Baby Shower and 31 Week Ultrasound

Friday June 15th, I was 31 weeks and had my "last" ultrasound. Callie Rae was completely uncooperative, like usual. She is head down/face down so the only picture we got was of her foot. We saw that and the back of her head. Nothing more.
Here is her sweet baby foot <3
She weighed approximately 3lbs and 12oz, right at the 50th percentile. Her heart rate was 150-We didn't even get this until later at my actual OB appointment because during the ultrasound she moved too much for us to get an accurate reading. Dr Wingo said she was the perfect baby at this point! So exciting to know that all is going well. I did ask for another ultrasound though since we didn't see her much, and he said yes. How exciting! Not sure when it will be though. I go again in 2 weeks for the next checkup. And that's also when I am finished with work to finish getting ready for Callie's arrival. 

To help get ready to meet our baby girl, we had our first baby shower this past Saturday. It was hosted by our hometown church. Just family and friends as well as church members. We got soooo much stuff! Blessed beyond measures!!!  Of course, we keep getting more items. And our 2nd (and last) baby shower is this Saturday, where we live now, with friends and coworkers. Here are just a few photos from the shower.(Ok I said a few and ended up with 18 ha) Ignore me...I'm looking like a big old whale these days. If you can't tell, Winnie The Pooh was our theme :)



Just some of the gifts that were there once we arrived. Many more came after.
