99 days...WHAT....

So I can't believe that we are only 99 days away from the due date....I know in some ways that is a lot but to me under 100 days is nothing!  We can't believe how fast it has gone...but so slow at the same time!  Everything is good with us....we are working....going to school and hanging out our friends Amanda and Robert.  I am having fun doing water aerobics and walking...trying to stay active....Amanda and I even did a 5K yesterday morning!  Josh has been super busy with group projects....he didn't get home before 5 all week last week...which is a LATE day for him.  He is also meeting with the professor that he will be doing his Thesis with!  

I go for my 1 hour glucose testing on Thursday....let me tell you how excited I am about that!  As long as everything comes back fine and I don't have to go back and sit for the 3 hour one I will be fine.

Adah is getting alot stronger with her kicks.  She was having a party the other night.....she would stop flipping and kicking.....Josh found it humorous.  We also discovered that she doesn't like anyone or anything to touch my stomach(thats my girl).....when my stomach touches Josh at night from turning over or something she kicks the crap out of him.....so we usually wake up laughing.....also my friend Amanda touched my stomach before the race yesterday and Adah practically kicked her and off....I like to say she is my little protector......she knows that I don't want my belly touched so she is fighting everyone off for me.  She kicks some when I touch her but she usually is more playful when it is me b/c I push back and she knows its me and will play games with me.

This week we will be cleaning and Josh will be getting ahead on homework and stuff.....our friends and old neighbors Christie and Eric are coming to visit us from Connecticut....Christie is coming to help me play and shop.....Eric is coming to help Josh move some big things around to get the baby room set....and to give Josh someone to play video games with so he doesn't have to go and play baby with me.  They are coming on Saturday so Josh and I will be going out on Friday night to celebrate Valentines day.....not sure what we are gonna be doing exactly yet....we are making it a low key V-Day....no gifts this year....we are just gonna hang out and be with each other....probably go to a nice dinner and maybe a movie.....we will see.  

Hope everyone has a good week!

A glimpse of baby Adah's room....

We are not even close to being done with Adah's room but I wanted to post some pictures of what we have done so far.....the walls are bare....we are waiting on the wall art wording that will go on the wall behind the crib...it should be in sometime next week.....we really wanted to try and get the big items first and then worry with the little things......

                        

- This is a picture of half of the room....the crib is an expresso finish
- the curtains like before are made by my Aunt Kathy......
- Josh picked out the rug...but it really looks cute(pictures don't do it justice)
- the glider/ottoman & the little lamb blanket are my fav(thanks mom & dad)
- the lamb on the floor by the crib was given to Adah by my parents
- the teddy bear was a gift to me from Josh forever ago...
- the doll in the crib belonged to my Granny (great grandmother)

                                                 

Thank you to my grandma and papa for the crib bedding....we love it!!!!

The other half of the room is not pictured yet....it has the side table next to the rocker, the dresser/changer combo that is piled with cloths and other things, and the shelving unit that we got for extra storage space....that side of the room doesn't have the furniture in their proper place because we are waiting on help for Josh to carry down the TV and Entertainment center that we had in that room before it became baby room....so as soon as Mr. Eric Frett gets here(our friends Christie and Eric from Connecticut are coming to visit in 2 weeks) the boys will move the furniture around!  I will be sure to post more pictures of the room as we get things more together.  

Hope everyone has a great super bowl weekend!  We are going to be busy with water aerobics, soccer games, and enjoying our heat wave again.....gotta love California in the winter!

The long awaited and dreaded pregnancy photo....

Here I am at 24 weeks.......huge I know....I wanted to crop off my head in the photo but Josh wouldn't let me.....oh well....! Oh and you all can thank Josh because he made me post a picture....

Enjoy :)

Little Peanuts name......

Well....we still have not decided on a middle name for our little girl but decided to go ahead and let you know her first name. I have always been one for old names....and names that are not popular.....so one night while Josh and I were reading the bible we came across the name Adah.....I was like oh...thats kinda cute....Josh wasn't too into it....but this was before we knew that we were having a girl...and before we were pregnant. So after a long time of talking about names.....Josh finally was like...you know I really like the name Adah....so once we found out that we were expecting a little girl we knew exactly what we wanted to name her. When we decided to name her Adah and told my parents and grandparents....and ended finding out that my grandma was born in Ada, Oklahoma.....and that on my grandfathers side I had an aunt Adah...but she spelled it Ada.....we like the spelling Adah because that is how it is spelled in the bible......we also really fell in love with the meaning of the name Adah: Beautiful, ornament, Adornment....We have gotten a lot questions of where in the bible Adah is found...it is in Genesis and Adah is the name of the wives of Lamech and Esau. Another cool fact we found out was the Adah is the second female name mentioned in the bible...the first of course being Eve.

As soon as we decide on the middle name I will be sure to post and give you all the information on her middle name as well!

I know I have promised pictures....hopefully I will get Josh to take some today and post them.
