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.

New Year's Eve

The boys: Justin, Rober, Blaine, Trey and Joe



Justin and I New Year's Eve 2011. 31 weeks pregnant.

The Girls: Rachel holding Gracey, Olivia, Ginger, Roxxy, and me.

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.

29 Weeks!!!

29 Weeks and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, except for Baby Goertz :)

The 28 week doctor's appointment was on Tuesday and everything is moving along smoothly! Her heartbeat is 161 beats per minute. YAY!!

I seriously yelled, "Yes!!" When she told me my cervix was closed. I guess you never know how you're going to react until you're in that situation. But I assure you that if everything is still closed in 11 weeks, yes will not be the response.

The glucose test came back normal, so we get to sit back and enjoy the final 11 weeks of pregnancy.

The hustle and bustle of Christmas has moved in and as I was wrapping presents on the floor last night, not being able to reach the end of the wrapping paper for the big belly in the way, I just had to smile. The weird thing about pregnancy is that as it is getting closer to the end, the less the heartburn and the middle of the night dance parties bother me.

Because one day very soon, she will be here-which will be amazing and please understand that I cannot wait to meet her and see her, but it will be completely different, so while she is always with me and I get to feel her practicing her moves throughout the day, I will smile and savor this time, because I will never have it back.

Thank you God for this blessing and the blessing of being pregnant. May I remember your love and grace at 12:30 in the morning when I awake from heartburn and dance parties.
