Lots of changes and updates in the past week. We visited the Dr. on Tuesday and were informed-that our son is measuring large. This is not all that shocking given, Devon was a 10 pound plus baby and I was average sized at 7lbs. They determined we are measuring large we were 30 weeks and measuring at 35 weeks so they will keep an eye on it and determine at 36 weeks via Ultrasound if we are moving our due date or just giving birth to a toddler!!
We also bought a home! This was on Thursday night and are very excited about it. We expect to close in the end of August and get moved shortly before our little one joins the family. This will make for a very busy August and September but, maybe it will make the time fly by so DJ can join us.
Overall feeling pretty good and healthy- walked quite a bit last week and the picture attached is from Devon's "20 minutes of fitness" that Running Room had Wednesday night. It was great to have friends (Kris, Jay, Rebecca and Evan) along with family (Gwen and Chloe) to walk with us.
DJ is moving constantly less kicking more moving and "swimming". This morning he wanted to kick so he was displaying his independence. He is also constantly growing or at least I feel like I am constantly growing and getting larger!

29 weeks and 2 days
Hard to believe we are technically past the 7 months date. We are busy touring hospitals to determine where to give birth-btwn Mercy and Lutheran. We will decide by end of the week and then start our prenatal classes and breast feeding classes.
We are also searching diligently for a new home, we have put an offer in recently--and hope that is all works out. I am anxiously waiting for the home and room to set up little DJ's crib and hang all the clothing we have. We are going to wrap up the baby registry soon and then get it out to everyone!
Feeling pretty good have had a few stretches at what I am assuming is Braxton Hicks. But, overall I have mostly good days. I have figured out that if I keep moving about slowly throughout the day and not sit to0 long I feel better at the end of the day. So the warehouse may be getting more and more help!
No new pics to update yet but, will get some out in the next week we hope!

7 months-84 days to go
Hard to believe we are 7 months pregnant. We go to the dr. tomorrow for our normal check-up and then will continue for check-ups every two weeks till week 36. Not much has changed on the baby front, he is constanly moving (a good thing) and I have been feeling pretty well still. However, I am more tired than I had been in the past few months. We are looking forward to going to the lake this coming holiday and I have even sprung for a maternity suit to catch some rays!
We have narrowed down our home search and will more than likely be putting in an offer this week. Once that is underway, then I feel we can start getting ready to move. I cannot wait to get the baby's room put together. I am anxious for the crib to be setup and clothing to be hung in the closet. I guess this is what they call nesting!
Once Devon and I make it through the move the baby will be the home stretch! I am really quite lucky how well I feel and while my appetite is increased I am still able to get out and walk just not as far and not as fast.
Got a very nice glider this weekend at a garage sale and have been practicing my baby rocking ....so far he seems to like it.
If anything new happens at the dr, we will keep you posted.

Almost 27 weeks
We will be 27 weeks on Saturday but, given that is our wedding day-so probably won't have time to post! We are doing great, looking forward to the wedding and seeing our family and friends.
The baby is officially showing all the time, not much you can do to hide a pregnancy when you are over 6.5 months. Baby Mau is also a moving fiend-however the schedule matches mine for the most part. We have only had one night of early wakeup at 245am the baby decided that was enough sleep and we were up for the day. Good thing the sun rises early-we were out walking at 445 that morning!
We will have some more pictures after the weekend to update the baby bump and family.
