Drama..

Well, we've only been at Grandma's for not even 3 weeks and we're moving out. My older brother who is 21 years old still lives there with her and causes nothing but stress for everyone. I can't be around that, and I don't want to be. So we're leaving to Devin's parents' house and we are definitely happy about that. We will have our own room and everything. I can finally get all ready for Brenton to arrive in a stress-free home! We will be leaving tonight, thank God.

Ugh.. I wish my family would just grow up.

It's finally done..!

Yay! The baby shower is finally over with. Now I can actually start buying things that I know for sure I need. I'm starting to feel like I'm accomplishing something now :)

Well, here's how things went.

Woke up around 9:30am, took a shower, went to McD's for breakfast (yum), picked up the balloons, went to the place to decorate, came home & got ready, blah blah blah. I invited about 30 people, I believe. I think between 20 & 30 showed up. A lot of them did tell me they had gotten called into work, which whatever I was fine with not having everyone show up. I hate being the center of attention, which my Grandma made sure I was. The party started a little after 4. We played games, then ate, then gifts. We had such good food. Ham, scalloped potatoes, beans, corn, green beans, salad, and buns. I made out good for gifts, I think. I always planned on buying everything myself, so I was surprised.

Gifts: Rain Forest Pack N Play, Bouncer, Swing, Car Mirror, and Blanket.
A lot of other soft blankets, 3 packs of diapers (140 newborn), baby wipes, baby wipe travel case, a lot of cute outfits, 3 onsies, and some other nice cute things. I can't remember everything, but I will post pictures that I took of everything soon :)

32 Week U/S

Went for my 32 week ultrasound today. The tech was very nice, and so we got some really great pictures. I'm still measuring 4 days ahead, like I've always been, but it's okay. She said my cervix is still shut tight, looks fine, nothing wrong there. My fluid levels are great, which I was kind of surprised because I haven't been drinking things I should be drinking; whoops! He is 4lbs 10oz, so he's getting nice and big. His heart rate is 135bpm, which is all good too. It was so cute watching him drink his fluid and play with his lips. When she first started the exam she showed us his bladder, then towards the end to get more pictures, she scans over his bladder again and it was a lot fuller and she said "I don't know who's going to pee first, you or him." It was pretty funny :) The tech showed us his hands which were right up by his nose, so we called him a nose picker! I was nervous, as I always am when it comes to ultrasounds and doctor appointments. I'm always worried their going to find something wrong, but each time they tell me he's just perfect :) Maybe I should stop worrying so much, lol.

Anyway, I'll post some pictures that we got
