On Easter we hit the "100 days left" mark until our baby is due! (That is until her due date which is July 22... If she wanted to come like 2 weeks early on July 8, that would be fine! Her birthday would then be 7/8/9.) It seems like time is moving so fast. This week we bought her car seat and stroller. Sometimes it still feels like a dream that I am pregnant... Until I feel a kick or look in the mirror. I have a baby shower for my family and friends in 2 weeks. My sister and sister-in-law have been doing SO much work to prepare for it! I am so excited to see all the fun and cute things they have planned. They both are wonderful, creative women and mothers. I have seen some things they have done and are planning to do which has got me totally excited! I think this will help things sink in a lot!
I was holding a baby at work last week that was 7 lbs. Reality kind of hit me then, this is the size of a newborn baby! A BABY! Babies in both of our families can be big at birth... like 9 - 10 lbs. big! Looks like our little one (or Mommy!) has a lot of growing to do these last 3 months... or should I say 93 days - but who is keeping track?

Busy and Tired
I feel like all I ever talk about is how busy and tired I am. I probably really am not that busy compared to a lot people who read my blog but I guess the tired part plays more into it than anything! I needed to update my blog but was feeling busy and tired so I hadn't. Well now that I am done with the excuses I will update, but here is a warning it is mostly me rambling and not anything really exciting!
Jared is counting the days until school is out. He has such a crazy schedule I don't know how he can work so much and still get amazing grades! His light at the end of the tunnel is our Anniversary trip in May to see Brian Regan. He will be taking the summer off from school which I think will be a much needed break... plus we will have a lot of adjusting to do as a family!
School for me is going well. -Back to feeling tired and busy- I feel like Wednesdays come too fast every week and another night is spend at school. I feel lost most of the time when our teacher is talking about atoms and all that crap (I don't believe in atoms... seriously some weird science psycho dude made them up)! I think I have the basic knowledge of what she is trying to pound into my brain though. I just pray I can pass the state test!
Our baby has become quite familiar with her little home and loves to explore all of her space. She wiggles and moves so much! I love it! I tease Jared that we should name her Shawn after my favorite Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson. Baby Bear was moving a lot one morning so Jared put his hand on my stomach to feel her move. She did like a back flip in there or something. I think it was her way of giving Daddy a "high five" before he went to school! I'm pretty sure he aced his test that day with the help of Baby Bear!
As far as a name goes for this little one we are still deciding! We keep coming back to one name but we will have to see what she looks like before we know for sure. Also, just an FYI - I plan on NEVER posting what her name will be or is on my blog (unless we go Private). For her little safety and protection we will probably just refer to her in the blogging world as Baby Bear. Please keep this in mind in the weeks and months to come... which means don't ask me to post what names we like or what her name is in the end! Thanks!
