Mommy had a great time at the baby shower that three of her friends (Sarah, Katie, and Jen) hosted for her on 9/22! And, she got lots of GREAT things for me : ) Thanks to everyone that came or sent gifts...mommy and I both appreciate it greatly!
Mommy had some diapers made for me that will fit when I am first born. She even had one done in race car fabric! The woman who made them for me even made me a diaper cover with a stamp on the butt for FREE. Mommy is so excited to be able to use them!!
Grandma and Grandpa Bryant helped mommy finish putting together the changing table/dresser and hanging the valences. Mommy also put together my bookcase and put some of her childhood books, new books from both the grandparents, and a few toys on the shelves. Grandma and Grandpa Bryant also found the fun piggy bank. The nursery is almost complete...all that's left is the wall art and the glider!
Grandma and Grandpa Bryant came down to celebrate mommy's birthday and see me in 3D!! They were able to see me yawn, swallow, "smile", frown, stretch, give the thumbs up, and even "pick my nose". You could even count all of my fingers and toes. They were also excited to see that I was still a girl!!
Grandma and Grandpa O'Neill have been hard at work making the wall art for my room. So far they have done the wings of a large ladybug, a couple small ladybugs, and two butterflies! See how gorgeous they look?!!
Well, mommy has officially made it to the third trimester!!! Sometimes she wonders whether her belly is actually holding a basketball and not a baby though. She can't believe that her due date is in only 12 more weeks and that I could actually even be here before that!!
Well, mommy made her first "Riley-related" trip to L&D on 8/13/07. Everything was fine, but mommy got the opportunity to listen to my kicks, punches, squirms, hiccups, and heart beat on the fetal monitor for a couple hours. Don't worry, I'm not coming out yet...I'm still plenty comfortable in here!
