Girl's Weekend

Another weekend has passed too quick. We had such a good time this weekend having Girls night out . We ended up getting a cottage , thanks to Robey , out in McKinney. So we all got together and had dinner and then stayed up really late CHATTING the night away. It was so awesome to have a weekend with my Girls before Harper comes.Brad and the boys did the same, and I believe they had a great time as well. I would love to post some pictures but we didn't take a single one.:) oops ... I totally meant to but didn't even think about it once we all got together. So it's week 38 and I had an appointment today. Everything looked great so here are this weeks stats.
HR:150
Total weight: 15 lbs and holding!
Dilation: ABSOLUTELY none , haha! oh well..
Harper: Still BREECH...
So we are so glad everything looks great, Michael is going on vacation next week and is really hoping to be here so we will continue to shoot for our c/s date June 7th. This weekend we also finished the belly cast. We had fun painting it. We had a bird theme of course. We are definitely not artists by any means but we like it so here are a few pictures of Harper's Belly Cast.









And just for fun, here is an updated Harper Shot...




We continue to feel so blessed and hope everyone has a wonderful week and great Memorial weekend. Keep checking and I promise to keep everyone updated if anything changes.

A little weekly update!!

Well, we are approaching a whole new life quickly! We had a doctor's appointment today and everything was great .
This weeks stats:
Week :37
Total weight gain: 15 lbs
Cravings: Sweets :) of all sorts!
HR: 160
We are still on tract for our June 7th delivery date, Miss Harper continues to be breech and comfortable. Having some braxton hicks contractions but nothing with pain. We had an eventful weekend. Little Mr. Walker's shower was this weekend and we got the chance to get together with a lot of our friends and celebrate his arrival in July, and of course he got some really cute stuff!! Mom was able to come up and hang out with us as well. I had ordered a belly cast online and we had the best time doing it. We haven't finished it yet because we are going to paint it, but I promise to post a picture when we complete it. I think this silly stuff is so much fun and it will be fun to compare the difference in other pregnancies. Also we had the chance a few weeks ago to have some Maternity pictures taken with Erica May Photography. She will be taking Harper's pictures for the first year of life and we had a great time taking them at a nature reserve in Garland. Other than Brad's horrible allergies and my minor Poison Ivy incident the pictures turned out great and well worth the poison ivy treatment. :)

So here are a few pics...





I have been buying some really cute things for Harper's Newborn pictures and can't wait to see how those turn out. So for the next few weeks I am planning on resting and finishing up some cleaning. We will keep everyone posted if anything changes. Have a good week !!

Harper's New Safe Car

So a few months ago Brad started talking about how his FJ Cruiser wasn't all that family oriented, and I guess up until that point I hadn't really thought about it. So for the next few months he has been hinting at me that he thought we needed a really safe SUV ! But with all this said, I started looking at the FJ and we really did disliked that Suv. The backseat is so hard to get into and the shape of the car has so many blind spots that it all really did make since. So I told Brad to start looking and we could talk about it. After some research Brad really decided he liked the Toyota Highlander. It was the size we liked and had a lot of the features we were looking for. So for the last few weeks Brad has been negotiating with dealerships and looking for the car he wanted. Today he called me and asked me to go look at the one he had picked out. It was perfect and I love it. Its so nice and I can not wait to go on our first family trip in it.. It's dark grey and Limited edition so it has lots of bells and whistles that he loves. He is already telling me he is ready to put the car seat in it !! So we are really excited now to bring home Harper in her new SAFE CAR!! Cant lie , I may be a wee bit jealous that Brad gets to drive it most of the time. So here are some pictures of the new family car!






And Harper's Room Status:
Complete - (except for repairs to carpet from our little construction )! Which is turning out to be harder to fix than predicted but should be done soon . So we are ready for you Harper , when you decided to come!!

Here are some final pictures! Hope you love it as much as we do.. Sorry it is kinda hard to really get an idea of what it looks like because the shape of the room makes it hard to get large pictures. But the Chandelier does have a dimmer set up and at night its so cute as a night light.
