Baby Stats

This is our baby boy, isn't he perfect?? I personally think he has my chin and an Anderson nose. But his eyes and mouth are definately Dixon's. I can't stop staring at this picture, I am in awe at how much we can see through an ultrasound!!! Here is the most recent stats:

-He is weighing in at 3 lbs 10 oz

-He is measuring about 32 weeks, although I am only a little over 30 weeks now

-His Kidneys are finally starting to look good, they have been measuring big.. which had the dr. slightly concerned. But they finally are starting to look good!!

-His head is measuring big... just like his dad!

-He has moved on from karate kicks to stretching his feet out against my stomach and sticking his bum out against my tummy.

-I carry him really high, so he's been kicking my ribs a lot

-His head sits right on my bladder, the past three ultrasounds that I have had, that's where his head has been

But the best part is... he's ours!! I love him already!! I feel like I already know him, he definately has a personality of his own! I feel so lucky to be his mom!!

Thought you might like to meet him...

28 weeks down, 12 more to go!! Grow baby boy grow!

Happy Mother's Day!

I am so grateful for two wonderful mothers in my life who are such amazing examples!! I love them so much, and I'm so grateful for their selfless acts... and endless service!!

I hope I can be more like them... preferably by December 10 because that is when I am going to be a mom!! I am so excited to join the club and be a Mom, what an amazing blessing!! Baby Leavitt has been makin me so tired, and so nauseas, but I can't complain... I'm so blessed!

Happy Mother's Day!!

I have to admit, one of my "not so great traits" is the fact that I can get buried in a book... for a few days. It's similar to hibernating, when I pick up a good book, you might as well say good-bye to me for a few days (i'm not a very fast reader.) My latest "addiction" is this book, THE FIRM. Dixon has been begging me to read it for a long time now and I finally gave in. Oh my goodness, it is a huge page turner!!! I am happy to say that I am out of hibernation, but looking for my next good read...

I think my husband is glad to have me back;)

Quincy, California

This place is called Quincy, California. And this picture does not in any way do it justice. This past weekend, we went with Wade and Carolyn to Quincy for Dixon's great grandmother's funeral. It is absolutely gorgeous there, freezing in the winter, but gorgeous! I seriously contemplated about getting buried there... for a brief moment. It was such a great time to see the Leavitts, i've been going through some serious Leavitt family withdrawls... I haven't seen them since Christmas!!

Thank you Wade and Carolyn for letting us come with you guys... we sure had a good time with you.

PS I may or may not have gotten locked out of our hotel room and Dixon didn't hear me knocking so I sat down in front of the door with the ice bucket in hand and enjoyed my ice for ten... maybe fifteen minutes before Dixon figured out I was missing. Good times!

Mmmm

Fact: I LOVE pancakes... I could possibly eat them for every meal. I don't know what happened, but when I turned 15 I suddenly went crazy over pancakes. I love to eat them plain, with peanut butter on top, with syrup, with jam... with everything!!!

Rumor: Pancakes taste better when they are free

Fact: Pancakes taste TEN times better when they are FREE!!

Got to love free pancake day at IHOP last Tuesday, I almost wanted to ask for a second plate, but I exercised my self control! Pancakes make me happy. The End.

Our new favorite thing

By the looks of this picture, you would think that he doesn't really like his stroller...



...but I promise you he does. He LOVES it! And we love our walks!
