted to be induced but I can't stop now. God is been in control and blessed us this whole time and I know He will finish this through in His timing. Psalm 5:3 "In the morning Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly."

Easter Egg Hunt and Shower

We had an early Easter egg hunt with Reese at my parents house, since I will probably be having the baby sometime around Easter. She had so much fun and wanted to carry around her basket with her all day long. She's so precious!

My sweet friends threw me a surprise shower/lunch. I had no idea and it was so special of them to do that. Thanks girls! Love yall!

38 Weeks

I'm now 3 cm and 80%. Ya!

Week 37

Cody's parents had their 50th wedding anniversary party the other night, Congratulations Mimi and Papaw! Cody's giving his speech.

I get together with a couple of friends and their little girls about once a month. And here are the girls, Reese, Grace and Caroline. Reese has so much fun with them. Caroline is 6 weeks older and Grace and Reese are two days apart, so they are very close. The three of us friends went through infertility together for years and God blessed us all at the same time which makes for special friendships. Love you girls!

37 weeks down, and 3 weeks to go! I think I had my first contraction the other night, it went away obviously, but we are on the home stretch. And I am already dilated some. We are ready to meet Ambree soon! Ya!

5 1/2 more weeks

Once I started embroidering these onsies and burp clothes, I guess I made it official. No turning back now, this baby will be Ambree Jadyn. And we put her name in our Will that we just finished. I've been painting Reese's new room and the bathroom that they will share these past few weeks. I don't know why I waited this long to paint. I have to take lots of breaks. Anyway, so the towels I embroidered are for their bathroom. Once it's all finished I'll have to show some pictures.

34 1/2 weeks

Rodeo Time

I love the rodeo time. Reese got to see animals three times this week. They brought animals to pet at church this past week and then I meet a friend at the rodeo on Tuesday and they had ponies at her mother's day out. I can't believe she is almost 2 in just a few months. She says so many words and does the cutest things. We started her with swimming lessons this spring. She is just so much fun has a looootttt of energy!
