Less Than 2 Weeks???

I had my OB appointment today... I learned that I am having very hard and more frequent contractions than I should be for how far along I am. I have also already begun to dilate some and "thin out" significantly. The baby is in the correct position and has dropped a ton. My doctor informed me that I will likely deliver around April 8th which is before my due date! I am excited, nervous and I am starting to feel like I should begin to prepare for this child!! AHHH!! I feel like I have done nothing. I am trying to remember all of the things I need to do before this happens. I already have pretty much everything I need because I obviously just did all of this with Dawson 17 months ago but I know that there is probably some huge thing that I am forgetting about. This baby already has a car seat, bed and clothing (washed and ready). I know need to start preparing my hospital bag... is there anything I am forgetting??? HELP!

My Dad Should Be Proud

My Grandma always had a million plants in her house when I was growing up and she loved one kind in particular... the Christmas Cactus. It seemed like she had an entire collection of just those. She passed on this last year and I think that most of her children and grandchildren have been given a start from her plants. I received mine from my parents when I got married 4 years ago. I DO NOT HAVE A GREEN THUMB!! I have tried really hard to just keep this one alive since it is very special to me... but in the last year it has really grown and in fact it has started to bloom!! AHHH! I am so excited! My dad has a few of these plants and does really well with them, I think that he will be proud!

I Love Getting New Stuff

I got a couple new backdrops that I wanted to try out... I know this is a little funny with a little boy but I really wanted to see what they looked like with the flowers. I thought it turned out pretty cute! By the way I think this is quite possibly one of the hardest ages to photograph. URG frustrating!

I Want To Be Like Daddy

I have been finding Dawson just like this almost every day for some time now... It is obvious that he was to be just like his daddy! Notice his DUKE hat, large shoes and his own little cell phone on the ground that he is constantly carrying around also just like dad. I thought it was so cute!
