So since our last update we have since found out that we are having a handsome little fella.....but I'm sure most of you know this already. We flew home and had a gender reveal party with family and friends and it was so amazing to find out with everyone we love and care for. :) Then I headed home again in January for my amazing baby shower. I am so so so blessed to have the beautiful (inside and out) women I have in my life. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect shower, right down to the very last detail.
Fast forward and I am 38 wks along. The finish line is VERY near! Everything during our pregnancy has been pretty blissful (knock on wood!!). I am still walking at least 5-6 days a wk, but am definitely ready for a faster pace of life......aka running. But in due time. I am still feeling very good and want baby Mason to bake as long as he needs. We have family & friends starting to fly in at the end of this week to await his arrival. We couldn't be more excited!!! Although I am feeling a little sad knowing he won't be inside me anymore. I have really really enjoyed pregnancy and LOVE LOVE LOVE the feeling of him, knowing he is safe and sound in there. But I also know it will be much sweeter to have him in my arms and watch him grow.
Now that I am on maternity leave and have to admit, BORED!!! So I am occupying my time by baking and cooking and freezing lots of dinners in preparation for when Bruce and I become walking zombies and don't have the energy to cook or bake for ourselves. Masons all set and ready to go, so that's a good feeling. Now we browns....WAIT!!! Wish us luck and keeps us in your prayers for a fast and healthy birth!!!! Will try and update as soon as we can!
Love,
Nichole, Bruce, baby Mason, and Pudge
