Eli at 34 Weeks, 4 Days!



Here's my boy at 5 weeks before his estimated arrival! Scott and I went to have an ultrasound done on Tuesday, because I was measuring big. They found that I have a little bit more amniotic fluid, but it is nothing to be concerned about. The kicker is...Eli is already weighing in at 6 pounds 4 ounces!! He is in the 88th percentile for babies that are 34 weeks! They are estimating him to be about 9 pounds, which was no shocker to me!! My dad was over 9 pounds and my grandpa was 12 pounds!! The technician kept going on about how much he looks like me with his chubby cheeks and big lips. When we were watching him it looked like he was blowing kisses to us! We were both so excited to see his face and are even more excited to hold him in a few weeks. I just can't believe this journey is almost over and I will have my sweet baby in about 5 more weeks!

Here's my sweet boy at 16 weeks. I know he has gotten bigger since then with all the moving and kicks. Mom thinks he has the sweetest profile and I couldn't agree more!!

21 weeks pregnant!
Here is a picture of my growing belly! I haven't really felt big until now, but I couldn't be happier! Eli is kicking and growing everyday. I feel like he might be working on a dance routine to break out when he's born! He is an active baby, and I love feeling his little, love kicks and punches!!

Here's my hubby Scott getting ready to paint the baby's room. We decided on a light green to go with his bedding. Being the animal lover that I am, I decided on a bedding suit that has dogs, pigs, cows, and just about every cute animal there is! I can't wait to get his room ready to go!

This is what the little dude's nursery is going to look like. I told you it was full of fuzzy, wuzzy baby animals of all sorts! My friend Kyrie is a fantastic artist, so we are going to try to figure out how she can add a special "touch" to Eli's room!

On Mother's Day Eli and mommy got a lot of cute surprises! I especially love the I love Mommy hat and socks!
