Final Preparations

As our baby is currently in the final stages of construction, we couldn't resist getting this picture...


No, we still don't have a name yet. We honestly just can't decide on one. A friend told us if we didn't think of a name by the time he was born, that he would name the baby for us. So that gives us plenty of motivation! :)

As for now, we're making the final preparations for baby's arrival (although it's looking like he's in no hurry) running final errands, hair-cuts, freezing food, organizing his room and taking lots of walks! We're also taking advantage of the time we have now with friends as who knows how schedules will conflict once the baby's here.

(My friend, Natasha, was due 3 weeks before me- guess it's my turn now!)
Travis and I are also taking advantage of this time before parenthood (I guess you can say we've taken advantage of the last three years!). We've had many evening walks, movie nights and trips to 7-Peaks. Now that he's done with his thesis (which he did an AMAZING job defending...), he's done with school this summer so he's been home with me all day, which has been heaven! I feel so spoiled; I just want to freeze time right now and bottle it up. It'll be hard once school starts up in a few weeks and he'll be gone again. We celebrated our three year anniversary last week by going to Tucanos and the Hale Center Theater. He then surprised me afterward and stopped at Cold Stone on the way home. We've now had three wonderful years of marriage together, and an eternity left to go! To be honest, I'm a little nervous with how much things will change once our son's here, but Travis assures me that though there will be trying times, life will be even better, and that we'll still make time to do things "just the two of us". Words can't express how grateful I am for him! He's always been such a strength to me.


We are so excited for our baby to come- it seems like these nine months have gone by so slow! It's crazy to think we'll be meeting him anytime within the next couple of weeks!
