bobble head dolls are the coolest.....

Jennifer and I got another peek at Bryson on Friday. At 37 weeks, our little man weighs in at 7lbs 7ozs!! His arms and legs are measuring at 37 weeks, BUT thanks to his daddy, Bryson's head is a little on the large side. Sorry, buddy! I wouldn't wish this bobble head syndrome on anyone, especially you! You'll just be as smart or smarter than me. Probably smarter! See you soon, little-big man.

We are so close to finally meeting him! Thanks to all of you for your prayers.

Another week bites the dust

Well another week has come and gone and we are one week closer to meeting this little guy. It's unbelievable how fast the time has flown. People keep telling me the last few weeks drag by so slow but it's just the opposite for me. They have been zooming past! I finally have the nursery organized and everything is put away and ready to go.

As of this past Friday I have not dilated any, but the baby's head is down and ready to go so that's good news! Now we just wait. I go again this Friday and they will also be doing an ultrasound to see how big this guy is. I'm curious to know if we've got a hefty baby!

I wanted to share some maternity pictures we had taken by our friend Ashley Hutto-Gaskins. I just picked a few of my favorites to share. When the pictures of Jeffrey and I were taken, it was an extremely muggy/humid day and we were miserable! We weren't to happy with our appearances that day but what can ya do? That's SC weather for you!

That's all for now! We'll keep you posted!

Love,

Jennifer

Hand over the tissues...

So we are now coming into my 35th week of pregnancy which means there are only 5 weeks left until this little guy gets here. Did you hear me? I said 5 WEEKS! I don't think anyone is as freaked out as I am about this! I am so excited to meet my child, but I am terrified at the same time. I have so many emotions running through me all at once that it is absolutely insane. I've never been such a basket case in all of my life. I find myself crying all the time...which can be embarrassing at times when this happens in public places. Fortunately, everyone tells me this is normal so I feel better about that! I feel like time is going by SO fast and I feel like even after all these months of preparation...I'm just not ready! (Although I'll probably be singing a different tune here in a few weeks when I grow increasingly uncomfortable.)

Other than me freaking out, we are all doing very well. Bryson is active as ever and gets the hiccups at least once a day. We have fun playing "name that body part" as he moves around and gets situated. I think most of the time he likes to stick his little rear end up for us to see. Seems like he's already a little jokester like his daddy. :)

We definitely have some very generous friends and family because the amount of stuff this child has already brought in is insane. His little nursery is slammed full of stuff and now we just have to figure out where to put it all! I'm so thankful for every one's generosity. I can't tell you how touching it is to know that so many people care about us and this baby. It really and truly means the world to us. Thank you!

Please continue to pray for us and little Bryson as we enter into these final weeks. It's definitely going to be a crazy ride!!!

time keeps on slippin slippin slippin....

It's hard to believe that Bryson will be here so soon. It seems like only a few short weeks ago that we found out Jennifer was pregnant. Time flies when you're having fun! Right? I'm having a blast and he isn't even here yet!

Our family and friends have hosted a couple baby showers for Jennifer. We are so thankful for all of you! Bryson's nursery is full of things that we'll need to care for him properly. Keep us and the little dude in your prayers. Only a few short weeks left!!!!!
