7 months down and 2 months to go!

28 weeks and counting. This has been by far the fastest 7 months of my life. I feel like it was just yesterday that I was taking 3 pregnancy tests to confirm our hopes :) Things are starting to all come together, I have my work baby shower this Wednesday being thrown by a fellow nurse at work (Rickie) who has become a great friend. And then my family/friend shower the following weekend, which I am also looking forward too!
Ty's Uncle Dustin has been hard at work in his room, painting an amazing mural! (See pics below that Drew has posted) His room is slowly starting to fill, with blankets, diapers, toys, bedding, gifts, etc. Its all seeming a little more real every day! We are so excited we can hardly stand it! I start next Friday with my every 2 week doctor appt's. as opposed to every 4 weeks!
I am fortunate enough to work with amazing people (Stacy & Vickie) who always do Ultrasounds for me, so I can see the little guy moving around in there as often as I want! In addition to the excitement that Drew & I have, this pregnancy as also showed me that I have amazing friends. Thank you to my fellow nurses, doctors, tech's, Ultrasound Tech's, and director at work who have all become little 'Mother Hens' to me and protecting me from the crazy people out there and all of risks that come with working in an Emergency Room; they won't let me lift people, push stretchers, or take care of certain people with particular diseases to avoid the risk of me getting sick! Ty and I really apprciate it, we love you!
To Vanessa, who is constantly reassuring me that everything is fine, and that although she worried about all of the same little things while she was pregnant... its normal and EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE FINE! :) And also for lending your husband to us to allow him to create Ty's room.
To Dustin, for taking the time to do Ty's room... its awesome!
To our families for the constant support, and help! And to all of out other friends who are always checking up on us, to see how I am feeling and to make sure everything is right on track!
Also to Drew who remains to be so patient throughout this whole process with me and my pregnancy emotional ups and downs! Your the greatest and I can't imagine going through this with anyone else! I LOVE YOU.
I am done rambling now, 2 months to go wahoo.. and Im thinking it will fly by with the Holidays right around the corner!
Drew will post picture tonight when he gets home of my 7mo. baby bump!
