JGB...

Well we got some good news at the appointment last week and it looks like sweet little Jack will be making his debut a little sooner than we thought. We are scheduled to be induced on May 18th unless he decides to visit sooner. We are so excited and I cannot believe that in less than a month we will meet this wonderful little guy.

Ok so I am sorry that I have been so sparce with the posts, but I will try to do better :) It is just crazy around here these days but I have a feeling that things are about to get a little crazier. Jackie and I are so excited and are starting to prepare more and more for his arrival. We have also finally decided on baby Bost's (known as BB to many) name and he will be Jack Garner Bost. We are extremely excited about this name because he will have such a strong family name :) Jack as many of you can probably guess is for Jackie (husband) and Jackie (mom) and Jackie's (husband) grandfather. Garner is Granny's maiden name. We feel that he will have great roots and we could not be more thrilled with that idea. I will try to be better at posting and for sure will let you know when/if we find out any new details :)

Big Boy Jack...






The Doctor's appointment went well yesterday and our sweet little Jack is still a big boy! They told us he weighs about 5 pounds now and is measuring about 2 weeks ahead. We are getting so ready to meet him!!!



How funny are these pictures. One looks like "oh no, not more pictures" and then of course when he sticks his tongue out at you, you get the picture :) haha. Just wanted to post the latest and will try to put more soon. Hope that everyone has a happy Easter and enjoys this special time of year.

Next Doctor's visit...

As the weeks are going by faster and faster, we are starting to get more and more excited about meeting our sweet little baby boy. We go tomorrow for the 32 week ultrasound and appointment and I cannot wait to get to see him again. We are going to try to get a better face shot this time since he had his feet in his face the entire 4d. I would love to see those sweet feet again though and we will just have to see how cooperative he will be. We feel so blessed to be on this wonderful ride and it seems like just yesterday that we were telling the news. I will post a new picture if we get a good one tomorrow...hope that everyone is having a great week!

Too Cute Not to Post....

Baby Boy's first photo shoot :)




Well we went for the 4d sonogram and can I just say that it was so amazing. I really cannot believe how much detail there is when you are watching it. Baby Bost was NOT cooperative at first but we did not care...we were enthralled with watching whatever he was doing. Since unfortunately my first glucose test did not turn out so well, on Monday, during the 4d, I was also running back and forth to the nurse to get my sugar tested during the 3 hour glucose test...ugh. But that all turned out to be fine - what a blessing because for those of you who know me it would have been a TOUGH 11 weeks with a special sugar-free diet...but i could have done it :)



So when I got back from getting my finger stuck, he decided that he wanted to be a sweet boy and show us his flexibility. He was playing with his feet for almost the entire hour and we were getting so tickled at him pulling his feet up to his face. Jackie says that he taught him how to do that...what a proud daddy he was :) I really cannot wait to meet this little man. How about those little cheeks? We are so in love already and feel like we know him just a little bit more now!

Baby Blue...




Progress was made this weekend :) It is so funny to me that the weekend that we actually painted the nursery, everyone seemed to ask, "so when are you going to pick a paint color?" We narrowed down our choices from 4 colors, or shades of blue if you will, and we are really happy with the way that it turned out. We started on the nursery on Friday night with the primer and then finished up on Sunday with the finale! Taping was the hardest part but I took care of the low areas and Jackie got the high spots. By the way, if you are ever trying to paint over a darker color with a lighter one, ask the paint people to tint your primer that you use...saved us one coat at least :)

Today I had another appointment and he is getting bigger and bigger, and evidently the scales say the same about me - haha. I was excited to hear that sweet heartbeat again and it was around 150 today...he was moving around like a wild child the whole time she was trying to listen but I thought that it was funny to watch! We are going on Monday for the 4d sonogram and I am so excited. I have been looking forward to this since we found out we were expecting. Get this though, you have to take a blank VHS tape to record the movement on the sonogram but a blank dvd or cd will work for still pictures...we don't even have a VHS player. Jackie was joking saying he was going to have to go buy one so we could watch the video...my parents have one so we will have to borrow it! Pictures of baby boy will be up as soon as we can get them on here next week - SO EXCITING!!!

Winter Wonderland???




So the doctor's appointment went well last week. For those of you who go by the rule of "the higher the heartbeat the more likely it is a girl"...well we are trying to prove that wrong I suppose because baby bost hasn't dropped below 148 and is usually in the 150s. It is still the most amazing sound in the world to hear that sweet little heartbeat. I am sure that friends with kids have told us this, but it is just still so incredible to hear that noise. For the next appointment I have to do the glucose test :( ughh...but then on the 8th we get to do the 4d sonogram. I am so excited to see how much bigger he has gotten.




So how about this snow in MISSISSIPPI? How exciting to be seeing white more than once in the past 3 months. This time around we have not taken Lulu out to play in it but she went on her own before heading in the house covered in flakes...she loves it. I hope that everyone has a great weekend!
