School Shower

Melissa feels so blessed to work with such an amazing group of people. She landed in such a great place after being displaced and works with the best grade level and just loves her school. Today her grade level threw her a shower at school. They did such a fabulous job and we are so thankful for their hard work. We are so thankful for all the wonderful presents we received. Here are some pictures from today!

33 weeks... and the countdown begins...

Melissa had her appointment today and all went pretty well. Everything measured much better today and she got to see Olivia in action on the ultrasound. Olivia was hiccuping and then kept sticking her tongue out. Olivia weighed 4 pounds and 7 ounces and is in the 50th percentile for her weight. Dr. Watkins said that she might be on the smaller side. Melissa has had some really swollen feet and legs the past few days so the doctor really wants her off her feet as much as possible. She only wants her working regular work hours and nothing extra. We are now going weekly to the doctor and have been told to be prepared to go EARLY!

Here are Olivia's glamor pics. They are not the clearest but we tried to get one of her with her mouth open sticking her tongue out.
