Labor Day

It is already Labor Day Weekend! Where has the time gone?! Not too much planned for the weekend. Tom will be going to a Mud Run Saturday through Sunday. I will probably be heading out Saturday evening sometime. We will stay in the camper with a couple friends of ours. Tom's Mom will be taking the dogs for us! This is the Mud Run we look forward to every year. OUr stay is going to be a bit shorter than usual...next year we will have to make up for it! It is from Friday through Monday so it gets to be a LONG weekend! I will just be video taping on the side lines this year. It is still fun to go and watch! Saturday is also the day my cousin Paul gets married. So heading to that in St. Cloud for the day. I guess that is all. Have a safe and Happy Labor Day everyone!

32 weeks, baby shower, birthday!!

Well I had my 32 week check up yesterday! Everything is where it is supposed to be. I gained 5 pounds in 2 weeks!!! I have now gained a whopping 28 pounds! Amazing, huh?! It is mostly all in my belly though...does that mean after he is born it will all be gone?! Wishful thinking, right?! His heart beat was 148-15o, his head is down, and he loves doing somersaults in mommy's belly! I haven't experienced the whole kicking thing yet, but he does move A LOT! A few more weeks and I am sure all I will feel is the punching and kicking! 8 more weeks and hopefully he will be here...or close to here! My ear has kind of been bothering me so I had the doc check it out. You will never guess what he found?! A dog hair, yes a dog hair, on my ear drum! Thanks to Tom's wonderful black lab, Chevy! He tried to flush it out, then tried to dig it out...no luck. So I now have a sore ear from all of that and still the hair in my ear! Hopefully it will just work its way out! I never knew something as small as a dog hair would drive me that crazy! I thought I had an ear infection!!

I had the baby shower on Sunday(8/24). 51 people showed up with LOTS of presents! I can not believe how much stuff we got. It is truly amazing. I didn't get to talk to everyone as much as I liked, but I was trying to say hello to everyone! So, sorry if I missed you or didn't talk to you very long! Thank you all so much for everything! We are offically ready for the baby to be here! His room is all set up and there are actually things in there! I just love going through the clothes. They are so tiny and cute! Everything is a lot less stressful now. Now I can relax a bit...I am sure Tom is thankful for that!

Yesterday I turned a whole year older...I am the big 2-3 now! Where has the time gone?! Tom made me dinner...it was very yummy! Mom, Grams Rogers, Shannon, Bryce, and Ashton brought over cake and ice cream. Mom made my favorite...yellow cake with HOMEMADE chocolate frosting! So it was a great day. Thanks to all of you who wished me a Happy Birthday!

Well that is it for now!

Welcome!

Well I figured I could start this blog before the baby is here! This way once he is here I can update everyone with how he is doing and some updated photos! I am not really that good with these things, but will try my hardest to become the "blogger"! Nothing too new right now. I have a check up tomorrow to see how everything is going. 8 weeks to go and hopefully he will be in our arms! Hope all is well with everyone!
