Today, we went to our long awaited, 34 week OBGYN appointment with ultrasound! The last time we were able to see Lana was at our 20 week ultrasound appointment so as you can imagine, we were pretty pumped to get to see how far she has come since then. The appointment went very well and to our surprise we got to see a 4D picture of our precious baby girl! Doctor Thorne said she is progressing at a healthy rate. We were also happy to discover that she has flipped head down in preparation for her birth day! At 34 weeks and 2 days, she weighed in at 5.9 pounds! At this rate, Doctor Thorne estimates she should be around 8 pounds at birth. It's a good thing we didn't invest in many new born outfits because there is a good chance she is going to skip right past them! It's still hard to believe that Lord willing, we will be meeting our precious little Lana in less than 6 weeks! Pictures are wonderful but we can't wait to meet our little miracle from God in person!

This weekend was a very special time for Brandon and myself. Our CrossPointe family threw us an absolutely beautiful baby shower and my mom, sis and nieces came all the way down from NC to share in this special memory.Brandon and I were completely humbled by the generosity and love poured on us by our friends and family.

I would like to express a sincere thank you to all of the hostesses for all the time and efforts that went into throwing us such a perfect shower. Also, thank you to all our friends and family for sharing in this memorable event and for all the beautiful gifts. Baby Lana is one blessed little girl and she doesn't even know it yet!

Okay, so I admit that I have been a total slacker when it comes to sharing bump pictures and updates on little Lana. I am now 31 weeks and 2 days prego and feeling great! Here are some pics my friend Ruby took with my iPhone during our daily walk at work. I have to say, she did an awesome job! Especially considering what she had to work with!
