Dr Update

I saw my doctor today and she gave me some good news... I'm dilated! Yay! I've been having strong contractions since Monday and it's nice to know I'm getting results from them. They are definitely not the most comfortable things!! After checking me, she's confident that I will have this baby before my induction date. That was nice to hear, but I'm getting my hopes up. I'm just going to take it one day at a time. The good news is that there is an end in sight... 3 weeks and counting!!



Bri and I decided on a name for our boy a long time ago and we've been telling family. So with 3 weeks left to go (at most), I think it's time to share that with you! His name shall be....

Beckham Brooks Abbott

No, we are not die hard David Beckham fans or soccer fans, but we love the name Beck. As for Brooks, that is my sister's middle name. She's been such a big part of my life and been there for me, that I thought it was fitting to incorporate her somehow. I think that it's a very strong name and I'm sure it will suit him!! There is going to be another BA in the world...everyone better watch out! haha.

Since we've been telling family, he already has a couple nicknames.... We call him Becks and Katie (my sister in law) calls him Hammie. I love it! haha! I'm sure he'll pick up many more as time passes.

Hello baby girl

Let's Catch Ya Up...

Sooo much has happened since my last post... Where to begin?

Well... My sister had her baby! Indie Lea Voos came into the world and she is so precious! Absolutely perfect and beautiful. I can't wait to watch her grow and experience life. I've got lots of pictures with the AMAZING new camera GT and Ruth got us, but have yet to upload the pics. I will do that asap! The reason I have yet to upload the pics is because our house got struck by lighting the weekend Indie came into the world. So the lighting fried EVERYTHING in our house....It's been kinda crazy around here lately trying to fix everything and replace it. I finally got my computer back today and it made me realize how much I missed it!!

On a sad note, Brian's grandmother, Gran Gran passed since my last post. We just had her funeral last weekend. It was the most amazing funeral I've been to. Not only did everyone mourn her death, but it was more of a celebration. I don't think I've cried and laughed so much at a funeral. Brian's family is so amazing..honestly! Everyone came together to celebrate her life and I learned so many things about her that I didn't know. I realized that she is the reason why that family is so talented, caring, loving, and rare. She was one amazing lady and was loved by MANY people. We miss her soo much and know she'll be watching over all of us. We love you Gran Gran!

On a happier note, my doctor set my induce date! YAY! The date is August 22, 2010. Which means he will probably be born on August 23rd, which is our 2 year wedding anniversary! What a perfect gift! It's crazy to think that we will meet our baby boy in 4 weeks at the most! I can't wait to see what he looks like and hold him in my arms.

That's all for now... sorry for long post, but there was so much to catch up on!

3D pics

Here are some 3D pics that I had mentioned in my previous post. The boy has some full lips like his mama and I'm sure he'll have his daddy's nose (aka the Abbott nose). haha! These were taken a couple weeks ago... Enjoy!









Hope everyone has a happy and safe 4th!!!
