We are finally back into our routine with work, pre-natal yoga and water classes, hanging out with the Platt's :) YEA! And Ryan with his workouts and teaching Tennis. Wednesday, we had our 30 week appointment, YEA!! I did find out after having taken the glucose testing twice I did finally pass with GREAT numbers!! Yippee :) I was elated when I heard that, so thank you for those of you who had us in your prayers. Matthew is still doing great, right on track with a heartbeat of 145 and my belly meauring right at 30cm for 30 weeks. Now we just have a little under 10 weeks to go! We need to get some furniture, so we can begin decorating his room. Ryan helped Kyle move out his things from his apartment on Wednesday and also moved out the guest room bed where Matthew will be. Maddie was sooo kind to store the bed for us in her house and then we will also be storing the extra dresser for that set as well. This way we hopefully will have plenty of room for Matthew and all his new things! Mom, we decided the purple room will stay as is, so you get your bed back :) Matthew's furniture I just do not think would have fit in the smaller room. Good for Ryan, I do not think he will have to paint now :) Well we are looking forward to all the fun stuff ahead. I have my FIRST shower tomorrow, so am looking forward to what fun things Matthew will get :) Tonight we will be hanging with the Platt's and I am looking forward to seeing baby Owen too :) More pictures of me and my belly should be coming soon.

Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

The Week after Graduation plus Memorial Day Weekend

The week after his graduation. Kendra and Mom were still in town, but Ryan and I had to continue with our work schedules :( . They came with me and my female co-workers to a Emily Couric Luncheon at the Omni which was very good about women in leadership. Monday night I had swimming after work, Tuesday worked and then Yoga, Wednesday worked had lunch with Kendra, Kyle and Mom. Wednesday Ryan left for Baltimore for work and Wednesday night I had a couple girls over to watch the taped Bachelorette :) Yes, I still like these shows! Wednesday Kendra left and Thursday my mom had to leave :( Thursday night Ryan and I had our last of our birthing classes, hopefully we will remember somethings, we did get to see a real infant only a few hours old and learned how to bathe her too. She was very cute and sweet. After we got home we packed for Memorial Day Weekend and finally, Friday, after a long day of work, we left for the Hodge's Lakehouse. That was a great weekend which allowed me to get some much needed sleep. We really enjoyed ourselves and it was very nice and relaxing! Thank you Meredith and Randy for the invite!

Kyle's Graduation Weekend

Sorry, but I am waiting on some more pictures for postings. All in all the weekend went very well. Dinner at Fossetts was amazing as usual. Saturday day turned out not to be too chaotic and we just had family arriving at different times. We had enough time in the day to get the house ready and then I helped with appetizers along with Sean and Shane, thank you guys! Kyle and Robert helped set the tables too and the evening turned out wonderfully!! My mom's Puerto Rican meal turned out amazing as usual; her and Kyle worked hard on Thursday and Fiday prior preparing. Sunday morning was his graduation ceremonies, on the lawn and then in UHall for History. Following those we headed to Sipps where we had nce apetizers and other enjoyed wine. Some people left for flights beteween those times. After Sipps we headed home for a much needed nap and then off to meet my dad's family at Bonefish which was fabulous too! Ryan and I even got a couple very nice gifts for Matthew from Whittney and her parents, then the light was back on Kyle for his special day! :)

Yesterday, we had our 28 week appointment! All is good I measure exactly 28cm, which means I am right on track! :) My mom and Ryan both came with me to this one. Ryan hasn't missed an appointment which has been real nice. We got to hear his heart beat which fluctuates between 135 and 150, in the past it has been around 145, so they say that is good. All seems to be going well and I am feeling great still. From now on I will be seeing my docs every other week which is exciting to see the progress. I do need to start watching my weight as I am getting close to the limit because I don't want to have to worry about any complications. Tomorrow I will have to get my 1 hour glucose test & RH Immune Globulin prophylaxis. Hoping and praying I do not fail the glucose test! I should find out early next week those results.

Tomorrow night my mom is taking my bro, Ryan and I to dinner, we are looking forward to that, then on Saturday is when all the family starts to arrive. It will be a crowded house! Saturday night is my bro's graduation dinner with my mom's family and then Sunday morning is his graduation following some time with my mom's family who is still left and then Dinner Sunday night with my dad's family for my bro's graduation. Monday comes around and I think it will just be my sis and mom in town til maybe Wednesday or so. Once everyone is gone Ry and I can start focusing on baby Matthew's room! I cannot wait :)

After this long weekend I am sure I will have plenty of pictures and of me and Matthew in my belly :) I will be sure to post after all the chaos.

We hope everyone else has a fabulous weekend!!!

This past weekend I babysat both Friday and Saturday nights. The kids were great both nights. I had a good time and enjoyed them! Saturday, I did laundry, some cleaning while Ryan mowed the lawn and took care of the exterior. Then we headed to the baseball game with Suzanne and her little one Owen, he is so cute and such a great baby! One day he will be teaching Matthew all the great stuff. After the game I went to the Boars Head Spa for my Pregnancy Massage. It was good, but definitely could have been better from all I have heard. Sunday, Ryan and I went to Richmond for most of the day looked at about 4 baby stores we do not have in Charlottesville, the last one finally had just what I was looking for, the bedding I originally had registered for, but then was discontinued. I looked all online and could not find it anywhere or anything I liked as much. This store had a few left in stock, so we got to buy it! Yippee, Matthew has bedding now; we just need his furniture :) Ryan and I are pleased and I know I am definitely looking forward to fixing up his room come June! Below is a picture of the bedding. We got the blanket, sheet, bumper, skirt and mobile. I have some ideas in mind for wall decorations which we will get later.

OH and I CANNOT forget, today is Kyle's 22nd Birthday!! Happy Birthday Kyle :)

Kelly & Matthew at 27 Weeks

Yea! Today is 27 Weeks and still feeling great and loving every moment! Tonight we have our 4 birthing class and it is hard to believe we only have 2 more after this one. And the last one is the tour and baby basics which is most exciting :)


Also, See Abby after her bath, Thank you mom, she loves her bath towel :)

Last weekend Ryan and I went to Fridays after Five and then McGrady's with Suzanne, Andy, Katie, Michael and met some other folks there too. We had a nice time, was the first and last free Friday I had for a while. Saturday, I had a Junior League Event to fix up Starr Hill Park in the morning, then finished some things around the house before leaving with Kyle to head to cousin Cory's college graduation from IUP. We weren't there for long, maybe 12 hrs or so, but it was nice to see everyone. Sunday we got back into town a little after 4pm and then I took a nap and then walked over to Kristen and Scott's place for a Mexican themed bday party for Scott :) Ryan and I had a good time, didn't stay too long as I wanted to get a good nights rest to start off the week. This week has been good, work, laundry and prenatal classes. All is going well!
