Our Big Boy!

I wish I had some good pictures to go with this post but just some fun facts!  I went to the doctor today and had a great check up!!  Charlie is weighing in at a HARTY 4lbs 8 ounces!  He is in the 60.8th percentile and is measuring about 1 week ahead!  Dr. Waterfallen said that is great!  Oh, and he has long legs??  He doesn't get that from the Papa/Cotter family so it must be the Harts! He also said he would let me go as long as I wanted but that by 39 weeks he bets Charlie makes his appearance!  I hope he is right but I don't want to get my hopes up!  He is head down and has dropped quite alot since last time.  He said there is alot more room up top when 2 weeks ago I had NONE!!  I can't believe it but I feel like there is a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel!!!

Been a while....

BOY, do I have a lot to report!!  I am sorry I haven't posted in FOREVER but I have been quite busy....well maybe tired and lazy!  I think the last time I posted we had just found out we were having a little boy and Travis and I had gone on a shopping spree.  I think I was about 16-18 weeks!  Well, I've made it to the 32 week mark. WOW!!!  I feel about 50 weeks though!  In this time we have been working hard to stay healthy and prepare for baby Charlie!!  At about 28 weeks I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and was not happy about it!! Since then I have embraced it and realized maybe it was a blessing!  I haven't gained any weight for over 8 weeks!!  Don't worry, the belly is steadily growing...it's pretty much out of control!!  On a better note, I had 2 wonderful baby showers!  The first was given by my closest girlfriends and I got some WONDERFUL things!!!  The next was given by a mixture of family and friends and was AMAZING!!!  Again, I got some awesome gifts!!  Thank you to everyone for coming and hosting!!  I couldn't be more grateful!! 

On to the nursery!!!  If I do say so myself....IT'S AMAZING!!!  Everything turned out just the way I had imagined!!  Sometimes I have these wild ideas and realize after that maybe it wasn't such a good plan!!  This is not the case with Charlies nursery!!  It is picture perfect!!  I am putting the final touches on it and can't wait to share the final masterpiece!!!  I have gotten so many compliments on it, so thank you to everyone who helped make it a success!

About 28 weeks!  Look below at the difference at 31.5 weeks
