Drop It Like Its Hot

First and foremost, Happy New Year to everyone. We are enjoying these spring like temps in North Carolina this week. On the pregnancy front, we do have an update for the new year. Last week Kristy was at her (now weekly) doctor's appointment for the 35 week check up. It was revealed that the fetus has dropped (also known as lightening or engagement). Depending on where you read, this can mean that Tanner is about 2-4 weeks away from showtime. However, one of our doctors noted that he could be born tomorrow and everything would be fine. We know what you are all thinking... it may still be another 4 weeks before he is born. Babies tend to engage much earlier in first time moms.

Knowing all of this we began picking up the pace of preparations knowing that it actually could be anytime now. We started this weekend by putting the final touches on Tanner's nursery. With the exception of some minor organization, the room is ready for arrival. We also made one of our weekly trips to Target to get all of the supplies for the hospital. Kristy now has all of the essentials for her stay and Tanner's outfits are packed. This week Matt will be working on getting the car seat in the car and finding hospital supplies for himself (Red Bull and protein bars!)
