Thanks to Brianna!
She took some pictures for me today, I will be honest I didn't want any, not my favorite time right now, but she did so good, and she is really a great photographer. I love how they turned out, and will cherish them forever. I probably shouldn't have waited until like 19 days before my due date, but I did. She made me look a lot better than I do! She is amazing! Thanks Brianna, you are the best! Check out her blog to see them!

The Nursery!!
It is almost done, not quite, there a few things I need to do still but it is coming along, she could come now and I wouldn't be worried. I need to put some pics in the red frames that Brianna made me(they are so cute) but I want them to be pics of the baby so I will have to wait! The bedding turned out way better than I ever expected. Tara is amazing, that is her first time making that, I am so happy with it, thanks sis, love ya!
I am so ready for the baby to come, this last couple of weeks is going to kill me I know it!!! Not really, I go to the doctor today, I hope some good news maybe. I guess I can last 3 1/2 weeks huh. This is really hard for a very unpatient person.
p.s. Went to the doctor today, the baby is doing great, she flipped around so she is in the right position thank heavens. He says anytime now, I really hope that is true. I see him every week now, hopefully next week I am further along in the process, maybe I will be dilated or something, that would be nice.
We have narrowed our names to 2 different names, we have decided to wait until we see her to choose one. We also think that we will just let it be a surprise, we have not told anyone. It was hard enough to come up with them, I don't want to say them and get a bunch of opinions that change my mind . I don't have time to try and make Rhett like anymore names, that is impossible at this point!

I am suffocating!
36 weeks I really can't breathe much anymore, my little one has filled my belly up and I can't breathe, on top of it I have a great cold. But I am getting chlosterphobia( I completely spelled that wrong) really bad, I am freaking a little, I want it out so I can breathe. I love this experience but not breathing is a little much for me, it is scary.
I am also freaking because it is getting really close, I have been watching some movies and techniques to help with the pain, but am I really strong enough to do it? I am questiong myself a lot, and it is not good. We tried to get in some classes but they are booked up until may, so we rented some sweet movies from the library, I swear they haven't made a new one since the 70's, no joke. But they are helping a little, I still am scared. I really want to experience this amazing thing naturally, but I also don't to not be so miserable I not enjoy it. I am just going to keep an open mind and see how it goes, hopefully the superwoman in me comes out, and I am strong enough to do this.
I am so thankful it is getting closer. I hope she comes a little early to be honest 2 weeks would be perfect, I don't want her huge, just healthy. I start the every week appointments now, holy cow, I am going to be a mom in like 30 days, only 3 more saturdays babyless, am I ready for this?
I held a newborn the other day for the first time since I have been pregnant, it really made things feel real, I was thinking to myself, I hardly know how to hold this, how am I going to do it all? I guess it just comes to you, I hope. Rhett was like are you holding her head, telling me to be careful, this is going to be comical to see us together with a tiny baby! I can't wait. I just want to hold her in my arms, and see her look up at me and recognize my voice, i hope she does I talk to her so she will hopefully.
I want to say thanks to all of you that came to my shower, it was so fun, and I got the cutest dang things, I am set for a while, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I am working on thank you cards, but I am a little slow, I found some wedding thank you's yesterday that were filled out but never sent, oops, I am good!

30. We got in a fight cause I didn't want to wear jeans on game day to school, I wanted to wear my warm-ups. I was always getting in trouble for not wearing my skirt to, I can think of 3 of you that would tell me to take my warm ups off!!! I was a brat or the "bi" they called me. This was cass, jocelyn, Laura, and I remember kailee and emily getting mad at me for wearing my pants! Brynn called me the Bi!!!
They may not seem funny to all of you, but they are some really fond memories that I have, I love all of them, they made me laugh today! I could go on all day, but I hope some of you remember these. I have many more, but am saving them. A lot of them are from cheer, and you all know we did some crazy weird things, we have some picture to prove it. I love all my friends so much, and can't wait to see you all tomorrow.

Baby Stuff!
This is the cute pack and play/bassinett that my dad and stepmom got for us. I picked it out up here at usa baby, and love it. They were nice enough to get it for us. Thanks so much!!! I love it! She is going to be so spoiled with all her good grandparents.
Here are a few outfits that I have so far, not even close to all of them but a few, I made a few of the flower clips to go with a couple of them, I hope she has some hair so she can wear them. I love her swimsuit, can't wait to see her chubber legs in it!
This is pretty close to the stroller/car seat we got, the color is just a little different. My Mother-in-law got this for us, I love it. It is so cute, easy to push, small, and the color is neutral enough any blanket will go, and it can work for the next kid, if there is one, boy or girl. Love it! Thanks Colleen. We are so lucky to have so many nice people to get things for us. We really havent had to purchase anything yet. Our crib was given to us by my sister in law, the dresser changing table we got with a gift card from my dad and wife. We are so blessed to have so many nice people in our lives. My mom is always getting new fun stuff for the baby as well. My sister made some really cute burp rags, along with the baby bedding, (check out her blog to see how well she did) I will have to get a picture of those, they are the cutest! We are blessed!

