Getting Close!

The last few (or maybe couple) of weeks are coming to an end before Eli gets here. Chris and I are so excited, but nervous. I had my shower last weekend and about 70 friends and family showed up. I am so grateful for the support. Eli is definitely going to be one blessed little boy. 

Chris and I also got our pictures taken. They turned out well and we are going to get some printed for family. 

I have been having swollen feet and it has been pretty uncomfortable to lie down to sleep at night, but other than that and my morning sickness during the first trimester, my pregnancy hasn't been too bad. I am lucky I haven't had any problems. Girls, if you are thinking about getting pregnant, take care of yourself before and during pregnancy. I even lost about 10 pounds before I got pregnant. Extra weight is not fun on top of being pregnant. 

Excited and Nervous

It is now April and that means next month Eli will be here. I am really nervous, but ready for him to be here. I know Chris is ready too.

 A couple of weeks ago we went to Ultrasona again to see Eli again. Every time I see him, I want to cry. I still lift my shirt while I am watching TV and just watch him kick and move. It will never stop amazing me. Chris bought the ultrasound  for me for my birthday. He also bought me a prenatal massage. I think I have the best husband ever! 

I pray every day that Chris and I are good parents. I want Eli to have a childhood like I did. I am grateful for strict, but loving parents. Their prayers (along with others) have kept me out of trouble and I have made good decisions( some bad too) in my life. Eli is going to be one blessed and spoiled( but not a brat) boy. I can't wait to see the kind of man he grows up to be. 

I love his face!

Look at that smile!
