The Joys of Remy

Well we are in love! In the almost 2 weeks since we've met Remy, this is what we have learned:

She is perfect and so wonderful
Nicknames: Sweet Cheeks and Little Peacock (when she cries)
Diaper time is Daddy time
Making food takes more time than we thought, the gift of food has been amazing!
We both are excellent nappers now
Little girl clothes are way too cute
School is going to be a lot more challenging now!
She is a Daddy's girl
We apprecaite all help
We didn't think we could love each other any more, but we do, and we love her so much!

Poppy is here!

Remy Ann Niederman

8 pounds and 13 ounces

She is so sweet and has the prettiest smile!

Going home (even though we kinda wanted to stay with our nurses!!!)

Then we got home and realized how cute she looks in her nursery!

Thanks Aunt Ashley for the welcome home sign and doll!

Thursday, May 17, 2012

May has been beautiful in Bloomington and we couldn't have asked for more as we spend our last few weeks together as only a couple! We are in the final stretch, so I don't know when you will hear from us next! We do know that we are at sooner than later! We are just hoping for a healthy and "nice" delivery! Once baby has arrived, we will post pictures as soon as possible (which I don't promise to be quickly)! Ultimately we just want a healthy baby, but if Poppy arrives before June I won't be sad (I say this while I have some feet stuck in my ribs)!

My dear friend Susan has created team on the "WhatFriendsDo" webpage, feel free to check it out as she will set up essentially a way to help page for us! http://www.whatfriendsdo.com/babypoppy/team/

Enjoy the pictures below! Hope that you hear from us soon!

Today, May 17th, we celebrate our 4th anniversary.
This picture reminds me of why this was the BEST day of my entire life!

The nursery! Just waiting on baby!

Dan has expanded his gardening thanks to finding his grandpa's gardening book!
I look forward to his hard work!
Henry is soaking in the last of his freedom, and we enjoyed a great weekend with my dad Bloomington style!

Need I say anything about this? I'm a very pregnant lady here!
May 16th was our sigh of relief into full-term, which means 3 weeks until the due date!

Dan ran in the Indy Mini-Marathon and did SO GREAT!
Dan's parents met up to support him too and we were able to enjoy some good time with them too!
Dan ran his first mini-marathon (13.1 miles) in 1 hour and 55 minutes!
I was so proud I cried, mind you I am 9 months pregnant too.

Poppy Update

Exciting news today! We got to see baby Poppy!

Here are the stats:
Estimated weight: 5 pounds 8 ounces (yikes! BIG BABY)
Estimated arrival, by size guesstimate, June 2nd
Heart rate was 148
Position: Head down & back-up (yipppee)

Both momma and baby are healthy! The UltraSound shots below are pictures of pictures, so sorry for the low quality! But you can still see the cuteness!
I am still 100% convinced we will be welcoming the first boy into the Meyer family (I've also been the different one right?), but I have no confirmation of that!
More updates to come!

It hasn't been that long since the last shot, but here I am at 34 weeks (8.5 months)

Face shot of the lips and nose! Look at those smoochers!

April Update

Well April has been well so far! We had another shower and we've had lots of visitors to enjoy as well! The nursery is so close to being done, and we have another ultrasound coming up so be sure to touch base in a week or so to see how big baby Poppy is! I started a swim class, which is just awesome! I'm almost done with my second Clemson class, only 10 more to go until I graduate!?! Let's hope this next course is easy with Poppy's arrival! Dan is preparing for the min-marathon in Indy May 5th! And Henry, well, he got in a fight with a squirrel (and won) but hasn't changed much!

Exciting news though is that baby Thompson was born on April 3rd! Emily (Emmy) Jo was a healthy 8 pounds with a much nicer delivery for the hardworking momma this round! Eveyone is doing well, busy, but well! We send as much love as we can to Arizona and can't wait to meet little Emmy Jo!

Poppy and I enjoyed another wonderful shower in Bloomington! It was like a social craft hour with so many wonderful friends! I had a blast and I am so thankful for once again the wonderful generosity and love of the people in our lives!
