Well we have made it. We are officially full term. Basically that means if Liam were to decide to come into the world today he should be fully developed. His official due date is March 14th so all bets are on as to when he will come. Bags are packed and we are ready though for maternity leave reasons I would love him to stay in as long as possible!
I have also entered into the wonderful world of swelling. My feet are HUGE and it is not fun. My hands are also a little swollen but no where near my feet. The doctors have not been concerned so far. I did have to go today because of a blood pressure scare. I looked at my feet and noticed they looked worse than normal. I went down to the school nurse and she got a high blood pressure reading so I called the doctor and they told me to come after lunch. I went in and everything checked out fine so we will just keep an eye on it.
I'll leave you with a full term dropped belly picture feet and a swollen feet picture.
Follow us as we begin an exciting new chapter in our lives and welcome and baby boy in March.

So Blessed
Wow Liam is such a blessed and spoiled little boy already! We have had some amazing baby showers and I wanted to recap them so I can always remember them.
Our first shower was our church shower. St. Andrews has been my church family for 14 years now and I am so glad that Dusty loves it as much as I do. I was truly overwhelmed by the generosity at our shower. Liam got a lot of adorable outfits, his bathtub, his swing, bottles, pacifiers, a diaper bag just for Dusty and lots of other great things. Here are a few pictures
Needless to say we are beyond blessed with amazing friends, family and work places! Thank you to everyone!

Our next shower was a combined going away/baby shower and Dusty's old job at Mental Health. Dusty just recently got a new job at The Woodlands at Furman, he really loved his job at Mental Health but this new job is a much needed blessing and so far he seems happy. Everyone at Mental Health was so sweet and I was so glad I got to take the day off to go up there and see everyone. They gave us Liam's bouncer, bottles, and a dish washing basket. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures but it was so sweet and I was sad to see Dusty leave such a great group of people.
My next shower was my friend/family shower. It was hosted by my Sister-In Law Gaby and one of my best friends Chelsea. It was a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme, which is my favorite book, and was amazing! Those two ladies need to go into party planning! Everything fit the theme and I was blown away. Liam got so many great things from so many wonderful people! He got lots of adorable outfits, his boppy pillow, his crib mobile, his bumpo, Allison made him lots of adorable blankets, hats, mittens, leg warmers, Amanda painted him a picture of the Very Hungry Caterpillar. My mom and dad, Lee and Gaby and Grandparents went in together and got the car seat and stroller. We are just beyond blessed! Here are some pictures from that shower be ready it's a lot!

Our last shower was my school shower. I work at an amazing school with an amazing group of people. This shower was a combined shower for me and Dusty and Matt and Monica Critell. Matt and I carpool and Monica is due just a few days before me, our babies will be staying with Andrea together. The shower was a lot of fun. We played the melted chocolate in the diaper game. Liam got a lot of giftcards and diapers and my first grade team got our monitor. It was a great shower.
Needless to say we are beyond blessed with amazing friends, family and work places! Thank you to everyone!