One word.....FLU!!!!!
Hate it, want to kill it. I seriously think that I could hate nothing more than this. I am sure you are all experiencing it in your own way, I hear it is going around. I luckily caught it, even with a flu shot, oh well, hopefully I will be over with it for a couple years now. I was feeling weird wednesday not sick, weird, then that night, it hit me so fast, fever and the rest you know! Anyway I will spare you the details, but I am better, got a little dehydrated, starved my baby for like a day and a half, couldn't even touch food, but better. I am a major slacker on this blogging thing lately, I feel that all my posts are about the baby, or me being sick. I need some fresh new ideas.
Things I am thankful for today:
1. The burst of energy I had today, and was able to pretty much redo and organize, and clean my entire kitchen.
2. My cute dresser for the baby's room Rhett set up for me last night, I can finally put some things away, it is so cute!
3. BEING OVER THE FLU!!
4. All the years I did my grandma's hair that taught me how to do the "old-lady-do" I call it. I have to do about 10 ladies this week since my boss is in Hawaii. I am the best back comber though, thanks to my grandma!!!!
5.The fact that Friday is approaching very fast! I get to see all my friends and family!
6.My mother-in-law for getting me the stroller-carseat combo I wanted, I love it! Thank you Colleen, Love ya!!!
7. PAJAMAS!!!! That is all I have to say about that
8. Finding out my headaches are not from high blood pressure, toxemia, pre-eclampsyia(cant spell that) all the bad stuff, I am super healthy and it is just my hormones, makes sense since I still have acne all over!
9. I am thankful I was able to see my Dad, Step-mom, and little bro and sis last weekend, was fun to see them. Happy 8th B-day guys! Love you all!
10. Valentines day, that is my mom's b-day and I can't wait to celebrate it with her! Happy Birthday mom! I have learned to love that day more and more, it is a great day to tell the person you love how much you love them over and over, without getting annoying, it's the day, say it all you want!
These are the floors, I LOVE LOVE LOVE them! Yay for my handy hubby! They show a lot but they look so pretty! We have started to put our house and lives back together Halelujah!

Update!
Our house is still under construction, my poor husband has been working his little butt off every night after work to try and get it done, it is a much bigger project than he anticipated, I don't think I can describe the amount of dust that was created while sanding, honeslty, it is crazy! Now he is staining, that is also a huge project, you see all the flaws and it takes a while, we have been staying at my mom's and sister in laws, I am running out of clothes, he has been bringing me some things, but I am ready to stay at my house! Thats the update on our dirty house, and let me tell you the smell of the stain is so strong I am worried about getting it out of everything.
I had a doctors appt. yesterday, he can't really explain the headaches that I constantly have, at night they get even worse, and my cheeks get all red and hot, it is weird! I am measuring right on, the due date is still the 29th and I let him tell me how much weight I have gained, holy moly, bad idea. He said from here on out I will probably gain 1 to 2 pounds a week of fluid and stuff, but I have probably gained all the weight on my body. He obviously doesn't know that my appetite has like tripled in the past like 2 weeks. Before I ate so I wouldn't get sick, now I am just hungry a lot, I don't crave anything, I just eat whatever. I have been exercising more though hopefully I won't be a heffer(don't know how to spell that, just don't want to be one) in 8 weeks! I am getting anxious, he is ok with me trying natural to,I know it is my choice and I am going to try, that is the plan as of now, I know I am crazy, but I want to. We will see how it goes though.
I love when people say what they are thankful for, here are a few things I am thankful for at the moment!
1. My husband for making our house so nice and being the hardest worker I know!
2. My family for letting us stay at there house.
3. Maternity styles, I love spandex and loose dresses or tops, they are so comfy at this time. They also disguise the massive rear end I am growing
4. My sister for the updated photo of my quilt today, it made my day, it is beautiful!
5. Having more energy to walk and exercise, and for sore legs for the first time in a while, I know I did something productive.
6.Cheerios, I eat them dry like all day, love them.
7.Mineral makeup for covering up my acne problems, I would die without it.
8.The biggest loser, for entertaing me so much every tuesday, I love that show.
9. I guess the cold, I can wear my wedding ring a lot more than I would if it was hot, my fingers are smaller when they are colder. There is a plus to the cold sometimes.
