Baby's Room

We finally got the baby's room put together for the most part. It's a pretty small room but luckily we were able to get everything to fit and I think it turned out cute. If you click on the link below you can view some more photo's.

32 weeks and counting...


Not much has changed here except the size of my belly! The baby has been very active and now that it’s bigger the movements and kicks/punches are much stronger. Ryan and I had our childbirth preparation class all day last Saturday. We learned lots of good information although I’m not sure if it made me feel better or more nervous for what’s to come :). We did get a tour of the hospital though which was nice and I really enjoyed the stations during our class because Ryan got to practice all the massage techniques on me to help relieve pain so that was fun. My team at work threw me a surprise baby shower on Wednesday which was fun and we got some really great gifts for Baby Springer including some very cute personalized onesies. My mom and sister came down to visit this weekend and we were able to get a good chunk of our Christmas shopping done. I had a dr’s appt today and everything looks good. She said I was measuring on the big side of normal which was fine and that that baby’s head is down however it probably won’t be in the exact position until closer to 36 weeks. Ryan and I have our Newborn care class next week. I’m looking forward to that and seeing Ryan put on a diaper for the first time!

Grandma Reynolds wins Senate seat!

We now have a senator in the family! My mom won her election last night and in January will be starting her first term as senator. We are so excited and proud for her. Ryan and I drove up to Iowa last night to spend the night with her and the rest of my family. It was a fun and intense night as we waited for all of the numbers to come in. Finally a little before 12 they declared her the winner!!
