Count down is on!

Profile at 37-38 weeks pregnant...

Adeline is due in 8 days and we just can't wait!!!

Everything is ready...the car seat is in the car, hospital bags are packed (Johnny is happy that he gets to share a bag with Adeline), rice socks made, physioball ready to go, all tiny clothes washed and folded, sheets fresh in the crib, diaper bag packed, and our doula is on call!

I have been having contractions on and off--but nothing timeable or painful. Last week at my 38 week visit, I learned I was 1 cm dilated and 70% effaced. Hopefully I will be even further tomorrow at my 39 week visit.

Last week, Johnny got a red ribbon (2nd place!!!) in the specialty beer category for homebrewing at the Kentucky State Fair for his Mocha Java Porter!!! The latest beer he brewed was a Cascadian Dark Ale--a new style which is actually a dark IPA.

Busy Busy

Last Friday night at the Phish show in Deer Creek...Adeline and I danced for the first couple of songs, but then had to sit and groove because I started having so many contractions....Johnny was worried I was going to have her there:) It was exhausting but worth it....we were emotionally drained (Grandad passed away on Aug 9th and the funeral had been earlier that day).

So so happy to have gotten to visit with Diane, Jake, and Savannah!!! They were in town for Diane's family reunion and I got to swing by the Wuerth's farm on Thursday night (Aug 4th) for a quick visit. Savannah is so precious and tiny...I can't believe I will have one of these things in 2 weeks!!!!!

The tasty cake from the Brinkworth's shower for me and Adeline:)

Megan and Ella's Visit to Lanesville

Megan and Ella came to visit July 21-25th. We had a fabulous time!!

Visiting up in Cincinnati

Mom, Renee, and Megan had a baby shower for Adeline and me on July 24th. There were lots of little tots running around...in the picture below Grandpa Steve gave a puppet show...Ella wasn't sure what to think.

I love my sisters:)

32 weeks preggo in this pic...we went to El Mundo the night this photo was taken and enjoyed a fabulous meal outside...it was SOOOO good--Adeline loves ethnic and Mexican food just like me:)

Here I am 33 weeks pregnant and we were celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary.

Johnny's parents gave us the most beautiful flowers and vase for our anniversary:)

Johnny and me enjoying the best filet mignon you can get in Louisville (we think anyways) at Pat's Steakhouse. They just so happened to play Ella Fitzgerald's "At Last," which was our first dance as husband and wife, as they brought out our complimentary dessert...so romantic =)
