Beginning of the Third Trimester

I'll be 29 weeks preggers tomorrow, so I'm beginning my 3rd trimester. Is it just me, or does time seem to slow down as pregnancy progresses? I feel like the first trimester flew by, but now time is virtually standing still. I know baby Fielder will be here before we know it, but 3 months sounds like a long time away. It makes it feel like a shorter amount of time if I say 11 more weeks instead of 3 months. I probably shouldn't be wishing for time to go by faster, as we have so much more to get done before she arrives, but I can't help feeling anxious.

The ladies at church threw us a baby shower last Friday night. It it so great to be a part of a church that makes us feel so welcome and special. We received lots of gifts for our little baby girl. She will definitely be the best dressed infant in Montgomery county. I think she already has a larger wardrobe than I do! Our pastor also gave us a special gift; a rocking chair that he painted for us. We are so grateful for all the support our church has given us throughout this pregnancy and I know they will continue to do the same after baby Fielder arrives. We are truly blessed to be a part of First Christian Church, Conroe.

Baby bump.


In other news, my mom bought our baby crib and brought it up to us when she came for the baby shower. Bryan put it together a few nights ago to make sure it was in good shape (no scratches, missing parts, etc). However, he put it together in the movie room, so we'll have to disassemble it a little to get it into the baby room. Can't wait to get her room finished and get everything put away!! Looking forward to a friend coming over this weekend to help paint something special on the nursery wall too. I'm so glad to have a friend with artistic abilities (since I have none)!! We are also getting ready for our maternity pictures with a great friend that is a photographer on Feb. 27th. We are so lucky to have such talented friends!!

Here is a picture of the crib that we just received...Thanks mom, we love it!!

Below is a picture of the baby bedding we registered for. The coloring in the picture is a little off from what it looks like in reality.

Lots to get done in the next 11 weeks!! Looking forward to spending the summer with my little one.
