Quite the exciting week. I was off work per my doctor on Tuesday due to contractions and was released this afternoon to return to work on a reduced schedule. She also gave me some drugs to help keep the contractions at a minimum. Apparenlty I'm having false labor, which can be slowed/stopped when I take this medication. If they continue once I've taken the meds, it is real labor. Yikes! We'll see if that helps keep the contractions at a minimum. I am also dilated to 1cm too.
A quick update on the baby. She is about 4 3/4 pounds this week. Apparently the same weight as an average cantaloupe. FINALLY a fruit that I actually eat. Which reminds me, I should by one. That sounds kind of good.
I have quite a few pictures to post this week. My sister sent me the pictures of my shower in Roseburg. Here are some of them.
Quilt, courtesy of my mom. Beautiful!
Advice box, courtesy of crafty Dena. It matches the babies room!
'Shower Cake' that my sister made. So cute! Tasted delish too.
I also stuck with my "Sprockets" Theme this week for my pictures. Again, Aaron did my 'photo shoot' just before I left for physical therapy. I always wear my yoga pants to PT and then change before I go to work. I also went for a bare belly shot this week. Gutsy, I know...
I also couldn't resist adding this picture of Oreo. She LOVES catnip so Aaron took out the little container of catnip for her to enjoy. Before he could get some of it out, she swiped it out of his hand and all over the kitchen floor and then proceeded to roll around in it and lick it off the floor. I swear, that stuff is like kitty crack! I think Oreo may need to join a 12 step program.
That's it for now folks. Let me know what you think of the pictures in this weeks post. I decided to post them a little smaller than the other weeks. Are they too small? Whatcha think?

I love your belly pic. You don't have stretch marks! Go Jamie. The Lord does answer prayer!
I think the pics are a little small. The one of you and your sister is hard to really see detail. Nonetheless, you are beautiful mamma!
No worries about me being sad. It's just saying good-bye to my dreams and hello to God's plan for me. Which is always better than what I had in mind.
I already check out Dena's blog. She's awesome!
I did reply and I'm sad you didn't get it. I was very witty! I also mentioned that our friend Steph is expecting in November. :) Pregnant ladies unite!
