Gabrielle Marie Goertz

After Gabi's first bath.

Gabrielle Marie Goertz has arrived!!!

She was born at 9:49pm on February 15th, 2011. She was 19 inches long and weighed 7 lbs 9 ozs.

She is just perfect!!

My water broke at school at 12:10pm. Justin came and scooped me up and we headed for the hospital. We were in labor for 9 hours before we started pushing. Gabi arrived at 9:49pm. It was the greatest day of our lives. After Gabrielle arrived, Justin and I got to spend some quality family tme togther and prayed over our daughter the first of many times.

Gabi was welcomed by Glammy and G-Daddy, Yaya, Muggy, Aunt Staci, and Aunt Rachel. She has had many visitors, and as people visit, I will try to take their picture to record their first meeting together.

We love her so much and thank God for entrusting us with such a special gift.

38 Weeks

Here is the 38th week picture. We had to take it at the hospital because I went into labor the day we turned 38 weeks, Februay 15th, 2011.

36 Weeks!!

I can't believe that 36 weeks have gone by so quickly. In just a few short weeks our baby girl will be here. Heartburn is still rough and sleeping is a thing of the past, but we couldn't be happier. Oh and it has been decided that if she is born on Valentine's Day, her name will be Gabrielle Love instead of Gabrielle Marie.

I guess we'll see...

35 Weeks

35 Weeks!! Please know I am way too proud of this belly right now. The poor girl literally has no where

else to go!! Belly button has popped out and it is safe to say that this goose is cooked!!

We had my school shower on Friday and the shower in Tulsa on Saturday. What an awesome weekend!! Pic's to come. I am blown away by people's generosity. Justin and I got home yesterday afternoon and played with baby stuff all da and night-really.

Thank you to all the girls at work for such a fun shower and thank you to my best-Staci and all my close friends from college. I feel more like myself after spending a much needed weekend with you. I love you all so much. Wait until you see the pictures of the things that Jamie made for Gabi. Seriously I am speechless. Thank you all so much!! I love you!!

We are just about ready, and then all we'll need is a baby :)

34 Weeks

34 Weeks has finally arrived. Time feels like it is fly by really. We had a terrific time a Justin's work shower and at the shower the girls (Rachel, Roxxy, Ginger, and Cindy) threw on the 22nd. Wow!! I have never felt so special. Gabi is going to be spoiled by all the wonderful people in her life, that is certain!! Justin and I are having a blast trying to figure out how all the baby things work-it is too funny!!

Doctor said that he is a bit concerned about how big she is getting. He thinks she may be 5.5 or 6 lbs already. He has scheduled an ultrasound for February 9th, so we can see where we stand. Stay tuned, this could get exciting!!!

We can't wait to meet our precious girl, but would like to wait just a bit longer. At least until we get a car seat :)

Marvin F. Poer Baby Shower

We had the best time at the Marvin F. Poer Baby Shower. The ladies were so friendly and generous. We had a blast. Thank you all so much. Justin is so lucky to be able to work with each of you everyday. We can't wait to introduce Gabi to you.

33 Weeks

33 Weeks!! Only seven weeks to go. Feeling good. No stretch marks, but lots of swelling. Baby showers begin on Monday, and we are so excited!! Let the fun begin :)

32 Weeks

The belly is getting bigger and bigger. Only 8 weeks to go!!

31 Weeks

31 Weeks and can you see the pregnancy glow. The swelling is out of control now, but with school being back in session, hopefully the time will continue to go by quickly. I am actually looking forward to getting back in sape and working out after Gabi is born-please remind me of this then :)

Only 9 weeks left.

Happy 2011 Everyone!! Justin and I brought in the new year with some great friends and we had a blast. It was so funny because last year my friend and I were having such a good time, we thought throwing bread at eachother in the bathroom was a good idea and well this year we were celebrating over ginger ale. Although, I felt much better on January 1st.
