7 1/2 Months

Hey All! These last two weeks have went by very fast! It's hard to believe we have hit the 30 week mark with little Baby Chucta, little he/she will be here before we know it :) We couldn't be more excited.....with this being said I've been a little baby shopping crazy....haha but we've gotten some great deals with garage sales, consignment shops, and craigslist. I love finding a good deal, it makes me so excited :) Haha I know I'm a big dork! Nate likes to sleep in on Saturday mornings and I am thrilled to get up and go to garage sales. I have found some really nice quality baby items at great prices. This week we got our swing in the mail and our new travel system....it's making it all seem more real!

I have to remember not to go to baby crazy since we have some baby showers coming up. We are very excited for the upcoming events (at least I am!). Julie (Nate's Mom) is throwing us an "in the mail" baby shower on the 22nd of May, and then we will have one at my work thrown by my wonderful assistant on May 17th....and yet another one sometime with Nate's work. We are saving the baby shower for friends and family back in Michigan until after the baby is born and we are able to make the trip up. As of right now, depending on when the baby comes we will be planning our trip up for late July/early August. We still aren't sure if we will be driving or flying, but either way we are super excited to see everyone and for everyone to meet little baby Chucta. I am also excited about getting a little sun and maybe enjoying a nice, cold, Oberon:)

A few upcoming things we are looking forward to in these next few weeks: A doctor's appointment on the 30th (and then every 2 weeks after), My birthday on the 2nd (the big 2-5!), and my parents coming down to visit on the 8th :) It should be a good time, lots of things to smile about! Now if only I could get rid of this heartburn....haha it's not awful, but lately at night I've been getting a slight case of it and it just makes me uncomfortable more than anything...I'm sure it will pass though and if the rumors are true Baby Chucta will have a head full of hair :) We hope you all have a great week and we will keep you updated with our next doctor's appointment. Love you all!
