I finally did it!



So, I have been saying for a long time that I wanted to cut my hair. Well I finally did it. I cut about 7 or 8 inches off yesterday! It feels so great and lighter! I think it shocked Keith at first but its growing on him! :) One of the only symptoms I have had from being pregnant is my hair falling out. It has become alot thinner so I had to do something!!! So i cut it! I also thought that you guys would think the picture below was funny, it was taken when we took our youth group bowling about 2 weeks ago!!

Peyton Olivia Reid

As I type this right now, my sister is in the hospital in labor with my niece! I get overwhelmed with emotions thinking of how her life is changing and how God has blessed them with this precious little girl. Jessica went to the hospital this morning at 8am. Her due date was Friday November 7th, since Peyton didn't want to come on her own, the doctors decided to induce her today. I am hoping by the time i get off work Peyton will be here. Most of you know that my sister and I have one of the biggest rivalries of all times! I have always loved my sister more than anything in the world, but I am so excited for her. She taught me alot growing up and I am so excited for little Peyton to get to experience the mommying I got from my sister. She is going to be an amazing mother. I am also super excited that we will get to go through this journey together with Peyton and Noah. I will post pictures of miss Peyton once she arrives.

I went to the Doctor this morning for my sugar test. For you that do not know, this is when you go in and they make you drink this really sugary drink ( i compared it to the liquid you put in hummingbird feeders) Its really thick and just hard to drink. You have to drink the liquid in 5 minutes and they wait one hour and then check your blood sugar level. Good news - I passed!! I also found out I gained another 7 pounds and that little Noah is doing great. His heart beat was 140 today. I am not sure what he has been doing in my tummy lately but hes been moving ALOT!

A Picture of Perfection

I dont have many words to describe the pictures that i am going to post because I look at them and I am at a lost for words. Its just Amazing how God has blessed my family with someone so perfect. I have always loved this little someone in my belly, but last night when Keith and I saw his face, I just couldnt imagine how God could love us so much that he has blessed us this absolutly beautiful perfect baby.

It makes it real!

Yesterday We went to pick up the Nursery furniture with some help from our really good friends Scott, Angie and their baby boy Parker. I was so excited! This was a very important part of this experience for me. I know you guys know me and know that I want his room to be perfect just like it looked in in my head. We still have some things to do like hang pictures on the walls and stuff like that but to me it looks perfect. Last night after Keith and Scott got it all put together, I didn't want to leave. I wanted to stay in there forever. Once we were finished and our friends left, Keith and I sat in there as he read a story to Noah, everything felt right, and it started to feel so real. I couldnt be happier with life. Now the only thing missing is little Noah!

The Crib by its self!
The chester drawers and changing table/dresser.






Keith and Scott trying out the new furniture by changing Parker's Diaper. How many men does it take to change a 4 week old baby's diaper! hehe
