Addison moving around
This is Addison doing what I feel is karate. Looks like she is trying to find her own way out!
Getting Closer!
I had a Doctors appointment yesterday and she says that everything is going well. She finally took me off of bed rest! It was such a relief because I was just about to go crazy sitting around all the time! It looks like Addison could come at any time between now and 40 weeks. I am 35 weeks and 5 days now. I am hoping that she comes sooner than later because I am super uncomfortable and she is running out of room. When you hit 37 weeks you are considered full term. So I think that would be a great time, HAHA.

Addison's Room
As most of you know, we are living with my parents while we are looking for a house to live in. Luckily, my parents have an extra room that we could set up as the "Pseudo Nursery." Since everyone at the shower was so gracious we were able to completely set up Addison's room and it looks wonderful! I ended up making the wall letters and the canopy. We needed the canopy because we had to come up with a way to keep the cats out of the crib! It was actually easier and cheaper than I thought to make those, only about $60 altogether!

Baby Shower!
We had the baby shower today thrown by my Mom and Kristin! It was so much fun and we are pretty much set with all the things that we need to bring Addison into the world! A HUGE thanks to everyone for all of the wonderful gifts, we are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family! We played some interesting games. The first one was having everyone guess what chocolate bar was melted into the bottom of the diapers. It was hilarious watching everyone pass around the diapers and attempt to guess the candy by just looking at it or sniffing it. They would hand them around like it was a real dirty diaper, so funny. My good friend since Junior High, Bethany, won that game! The other game was passing around jars of baby food any everyone had to guess the flavor. I gotta tell you, most of those are terrible smelling, Yuck! Anyways a friend of ours, Shrina ,won that game. I think she had a leg up in the game though since she has two kids and one of them is only a year old. Congrats to both winners! It was a great day and there will be pictures to come!
