Shower Pics & an Update

Thanks to my wonderfull BFF and sisters, I was able to enjoy my Saturday relaxing just down the street with family and friends. I absolutely loved all the little kiddos there (thanks Avery, Norah, Nolan, and Caitlyn for all your help with my gift opening... and Jackson for being so lovable and cuddly). Baby Boy Riggs was spoiled with gifts as was Caitlyn... Thank you everyone!
*********************************
I'm 36 weeks now!!! From conception to February 18th, it seemed as though this was the world's fastest and most uneventfull pregnancy. Then came February 18th, 19th, and 20th (all the days I was in the hospital trying to stop preterm labor)... since arriving home from the hospital, time has slowed to snail speed. I have counted each day as a blessing for my little boy to continue to develop inside me, but I am growing very anxious to meet him. Last week I was taken off the tocolytic (medicine to prevent labor I was taking every 4 hours) and this coming week, I get to return to work as a regular Registered Nurse that gets to care for patients instead of being forced to sit at a desk making phone calls and doing paperwork. My doctor is letting my body and baby boy do what they want to do now... and boy oh boy is it making me excited and anxious as each day passes! We have had our bags minimally packed and in the truck since the day after we got home from the preterm hospital scare... Since my showers, the bags have probably become overpacked now with everything all in precious baby boy blue. We're ready to meet our son so continue to check in for any exciting updates!
