The Little Man in My Tummy

So I went to the doctor Friday and the doctor said that I was starting to dilate and that the baby's head was down in position. So basically I could go into labor today or it could be a couple of weeks...I guess when Nikko is ready.

I am sure ready - I have been have Braxton Hicks contractions all day today along with a few real contractions (I think). I have never had them, so it is hard to say if they are a contraction or not. How will I really know when they are REAL contractions. Guess we will just wait and see.

I finally got most of the Nursery organized from all of the gifts everyone gave us. I have everything ready to put in my bag to take to the hospital...just need to update my ipod with some new music I downloaded.

Paabs put together the play pen and all that is left for him to do is to assemble the cradle that my Dad made us when it arrives and to put the car seat in my car.

I know that Nikko will come when he is ready...I am 37 weeks - so I am hoping sooner than later - everyone says the last few weeks are the hardest. I even had to have my sister paint my toenails on Saturday - What a WONDERFUL sister :) I figure my toes should at least be pretty.

We will keep you posted and let you know how are progress is!!

Nikko's Baby Shower 09.27.08

We had Nikko's baby shower last Saturday...We have to give a big shout out to all my sisters, my brother-in-law, Sarah and my parents for putting together a wonderful day! We also want to thank all of our friends for sharing this special day with us.

Kirstin and Ross' house was the best setting and was full of love for me, Paabs, and Nikko. We were surrounded by our friends and family. I was very happy that the Benson's were able to come down from Boise to share this day too!

Nikko is loaded with presents - And I am sure there are many many more to follow. Here is a slide show of the big event!

There are also a few pictures of the start of Nikko's Room...More to come soon!!
