Updates on Our Life!

The past week has been so busy! I am doing all I can to keep up! I really don't want to get behind on any of Riley's stuff, like this blog or her journal or her calendar, all the things I have been doing for her.

That being said, I wanted to make sure to do a post here before the holidays!

In the past week we have: scheduled maternity photos, had my 28-29 week doctor visit, had a day out with Jordan's grandparents, began to re-open communication with his parents and sister, attended a party with my old friends from chorus, and attended Savannah's first chorus performance.

It might not sound like a lot, but when you are pregnant and tired, a few events can feel like a marathon or a mountain climb!

The week before last we did some fun things too, like attending the elementary school carnival with Savannah.  We took Dalton with us too and the kids really had a fun time.

My maternity photos are scheduled for December 6th.  I am very excited about these pictures! I'm getting really big now and rounding out and time is running out for my pregnancy! We are so anxious to hold our baby girl.

At my last appointment I learned that I suddenly have low iron, so I'm on iron tablets now, and there's a good chance that I will be induced a week early to ensure the doctor I have requested for delivery.  If this happens it means we will be induced January 27th or 28th, which is creepy because Jordan has been saying for months that we would have her on the 27th...

After my appointment this past Tuesday, Jordan's grandparents met us for lunch.  It was really nice to see them after a few months and we had a great afternoon.  They brought a ton of clothes for Riley and his parents sent us a miniature pack-n-play bassinet for her and a good supply of bathing products.  We have since been communicating with his mom again, which is a big step after all of the mess that happened between us.

Last night was the talent show at my old high school.  They do one every year, and this year my sister got to be in it! It was her first performance with the elementary chorus and it was adorable! Before the show, we got to attend a really special party for all of the graduated students.  It was so great to see my friends again and hold their babies and and hear about how they are all doing and it just really made me happy to know that distance and time cannot break true friendship.


Life isn't slowing down anytime soon.  Tomorrow we are going to a baby shower for a little angel who is due to arrive just two days before our sweet girl.  After that it will be time to start preparing for Thanksgiving and then Christmas already.  I can't believe how fast time is flying by and that in about 10 weeks we will have a baby.


I can't leave a post without a celebrity update, so this one is..... Hayden Panitierre is pregnant.  Apparently WAY pregnant, and I missed the memo earlier.  Haha.


Until I find my way back to the laptop!
