Halloween Party at Preschool

Savannah had her Halloween party/costume parade this past week at school. Daddy attended the party since I am still home recovering from my c-section. Daddy said she had a wonderful time! Here are a few pictures he took.

Cameron's First Bath

We gave Cameron his first bath on Sunday. As you can see, he was not happy about this. However, his 2nd bath he seemed to enjoy much more (we don't have pictures of this one though). Savannah started to help but then lost interest. The best part was that he decided to squirt himself and daddy right in the middle of it. We are learning lots of little lessons about little boys and their squirts : )

Big Sister's Love!

Savannah LOVES her new baby brother. Here are a few pictures I caught of her loving on him. So sweet!

Baby Cameron is here!

Savannah seeing her baby brother for the first time!

Cameron was born on Tuesday Oct. 20 at 7:30am. I started having contractions Tuesday morning about 2:00am. At 5:15am my water broke and we headed to the hospital. He was born via c-section at 7:30am. Things went very smoothly and wonderfully. Especially, compared to my experience with having my Savannah. We are home now and I am feeling pretty good, just sore. Savannah was very excited to get to see her new baby brother. We are all so in love with our newest blessing!

Baby Shower

I must be very excited by the look on my face : )

My wonderful friends Amy and Rebecca threw me a baby shower. It was very nice to get together with friends and family one last time before the arrival of our newest little man! I got a lot of adorable little boy outfits!! Can't wait to see Cameron in them!

Happy Birthday Mom!

We celebrated my mom's birthday today with the family. It was very nice! We all had a great time. The girls had adorable matching outfits to wear for the event. However, Savannah fell asleep for over an hour on the way back from Columbia, SC with Nana and Pawpaw and had an accident. Therefore, we had to change her clothes : ( Oh well! They still looked cute!

38 weeks and Waiting

I am now 38 weeks pregnant. We are still waiting on baby Cameron to make his appearance. Savannah was born at 37 weeks...so making it to 38 feels like eternity! I feel and look HUGE!! At least we are down to 10 days until my c-section.

Baby Update

So...I have noticed that I never seem to blog about this pregnancy or what is going on with the development of baby Cameron. Guess that's what happens to the 2nd child : ) Anyway, I am almost at the finish line. I will be 37 weeks this Sunday. 37 weeks is when little Savannah decided to arrive. We finally have everything ready for his arrival. Emotionally, not sure I am quite ready, but physically I am done! I am feeling pretty miserable these days! I am trying to keep my days busy so that they will go faster, but somehow they still seem to drag on. If I do not go into labor before hand, my scheduled c-section date is Wednesday Oct. 28 at 12:30pm. At least I know there is no more than 2 1/2 weeks left. Because of the swine flu, there have been changes to the visitation rules at our local hospital. Now, no one under the age of 18 is allowed anywhere in the hospital as a visitor. Therefore, Savannah will not be able to meet her little brother until I am discharged and return home. I was a little, no, a lot, upset about this at first. However, now I understand and agree with the new rules and am prepared to sleep and spend a little one on one time with daddy and Cameron while recovering in the hospital. Well, hopefully, I will be back on here soon with some exciting news of his little arrival. Until then.....

We had a surprise party for my mom's 50th birthday. I think we pulled it off well. She was definitely surprised! We had a wonderful turn out of family and friends. We had a wonderful dinner, delicious cake, and a great slide show of photos of my mom growing up. Happy Early Birthday mom! Hope you enjoyed your party!! We love you!
