Genevieve Simone

Well, finally here are some pictures of our sweet little Genevieve. She was born July 2 at 8:29 am weighing 7 pounds 8 ounces and was 20 and 1/2 inches long. She has a very healthy head of dark hair with blond at the roots and we just love every inch of her! So far she has been right on track with everything and my milk came in today (day 3), so hopefully she'll start gaining some weight over the next week. We came back home today and my mom and dad and sister are here helping which is such a blessing. Alex has been such a help thinking of every detail for my comfort and working tirelessly. I am so blessed to have such a dear, sweet husband and he is a wonderful father to boot! I will try to post more pics as we go along, but so far we are still trying to catch up on sleep as you might imagine. Enjoy the pics!

Well everyone, here is the final product. We've come a long way! Headed to the hospital in the morning to FINALLY meet our new little one! Stay tuned for baby pictures tomorrow!

Nursery!

We finally got to finish the nursery. Steve did a great job, it is so beautiful and cozy! The painting in the doorway turned out great, and the bedding and chair is so perfect. Now all we need is Genevieve! Come on out little girl!

Tennis Shower

My sweet tennis girls threw me and Genevieve a little party at Kickingbird Tennis Center. It was so good to see everyone, and made me anxious to get back playing! As usual the girls represented with TONS of delicious food and gourmet cupcakes. What more can a prego girl ask for?

Yum!!

Cute decor.

Baby Belly 36 Weeks!

Ok, so the belly is in full force! I am feeling like prego-zilla these days. Run for your lives! Just 4 more weeks to go. New things this month have been lots of pushing from Genevieve. I think she must be as uncomfortable as I am! And baby hiccups about 5 times a day. Overall I really can't complain, she has been a good girl:) We will meet her soon!

Baby Belly 32 weeks

Well, as you can see, Genevieve and I have done quite a bit of growing the past 5 weeks! She gets bigger everyday I think. It feels like it anyway! Just 8 more weeks!
