Here is a picture of Zach practicing what we learned in the Baby Essentials class with our cat!

House Pics

Here are some recent pictures of our future house! Today Zach and I went to a class at Northside Hospital called 'Baby Essentials'. It was a lot of fun! We learned to to dress, hold, change the diaper, bath, and swaddle a doll. Zach changed his first diaper! He did really well at everything!!

Baby Shower

We had a busy and fun weekend! On Saturday my friend Melissa and her mother threw a baby shower and it was wonderful. Thank you to everyone who came and sent presents for David! It was at a cafe in Gwinnett and it was a perfect shower! On Sunday Zach and I went to a childbirth class given by Northside Hospital. It was a little bit scary! They showed a video of a woman giving birth. Today is my last day of week 32 and my next doctor's appointment is on Tuesday. So far everything is going well with the pregnancy. (although we are still waiting for baby eaton to flip from his breech position) My stomach is continuing to grow! On another note, Zach's job is going well, but we are not enojoying being seperated all week.

Weekend Adventures

Zach and I went to Charlotte this weekend to go to a family friend's wedding. We had a good time seeing family that we hadn't seen in a while! Unfortunately, we didn't take any pictures. However, we do have a picture of the house we are trying to buy!! Hopefully we will close sometime at the end of July. (Our lease on our apartment in Atlanta ends August 1st so we need somewhere to move our stuff!) I also had a 30 week doctor's appointment today and everything is going well. I heard the heartbeat and had my stomach measured. Starting now I go to the doctor every 2 weeks and at week 35 I start going every week! Our due date is August 22nd so we have about 2 more months to go! I'm trying to set things up at work so I can go on maternity leave 2 weeks prior to my due date but I'm having some difficulty, so we'll see how that goes. I think my job would like you to have a baby Friday night and come back to work Monday morning. I'm not too happy with them right now!

Latest Ultrasound

This is the picture from our latest ultrasound on May 25th (27 weeks and 1 day). The doctor said our baby looks great! Right now he is 2.5 pounds and the doctor predicts he will be 8.5 pounds if carried to full term. He looked so squished during the ultrasound! It was hard to tell one body part from another. At one point, Zach asked the doctor 'is that his head?' and the doctor said 'no, that's his abdomen!'.

Zach's New Job

Zach started his new job at Robins Air Force Base in Warner Robins, GA last Tuesday, May 29th. He is working as a civilian government employee in the engineering department that does maintenance on F-15's. He has been and will be in orientation until this Thursday. He hasn't even met his boss yet! He is living in his friend Justin's apartment during the week and traveling back to Atlanta to stay with me on the weekends. I miss him already! Since I didn't have this blog up earlier I will post some pictures from my friend Rachel's wedding that happened a couple of weekends ago. I was 6 months pregnant in these pictures.

Welcome!

I thought this might be fun to do since Zach and I have so much going on right now! I'm going to try to post pictures and updates leading up to the baby's arrival in August .
