March Madness


Well Spring and Summer are here, and so is the third trimester! Which means Poppy is closer to sooner than later, which is a lot to take in! We are actually 10 weeks away from the due date! Dan is working on the nursery, we just finished our Bradley Birthing Class (what a GREAT experience for the two of us) and we learned why they call baby showers showers! We have so many wonderful, loving, and generous people in our lives to love and support us in this next stage of life and we couldn't be more thankful! We also had a chance to take one last little vacation without our little addition to Sevierville, TN for a nice long weekend in a beautiful cabin in the woods! I should mention too that we are proud of our Hoosiers and their great season!
In this last stretch we hope to do the following:
1. Make and freeze some meals
2. Finish the nursery
3. SLEEP
4. Prepare for baby mentally, physically, and emotionally!!!
5. Hear and see the next baby Thompson, due April 11th! We hope for a smooth, quick, and healthy delivery for Jamie and their sweet little girl!
6. Any other suggestions!?

Look at all the people that came out to celebrate baby Poppy! We are soooo lucky to have so many loving and generous people in our lives! THANK YOU!!!
Here are the lovely ladies that created and provided the BEST baby shower ever! Leader of the pack was Judy and she did SO much to make the shower a wonderful, fun, exciting, and overwhelmingly awesome event!
Just SOME of the great people I got to see and celebrate with . . . I realized I did not get as many pictures as people there! I especially appreciated the long distance travellers and baby Annalyn and her momma coming up for their first road trip!
Yummy food, cute decorations, Poppy and Alphabet theme! So much fun!

We'll back to update again soon!

February 2012

So February was a lot more fun this year than usual! There isn't too much to say, but a lot to see! We were able to spend a lot of time with family & friends as you will see (and won't see because we haven't been as good at taking pictures every where we go). Not only did we get to see some far away family, but a new member (sudo-cousin) was welcomed into the world on February 18t, Annalyn Cynthia Eddie! I couldn't be more proud of my BFF Ashley and we are so excited for her and Mike as they start their life as a family . . . and we realized we are soon to follow! She is beautiful and absoutley perfect!

I'm wrapping up my first class, already I know. It has been a whirl-wind and isn't slowing down! We've started looking for daycare already for Poppy, and my stomach seems to keep growing! Poppy is definitely kicking now too! Dan was able to get his first feel at the Down the Line Concert (Sunny Taylor got baby moving)! We have a music lover! It is so much fun being able to feel and see this little, big, thing moving around inside. It sure does help with the reality check!
Enjoy the pictures :)
Surprise quick visit from Jamie and Molly! Molly is SO dang cute!
It doesn't happen enough, but the Meyer crew together!
Baby Annalyn
He looks good with a little one doesn't he!

Down the Line
  
Poppy has a lot of clothes!  It is gender neutral . . . to our taste at least!
Sneak Peek into the nursery! We have to finish our alphabet wall (blue wall) among a few other things!


See you soon and happy Spring!
