Two months to go!

Well, we have reached the two month mark from my due date. Boy, how time flies! I cannot believe I am almost 32 weeks along. Since my last blog in October, our little sweet pea has grown considerably and moves like crazy. My belly seems to have grown exponentially. I promise to post a pic of me soon for everyone to see.



Let's see... our lives have been filled with feeling the baby move and seeing her move. We try to distinguish which part of her we are feeling, but it is hard! We also settled on a name for our little girl- Julia Marie Hagood (well, Hagood obviously!) Baby Julia continues to grow, as she should, and my doctor comments how great my pregnancy has been going. I was tested for Gestational Diabetes and Anemia about a month ago, and happily found out I do not have either. We had our first baby showers, which were fun and overwhelming. My sister-in-law and two best friends threw us a shower at the beginning of December and my colleagues at work gave us a book shower. So, now the nursery is filled with books for Baby Julia to enjoy and lots of clothes and necessities. Now, if we can just get the crib built...life is so crazy and hectic!



Andrew and I feel so blessed to have some many people around us who care about us! What a great time of the year to be REALLY pregnant! It makes me emotional thinking about it, but its really amazing being pregnant around Christmastime and thinking about what Christmas is truly about. WOW!



Looking ahead to the following weeks, I just anticipate getting bigger. Lots to do still to get ready for our little girl! We're in the midst of taking Childbirthing classes (lots of information...), developing our birth plan, etc. It'll be here before we know it. Merry Christmas everyone!
