Last post as a pregnant woman.

Well all this is my last post as a pregnant woman, my next post will be as a mommy to a new baby boy or girl!!! Thought I would add one more photo of what I look like right before I bust. Okay, so maybe bust is not the right word. I know lots of woman that have been more uncomfortable than I have, but come on give me a break. It is summer here and I am over due, so just a little sympathy please.

Mike and I go in tonight to start being induced. Hopefully this little person comes out by tomorrow, since all the family will be in for the long weekend! I must say I am nervous, but not for the delivery, but for the after care. Sure I baby sat in high school and college, but is that enough training? I always got to give the baby back, now I am the one they give the baby back to. Thank goodness mom will be here for two weeks. I think Mike also has an upper hand being the oldest of six. I think he might have been around a baby or two. Okay enough rambling, enjoy the new pic and I can not wait to post pictures of the baby!!!

Movie Night

This Friday was movie night with Pat, Amber and Lady! We rented Wild Hogs and hung out eating home made brownies. (Thanks Amber) I know our movie night can not rival camping (Tom and Monique) but we still had fun hanging out and thinking up ways to get this baby out. Amber suggested jumping jacks, but I was too full to give it a try. Maybe later. Oh well, the doggies played and the adults had fun. Can't wait until we have a baby distracting us and making us pause the movie instead of me having to pee every 10 minutes.

Hope you like the pictures. They were taken with our new camera. Watch out this can be addictive to take random pics!!!

TTFN, We will try for some more fun later.

Baby Shower, July 21, 2007

Well all the pictures are finally here and everyone who didn't make it in can now see what a great time they missed. After seeing the wonderful outcome of the party I actually think this baby might be a little spoiled. Thank goodness Grandma and Meme both agree you can not spoil a baby. Oh for those of you who don't know who is being called what, my mom is Grandma, she picked that because she says it is about time she has someone to call her Grandma and Mike's mom Lynn is Meme (said with French accent), after her wonderful grandmother. What else to say...oh a special thanks to my Aunt Kay and her wonderful friends who threw an unbeatable baby shower. It was the most perfect theme and set up. Thanks also to Lindsey for the games that made everyone laugh and to all of my family and friends that traveled in from around the surrounding states. Yall must be crazy to come that far for little O' me, but I love you guys. Thanks!!!

Now for the pictures, hope you enjoy.

House!

Okay so here are the details of our house. We are sort of out in the country. We can at least see the stars at night!!! The dogs love running around in the yard and the house. I think that since we moved from a little 1114 sq. foot house to this almost 2500 sq. foot house Mike and I have walked a million miles just going between the rooms. It has taken a month, but I am slowly getting acquainted where things are at, of course that is if Mike would stop rearranging things. I think he is nesting not me.

Today we did get in the last bit of furniture for the living room, so things will be perfect for the baby shower on Saturday!!!

Formal Dinning Room

Guest Bathroom

Guest Room

Baby's Room (Bella and Beau don't know it is not for them yet)

Breakfast Nook

Living Room before all the furniture has arrived. I promise to post more house pictures when I have time and finish taking pictures of our finished rooms.

Day one of blogging.

Okay we decided to join the California Shelby's in keeping a blog online, so here we go.

Recap:

Mike and I have been in our new house for a little over a month. Most everything is done that we can do right now. Pat Shelby, our professional painter, has finished painting every wall in the house with what ever wild color I have picked out. Mike has hung all the heavy pictures and Amber has helped me decorate and tell Mike where to hang the pictures. I am so glad, we talked them into moving to Texas...shoot did I say that, I mean I am so glad they moved down on their own free will. I love having them close.

Our Real First House!

Right now I am currently 35 weeks pregnant and done with it all. We just went to the doctor on Monday and she says that I am not done and I should hold out till about 40 weeks. She is crazy, what exactly does a doctor know about pregnancy and how fat and tired I feel. Trust me I am done, but if I must do what is best for little baby Shelby I will. Mike you owe me ;-)

Oh by the way, no for those of you that don't know, no Mike and I do not know whether we are having a boy or a girl and no we have all ready waiting this long we are not going to find out. Sorry mom.
