Day before induction

So, I wanted to add pictures of some of the ultrasounds of the baby because I haven't shared very much of them (unless you happen to be one of those people I've been incessantly texting with while pregnant..=D). 

Here are my weekly belly photos starting from week 8 to week 38. We are doing week 39's photo at the hospital, since that is the day of our induction - March 20.

I also wanted to share some photos of his nursery and the the random things we have for him. I can't thank our family and friends enough for all of the amazing gifts we've received through the mail. Our little man is spoiled with love, clothes (3/4 of them are Oliver's!), toys, and baby accessories!

Beyond the gifts, I want to thank everyone for all the texts, emails, phone calls, Voxers, FB messages, etc. since we've moved to PA and became pregnant. I've received so many warm wishes, check ups on how the pregnancy has been, how Lara and I are adjusting or have adjusted to living in Altoona, or just to say hello. It means a lot to a pregnant lady! Moreover, it definitely reminds me that distance and time do not dictate the strength of friendships or family. I feel very blessed to have our family and friends.

Before I go, I wanted to list some things I will miss about being pregnant: doing our morning shower routine where I sing to my belly and I can get him to stop kicking like crazy; putting my bare belly on Lara's back at night and he'll start kicking up a storm every single time; Lara and I sharing very eclectic music with him and seeing what his response was like; Lara telling him stories or about her day before we go to bed, and noticing that he really responds to her voice; being surprised by his changes in utero (preferred positions, change in hiccup frequency, and his sleep/mostly awake cycles). Man, we love this boy so much! We cannot wait to meet him :)

Anyway, wish us well tomorrow and hopefully the next post will be a ridiculous amounts of photos of our baby boy!
